Memphis Is The Most Dangerous City In America. Blame Amy Weirich.
Experts told Memphis Watch that the problem boils down to Weirich’s inability to lead. In cities across the country where violent crime has decreased, prosecutors prioritize their limited resources on the most serious offenses – crimes like rapes, armed robberies, shootings, and murders. And those prosecutors deprioritize low level offenses like marijuana possession or stealing diapers from a Walmart. In fact, a recent study from economists at the Public Safety Lab found that an approach like Weirich’s, which wastes scarce resources on low-level offenses, can actually increase crime.
