Where's Camden? Thought Detroit and Camden used to be interchangeable for that 1st spot.
 
Chicago doing all right.

Also, I wonder which is more dangerous St. Petersburg Florida or St. Petersburg Russia?
 
I feel some of the numbers are disproportional.

I expected Newport News or Norfolk, VA to be in the top 30.

Isn't that Sheriff David Clark from Milwaukee? You'd think his city wouldn't be number 5 by the way he talks on TV.

The democrats running the county government hate Sheriff Clarke and do everything they can to shit on his budgets and re-route duties to the Milwaukee PD whenever they can.

The various cities and villages that make up Milwaukee County already have police departments - so that kind of forces the Sheriff's Deputies to specialize.

If I recall correctly, roughly 75% of the (1,200?) deputies of the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office are mostly tasked with running the jails, providing security at the courthouse & airport grounds as well as patrolling of the freeways for speeders and drunks.

So he's been ineffective.
 
Nice. Oakland has the dubious distinction of having some of the highest crime rates and highest cost of living in the country. Talk about overachieving.

In fairness, that depends on examining what his office has been tasked with and what tools he was provided with to accomplish said tasks.

But I think my favorite Sheriff Clarke story is about the one time he took on a deputy that trolled him on some law enforcement board:

Clarke made some passive/aggressive response to the usual bitching from down in the trenches by posting:
If you are afraid or have lost your courage, you may go home, otherwise you will ruin the morale of others.

-Deuteronomy, Chapter 20, Verse 8

To which one deputy responded:
If you are afraid or you have lost your courage and need two deputies and a sergeant to escort you every time you fly in and out of the airport - and patrol deputies to drive by your house when you're out of town you should resign and go home!   Then you would lift the morale of this whole department.

So, when that deputy showed up on Monday for work - he learned he was spearheading a new "pilot project".

The "project" assigned the deputy to a solo foot patrol in 'little Beirut'. He was supposed to go door-to-door and survey residents about police effectiveness in the most densely murderous, drug-addled, shit-ZIP code in all of Wisconsin. By himself. In full uniform (Clarke specifically ordered him to wear his hat at all times). With no squad car (he was ordered to take a public bus to and from the area).

In the end, the deputy's Union hand fed the story to the local news media -they flipped out of course- and Clarke himself had to tag along with this guy for a few days of patrol to show what a reasonable guy he is.
