Dan Cox on Crime

Accountability for youth crime; expand rec centers

Cox: I talked with the young people and they want accountability. They also need to have rec centers built. We need to make sure we have rec opportunities for our youth and build and expand activities. The governor's crime policy has done nothing for the 12-year-old girl who was shot to death or the 52-year-old father of five last month. That is a problem of this governor. He signed the youth charge reform act every state's attorney opposed.

Moore: There is nothing that I take more seriously than public safety and making sure people can feel safe in their neighborhoods. We made the largest investments in local law enforcement in our state's history and we are having the fastest drops in violent crime in America. We can create pathways to imagine themselves in spaces bigger than where they are now it has to be about accountability and opportunities for our young people.
