The city saw a rise in shootings in recent years. But the latest numbers indicate a possible turnaround.

Over the last few weeks, horrific crimes have dominated headlines across the country.There was a father of four who was killed after at least three suspects broke into his home in Vaughan, Ontario. There was a mass stabbing attack on Hollow Water First Nation, just north of Winnipeg. The suspect had been out on bail. Last weekend in Edmonton, a woman was found shot to death in her car. The suspect in that case has a long history of run-ins with the law, including convictions for violent crimes, and was on probation at the time.Politicians from every level of government have been talking about this, saying that we are at crisis levels.So today, we're trying to figure out what's real here: is crime going up? For that, Irvin Waller, a Professor Emeritus at the University of Ottawa and the author of Science and Secrets of Ending Violent Crime joins the show. Then, Scott Reid, the co-founder of Feschuk.Reid communications and a political commentator, talks through the politics.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser taking heat from other Democrats for wanting to continue cooperating with the feds to fight crime, the August job numbers coming in lower than expected, and Joe Biden being more clueless about his own pardons that we previously knew.First, after reacting to Trump urging two candidates to drop out of the New York City mayor's race, they welcome Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser wanting to keep working with federal officials as much as possible to fight crime - even when the current emergency is over. Of course, other Democrats in the city are horrified that Bowser would want to keep the relationship going. So, who do lefties want to stop the most - President Trump or violent criminals?Next, Jim and Greg grimace as the August job numbers come in at 22,000, well below expectations. Will this finally trigger an interest rate cut? How much are the tariffs impacting these numbers? And are the shifts partly due to illegal immigrants losing or leaving jobs while American citizens step in to fill them? Finally, Jim and Greg shake their heads at reports that Biden staffers didn't know whether to move forward on pardons and commutations in his final year because the president never reviewed the files. Most of the orders were signed with an autopen, revealing Biden was even more disengaged on the issue than previously thought.Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (09/02/2025): 3:05pm- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump held a press conference from the Oval Office—announcing that Space Command headquarters will move from Colorado to Alabama. While taking questions from reporters, Trump addressed ridiculous rumors circulating on BlueSky claiming that he had died over the weekend. The president also vowed to deploy National Guard and ICE to Chicago as part of an effort to crackdown on crime and illegal immigration. 3:40pm- While addressing a crowd of supporters, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz joked about far-left, baseless conspiracy theories that President Trump had died over the weekend: "You get up in the morning, you doom-scroll through things and—although, I will say that the last few days you woke up thinking there might be news. Just saying!” 3:50pm- New Jersey gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciattarelli's campaign released its latest advertisement—focusing on Phil Murphy and Mikie Sherrill's failed energy policies and their history of supporting rises in property taxes. 4:05pm- Ciattarelli vs Sherrill: If Mikie Sherrill wins the New Jersey gubernatorial race, it's almost certain she'll immediately turn her attention to a 2028 run for president—prioritizing her own political future over New Jersey residents. Plus, Rich notes that artificial intelligence requires enormous amounts of energy—something Democrats seem unwilling to acknowledge. If Jack Ciattarelli doesn't win, are your energy prices going to continue to go up? 4:15pm- While speaking with CBS News's Face the Nation, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker said he doesn't want to gerrymander his state any further—but suggested he's willing to wipe out all Republican districts if needed. 4:30pm- David Gelman—Criminal Defense Attorney, Former Prosecutor, & a Surrogate for Donald Trump's Legal Team—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss a federal judge releasing a woman who was accused of threatening to kill President Donald Trump. 4:50pm- Did Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner encourage citizens to dox immigration agents making arrests in the city? 5:05pm- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump held a press conference from the Oval Office—announcing that Space Command headquarters will move from Colorado to Alabama.

According to The Washington Post, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has issued an executive order welcoming federal law enforcement's presence with no expiration date. Bowser, a Democrat, emphasized her “shared priorities” with President Trump to crackdown on violent crime. Rich emphasizes this is more proof Trump's plan is working. 5:20pm- Co-Director of Harvard CAPS/Harris polling Mark Penn notes that there is a “favorable” response from Americans—regardless of political party—for Trump's crackdown on violent crime. 5:30pm- While endorsing Zohran Mamdani for Mayor, New York Attorney General Letitia James explained that Mamdani is qualified because he once served as Vice President of his high school class. 5:40pm- Matt is still watching “Leave It To Beaver” reruns—he's now on Season 3, in case anyone was wondering (you probably weren't).

