The east end used to be relatively quiet and safe. Not anymore. This is a direct result of the department taking its eye off the ball for far too long. Too many useless community cops, too much laying down, not enough street patrol and detectives making arrests in the divisions. Too much east end division downsizing to fill vacant west end spots.
