Pirro Blasts D.C. Council for Hindering Law Enforcement

Former U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro criticizes Washington D.C. City Council for hindering federal efforts to improve law and order, citing lenient sentencing laws that allow violent offenders to avoid proper punishment. She highlights specific D.C. laws, such as the Incarceration Reduction Act and the Youth Rehabilitation Amendment Act, as examples of policies that she says allow armed offenders to avoid proper punishment. Pirro praises the federal governments intervention, stating that Washington D.C.s homicide rate has dropped significantly since the administration stepped in this past summer. She urges lawmakers to change these laws, lower the age for certain offenses, and prevent judges from releasing criminals who she believes should be incarcerated. The Daily News Now! - Every city.