1. Trip Recap & Foreign Relations El Salvador:Cruz praises President Nayib Bukele for drastically reducing homicide rates by aggressively targeting gangs like MS-13 and 18th Street. He contrasts El Salvador’s success with U.S. crime and immigration challenges. Panama:He toured the Panama Canal and highlighted U.S. concerns about China’s growing influence there, including ports, bridges, and tunnels near the canal. Cruz warns that China could disrupt canal traffic in a future conflict, threatening U.S. national and economic security. Mexico:Cruz met with senior Mexican officials (Foreign Secretary, Defense Secretary, Agriculture Secretary). He urged cooperation on border security and dismantling drug cartels, stressing Trump’s policies and a reported 99% drop in illegal border crossings. Mexican leaders, including President Claudia Sheinbaum, rejected U.S. military involvement, citing “sovereignty.” Cruz compared Mexico’s stance to El Salvador’s crackdown and Colombia’s Plan Colombia (early 2000s), arguing that success requires political will. He warned that if Mexico refuses, the U.S. may still act militarily against cartels under Trump’s leadership. 2. Domestic Politics & Crime Cruz and Ferguson shift focus to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, criticizing him for downplaying crime in Chicago. Cruz cites statistics on Chicago’s murder rate (highest in the U.S. for 13 consecutive years) and argues Democrats prioritize criminals over victims. He frames Democrat policies in Illinois, California, and nationally as failures comparable to Mexico’s refusal to confront cartels. 3. Broader Political Commentary Cruz claims Democrats have become the “party of criminals,” siding with offenders over law-abiding citizens. He notes polling showing Americans are highly concerned about crime in cities. Discussion touches on 2025 midterm elections: Republicans may benefit from Democrat extremism. But Cruz worries about a GOP “enthusiasm gap,” citing a special election loss in Iowa. He stresses the need for Republican voter turnout despite Trump’s early policy “successes.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The Police Commissioner's putting a focus on the basics down as a key contributor to a fall in violent crime. The New Zealand Crime and Victims Survey reveals most violent crimes have been dropping in the past two years, while sexual assault cases increased. There's been a 113 percent increase in Police beat patrols over the last year. Richard Chambers says he's been clear he wants his staff to do the basics well. He says it means getting officers out into the community, but beat patrols are only one aspect and his team is doing an incredible job.

Send us a textReligious teachings wield profound influence over family dynamics and human behaviors, sometimes enabling abuse under the guise of spiritual teachings and guidance. This raw and revealing conversation confronts the troubling legacy of religious parenting methodologies that promote violence, rights removal, and coercive control rather than nurturing safe, consensual connection.Ruth shares her personal experience growing up under the influence of James Dobson's parenting teachings, exposing how these "Christian" parenting strategies actually originated from eugenicist theories of the 1930s. David and Ruth dissect how these methodologies create detailed systems for child abuse by advocating for escalating physical punishment, demeaning, demanding affection after violence, and treating children as inherently manipulative or "demonic." Most disturbing is how these approaches specifically target vulnerable children, with neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ youth suffering disproportionately under these regimes of violence and control.The conversation explores how religious justifications for violence extend beyond parenting into marital relationships, where men are positioned as divinely appointed authorities with the right to abuse and control women. This creates intergenerational patterns where violence becomes the primary coping tool for men and women for managing anxiety, fear, and situations where one feels out of control. David and Ruth challenge these distortions of faith, emphasizing that "coerced faith is not faith" and that true spirituality requires free will and personal dignity.For professionals working with families, this episode highlights the importance of going beyond trauma-informed approaches to understand how religious values shape family dynamics and entitlement for coercion and abuse. For those currently practicing these methods because they believe them spiritually necessary, there's an invitation to question whether these approaches truly reflect deeper values and support healthy, long-term connections to partner, parent, and pastor or simply perpetuate trauma and harm.Join this eye-opening discussion on how we can recognize, resist, and heal from religiously justified abuse while creating healthier spiritual environments for ourselves and future generations.

