Crime is continuing its historic downward trend in the United States, according to new figures released today by the FBI. Says Ohio State University law professor Douglas Berman in a blog post:
We could (and perhaps should) have a huge debate over whether and how much credit the Obama/Holder administration merits for the continued decline in crime rates over the past few years. But this amazingly great news on national crime rates confirms my view that calls from many on the right for AG Holder to resign are just a story about electoral politics and have nothing to do with effective criminal justice policies.
