Chief Steve Conrad shakes up Louisville police leadership, dismisses council's criticism

Those numbers stand in stark contrast to the lofty goals and optimism of the "Louisville's Blueprint for Safe and Healthy Neighborhoods" plan signed by Greg Fischer in October 2013. That plan, as with the current rhetoric, ignored that proactive policing is what cuts crime much more than social work activities the Mayor's people and the Chief like to talk about.

Don't believe me? Then look at how New York City cut homicides when they began doing zero tolerance policing and watch how crime's gone up there in the last few months since they stopped.