Black mayors across the country are determined to stop President Donald Trump from burying accomplishments made by their cities. AP correspondent Donna Warder reports.

Washington DC's highly touted 25–28% drop in violent crime is highly dubious, seeing as how murder stats are up while officials claim overall violence is down.  Citing an NBC4 Washington report and a headline about a suspended DC police commander, Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss police-union allegations that police supervisors reclassified shootings, stabbings, and carjackings as lesser offenses (e.g., “felony assault” or “injured person”) to keep “violent” crime numbers low.  The two add that even if citywide stats showed declines, residents still feel unsafe—pointing to carjackings—and criticize political responses including Trump's federal intervention in DC policing. They argue resources should go to housing, mental health, and addiction treatment rather than mass incarceration, while questioning the integrity of DC crime reporting. Plus segments on MSNBC hosts praising Trump's DC police takeover, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's secret plan for “Greater Israel,” the national debt exceeding $37 trillion for the first time and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen telling a protester he would be arrested in Russia — as he's being arrested.

An "unprecedented" spate of violent crimes coupled with a significant police shortage in Northland means dozens of officers are being sent to the region on rotations to help out. The special staff operation has been running for three months, with about 30 police from other districts being re-deployed to Northland for five weeks at a time to plug the gaps, with no end date in sight. District Commander for Northland, Superintendent Matt Srjoj spoke to Lisa Owen.

Extra police officers are being called to Northland to contend with a squeeze on resources from rising violent crime. In the past three months, 90 officers from across the country have been brought in to work five-week shifts. Northland District Commander Superintendent Matt Shroj says the region saw four homicides in quick succession, which was the tipping point. He told Mike Hosking that the district's been in a much better place with this extra support - but these are busy people, and they have their own areas to get back to.

City officials have announced new measures to reduce violence. Is it enough?

On today's Sharper Point commentary, Jim Sharpe talks about some interesting statistics regarding national crime. From 2023 to 2024 the violent crime rate fell 4%. He talks about what factors may be contributing to this drop in the crime rate. 

4.5% decrease in overall violent crime last year compared to the year before. Political analyst Jim Ryan shares with WBEN.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports on a drop in crime.

America's political debate over gun violence is a perennial food fight about the ethics of restricting access to firearms. While this makes for entertaining news clips on X, it doesn't get to the heart of the problem—namely that gun violence isn't monolithic. Some populations are more likely to commit homicide while others are more inclined to suicide. Stemming the country's violent streak requires a more nuanced approach. What could that look like?

David Wells was the Victoria Police Surgeon during one of Australia’s most disturbing unsolved crime sprees - the abductions and assaults of three young girls, and the suspected murder of a fourth, by the predator known only as Mr Cruel. In this powerful and rare interview, Associate Professor Wells shares what it was like to examine the victims, the moment he returned a girl her parents believed was dead, and the vital evidence he uncovered that could still help unmask the man behind the mask.

New York City's subway system has a lower rate of major violent crime compared to public transit in other large U.S. cities, according to a new report. Meanwhile, New Jersey Congressman Jeff Van Drew says he worked to preserve a special Medicaid program threatened by a new federal tax and spending bill. But as WNYC's Mike Hayes reports, New Jersey hospitals are still expected to lose hundreds of millions in funding.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin, known affectionately as “Cream City,” “Brew City,” and “The City of Festivals”, holds a cherished place in American culture. Many still associate Milwaukee with the hit sitcom "Laverne & Shirley", set in a 1950s brewery where two spirited friends tackled life's ups and downs.

That doesn't make the postcards.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Indeed, Milwaukee's crime statistics tell a sobering story. Once ranked among the ten most dangerous large cities in the U.S. in 2001 and 2007, Milwaukee continues to grapple with high rates of homicide, robbery, and aggravated assault. In 2015 alone, 146 people were murdered, a chilling figure that few outside the city are aware of. Police In Milwaukee The Violent Crime No One Talks About.
