Peter Moskos on NYC's Historic Crime Drop and the Lessons for Today
Homicides are down 14% from pre-pandemic levels and other major crimes have followed suit. But what can today's drop teach us about the last great decline, the one that transformed New York in the 1990s? Mike talks with Peter Moskos, former Baltimore cop turned John Jay College professor, about his new book Back from the Brink, an oral history of the NYPD's crime-fighting turnaround. They dig into the role of CompStat, broken windows, and the delicate balance between aggressive policing and community trust.
