THE ALABAMA DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY AFFAIRS WILL SERVE AS THE FISCAL AGENT FOR THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALABAMA VIOLENT CRIME IS ON THE RISE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALABAMA. HOWEVER, THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY HAS THE LARGEST POPULATION IN THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALABAMA AND REPRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE CASELOAD HANDLED BY THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. SHOOTINGS IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY HAVE BECOME NEARLY A DAILY OCCURRENCE. ALTHOUGH A GREAT DEAL OF FOCUS IS DEDICATED ON THE MONTGOMERY AREA, THE REALITY IS THAT VIOLENT CRIME IS ITINERATE AND OCCURS ACROSS MULTIPLE JURISDICTIONS. THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY HAS NUMEROUS MAJOR ROADWAYS CONNECTING IT TO OTHER COUNTIES AND MUNICIPALITIES. UNFORTUNATELY, VIOLENT CRIME RATES IN ADJACENT COUNTIES - SUCH AS MACON, LOWNDES, BULLOCK, AND RUSSELL - ARE WELL OVER THE NATIONAL AVERAGE AND NEED ATTENTION. GANGS, DRUG/GUN TRAFFICKING, AND ILLEGAL FIREARM POSSESSIONS REMAIN THE MAJOR DRIVING FORCES BEHIND VIOLENT CRIME. OUR OFFICE HAS CONDUCTED NUMEROUS REGIONAL MEETINGS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT PARTNERS AND LEARNED THAT JURISDICTIONS THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT ARE IMPACTED BY CRIME BASED OUT OF SURROUNDINGMETROPOLITAN AREAS, INCLUDING THOSE IN ADJOINING STATES. FOR EXAMPLE, OUR OFFICE HAS A SEEN ACONTINUED INCREASE IN CRIMES AND CASES FROM MACON AND LEE COUNTIES, BOTH OF WHICH HAVE A MAJORINTERSTATE HIGHWAY RUNNING THROUGH THEM THAT CONNECTS MONTGOMERY AND ATLANTA. IN ADDITION, OTHERMETROPOLITAN AREAS LOCATED IN RUSSELL AND HOUSTON COUNTIES HAVE SEEN AN INFLUX OF VIOLENT CRIMEFROM GEORGIA AND FLORIDA. THEREFORE, CONNECTING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY OCCURRING IN DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS IS ESSENTIAL IN COMBATTING VIOLENT CRIME.
FY2024 FUNDS WILL SUPPORT PSN PARTNERS CONTINUED EFFORTS TO REDUCE THE OCCURRENCE OF VIOLENT GANG-RELATED INCIDENTS THROUGH BOTH REACTIVE AND PROACTIVE EFFORTS IN COLLABORATION WITH FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND INFORMED BY DATA AND REAL TIME INTELLIGENCE. THE MDAL WILL CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON THE COORDINATION OF EXISTING GUN VIOLENCE REDUCTION SERVICES AND PROSECUTION AS ITS STRATEGIC PRIORITY. ADDITIONALLY, THE MDAL WILL WORK WITH OUR PARTNERS AND ENCOURAGE THE EFFECTIVE USE OF CRIME GUN INTELLIGENCE FROM SYSTEMS SUCH AS THE NATIONAL INTEGRATED BALLISTIC INFORMATION NETWORK (NIBIN) TO RAPIDLY IDENTIFY AND INVESTIGATE SERIAL OFFENDERS PLAGUING OUR COMMUNITIES.

THE EDCA FACES UNIQUE CHALLENGES WITH RESPECT TO TRANSNATIONAL DRUG TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATIONS (DTOS), GANGS AND VIOLENT CRIME, GIVEN THE DISTRICT'S PROXIMITY TO THE MEXICO BORDER AND THE FACT THAT THE DISTRICT HAS THREE (3) MAJOR TRANSSHIPMENT CORRIDORS (CALIFORNIA STATE ROUTE 99, INTERSTATE 5 AND 80).
