Senator Has Harsh Words for AG Garland on Crime
Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) criticized the Justice Department’s handle on crime as violence escalates in major cities across the country.
According to Fox News:
“I think the Justice Department is losing,” Kennedy told Garland, who was testifying before the Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday in regard to the DOJ’s budget request for Fiscal Year 2023. “I think you’re losing on crime. I think you’re losing on drugs. I think you’re losing on immigration. I think you’re losing on Chinese espionage.”
Kennedy grilled the AG on rising crimes in the U.S., specifically in Chicago and why the Department of Justice hasn’t supported stop and frisk measures to curb the crimes.
Advertisement“Let’s take Chicago where … we haven’t made any inroads in stopping the killing. Chicago is now the world’s largest outdoor shooting range. We know that a lot of the shootings come from gangs. Why wouldn’t you want to call the police chief and the mayor in Chicago and say, ‘Look, you know who these gang members are. When you have a reasonable suspicion under Terry v. Ohio … why don’t you aggressively stop, question and frisk these gang members?” Kennedy asked, arguing guns, drugs and gang members would be pulled from the streets.
“The best way for the federal government to stop violent crime is to work at each local level and … let the state and locals determine what the best use of their own resources is,” Garland responded.
