The blame for the crime increase sits at the feet of Sheriiff Lombardo. Lombardo's crowning glory of disbanding the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police gang and narcotics units, was his idea. Decentralize all of the LVMPD detectives and getting rid of specialized investigative unit, was Lombardo's plan. Citizens of Las Vegas, congratulations! you are the recipients of being one, if not the only major city in the United States that doesn't have a metropolitan police department assigned gang and narcotics unit. Gang and narcotics units are one of the only "proactive"law enforcement units. Patrol is reactive. Most of the new wave of violence in Las Vegas is gang and drug related. Putting more officers in black and whites will not stem the gang, narcotics and violence issues. Black and whites show up only after your a victim.
Love it baby..
Well Done