IN 2023, THE UNITED STATES CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION ON THE SAN DIEGO/MEXICO CORRIDOR SEIZED 77,228 LBS. METHAMPHETAMINE, 14,623 LBS. COCAINE, AND 12,710 LBS. FENTANYL. THE CENTRAL VALLEY CALIFORNIA (CVC) HIGH INTENSITY DRUG TRAFFICKING AREA (HIDTA) 2024 THREAT ASSESSMENT IDENTIFIED FENTANYL AS THE PRIMARY DRUG THREAT. FENTANYL-LACED COUNTERFEIT PRESCRIPTION PILLS REMAIN THE DOMINANT FORM OF THE DRUG AND EVEN THOUGH THE SINALOA CARTEL AND CJNG RESTRICTED FENTANYL PRODUCTION IN 2023. METHAMPHETAMINE IS THE CVC HIDTA'S SECOND MOST DANGEROUS DRUG THREAT. THE AVAILABILITY OF METHAMPHETAMINE, PARTICULARLY CRYSTAL METHAMPHETAMINE HAS INCREASED OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASE IN LARGE-CAPACITY METHAMPHETAMINE CONVERSION LABS IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY. COCAINE IS THE THIRD DRUG THREAT, OVERTAKING MARIJUANA AND HEROIN. THE INCREASE IN AVAILABILITY IS LIKELY A RESULT IN THE INCREASE IN COCA CULTIVATION IN SOUTH AMERICAN AND CENTRAL AMERICA. CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH REPORTED FOR 2022 THERE WERE 7,385 DEATHS RELATED TO ANY OPIOID OVERDOSE, 6,473 DEATHS RELATED TO FENTANYL OVERDOSE, 21,316 EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS RELATED TO OPIOID OVERDOSE, AND 13,640,794 PRESCRIPTIONS FOR OPIOIDS.

EDCA WILL USE A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH TO COMBAT VIOLENT CRIMES, TRANSNATIONAL DTOS, AND FIREARMS TO FOSTER SAFER NEIGHBORHOODS. THE PSN TEAM WILL FOCUS ITS EFFORTS ON ISSUES SPECIFIC TO THE DISTRICT, INCLUDING TRANSNATIONAL DTOS, GANG VIOLENCE, GHOST GUNS, AUTO-SWITCHES AND ILLEGAL SILENCERS FOUND IN THE DISTRICT, REPEAT AND HABITUAL VIOLENT OFFENDERS; AND GEOGRAPHIC HOT SPOTS THAT HAVE SEEN RECENT INCREASES IN VIOLENT CRIME RATES.EDCA PLANS TO CONTINUE TO BUILD ON THE ESTABLISHED AND SUCCESSFUL ENFORCEMENT AND PROSECUTION PRACTICES TO COMBAT VIOLENT CRIME. THE REDUCTION OF GANG VIOLENCE, TRANSNATIONAL DTOS, AND FIREARMS, PARTICULARLY GHOST GUNS AND AUTO-SWITCHES AND SILENCERS, WILL CONTINUE TO BE A FOCUS OF THE PROGRAM.THE PSN TEAM BELIEVES PROMOTING INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO THESE SPECIFIC ISSUES, AS WELL AS VIOLENT AND FIREARMS CRIMES GENERALLY, INCLUDE IDENTIFYING ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT AND SOFTWARE TO FURTHER SUPPORT LAW ENFORCEMENT TO REDUCE VIOLENT CRIME AND CREATE SAFER COMMUNITIES.

THE PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) PROGRAM FOR THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE (USAO) FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO IS A COORDINATED EFFORT AMONG ITS FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT PARTNERS TO ADDRESS VIOLENT CRIME IN DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE STATE. BASED ON CURRENT DATA CONCERNING VIOLENT CRIME IN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS (TEAS), THE USAO HAS DETERMINED THAT FOCUSED AND STRATEGIC ENFORCEMENT IS THE MOST DIRECT WAY THE PSN PROGRAM CAN CONTRIBUTE TO COMMUNITY SAFETY.
