The Police Do Not Prevent Crime

The olin green state university documented at least 405 rapes by police officers on duty between two thousand five and two thousand 13. They also documented 600 nd 36 instances of forcible fondling. These numbers are only a fraction of the real total, since most sexual assaults are never reported. Most rapists have at least five victims over the course of their career. The raw number of police in this country has declined for the last five years straight. And the rate of police office officers per one thousand residents in the united states has been dropping for 20 years. Despite the fact that crime has dropped steadily for 20 years, most Americans believe that crime rates have increased throughout their lifetimes.
