None of the Louisville area task forces are productive compared to other cities. They just follow the lead of the local politicians which IS NOT how its done elsewhere. Southern Indiana TFs are far more proactive and make many more arrests even though Louisville has much more crime. LMINTEL was a PR gimmick not a real TF.

9th Mobile isn't a detective unit. They do nothing more than what LPD patrolmen did in the 1st, 2nd and 4th Districts years ago. The federal agents have always wanted someone to do their grunt work due to being short staffed here. They take 1 to 2 years to finish an investigation. The relative handful of their people working in Louisville at that pace will never make a dent in crime. The Chief has made false assumptions about that.