THE USAO WILL ADDRESS THE INCREASE IN VIOLENCE THROUGH PRIORITIZING INVESTIGATION, PROSECUTION, AND INCREASED COLLABORATION TAILORED TO EACH TEA. KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PLAN INCLUDE: 1) ENHANCING THE CAPABILITY OF TASK FORCES WITHIN TEAS TO IDENTIFY AND PROSECUTE INDIVIDUALS PERPETRATING THE MOST VIOLENT ACTS; 2) ENHANCING PREVENTION RESOURCES AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS, ESPECIALLY IN TEAS.
THIRTY PERCENT OF AWARD FUNDS WILL BE ALLOCATED TO VIOLENT CRIME GANG TASK FORCES, TO ADDRESS THE MOST SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN VIOLENCE, LARGELY ATTRIBUTABLE TO STREET GANGS OR YOUTHFUL HYBRID GANGS IN THE DENVER METRO AREA. FUNDS WILL ALSO BE USED TO SUPPORT SUBAWARDS TO COMMUNITY-BASED AGENCIES TO ASSIST WITH THE PREVENTION AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES WITHIN THE TEAS AND A RESEARCH PARTNER.

PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS CONNECTICUT (PSN-CT) CONTINUES THE APPROACH TO GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION THAT HAS BEEN TAKEN IN CT SINCE 2018.WHILE GUN VIOLENCE IN OUR LARGE CITIES CONTINUES TO INCREASE, PSN-CT HAS PROVIDED CITIES WITH RESOURCES FOR BOTH EQUIPMENT AND PREVENTION SERVICES, GUIDED BY PSN TASKFORCE PRIORITIES AND LOCAL NEEDS. THE JUSTICE EDUCATION CENTER, INC., WILL CONTINUE TO ACT AS THE FIDUCIARY AGENT, AND WILL COORDINATE THE SUB-GRANT SOLICITATION PROCESS FOR A NEW ROUND OF RESOURCES AIMED AT PROVIDING LOCAL DEPARTMENTS WITH THE EQUIPMENT, TRAINING AND RESOURCES THEY NEED TO DO TARGETED ENFORCEMENT, USE TECHNOLOGY EFFECTIVELY TO IDENTIFY AND APPREHEND SUSPECTS, AND TO WORK WITH THE COMMUNITY GANG TASK FORCE(S) TO CREATE A CREDIBLE ENFORCEMENT THREAT TO GROUP AND GANG MEMBERS.VIOLENCE IN CONNECTICUT'S MAJOR CITIES, INCLUDING HARTFORD, NEW HAVEN, BRIDGEPORT, WATERBURY AND NEW LONDON IS DRIVEN PRIMARILY BY LOCAL, NEIGHBORHOOD GROUPS WHO ENGAGE IN GANG ACTIVITY, DRUG TRAFFICKING, ROBBERIES OF RIVALS AND RELATED GUN VIOLENCE TO FACILITATE THAT ACTIVITY.THESE GROUPS OFTEN LACK THE FORMAL STRUCTURE OF TRADITIONAL, NATIONAL GANGS AND ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE BASED ON ASSOCIATIONS FORGED OVER RESIDING IN PARTICULAR SECTIONS OF THESE CITIES AND EVEN PARTICULAR MAJOR STREETS IN THESE SECTIONS.MUCH OF THE VIOLENCE IS OFTEN DRIVEN BY DISPUTES WITH RIVAL GROUPS IN OTHER SECTIONS OF THESE CITIES OVER ENCROACHMENT OF TERRITORY FOR DRUG TRAFFICKING AND WHAT EACH GROUP CONSIDERS ITS TURF.
IN ADDRESSING THE VIOLENCE PERPETRATED BY THESE CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS IN CONNECTICUT'S CITIES, THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE, AND ITS FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL PARTNERS WILL CONTINUE TO EMPLOY A TWO-PRONGED STRATEGY FOCUSED ON ENFORCEMENT AND OUTREACH/PREVENTION. CT-PSN'S RESEARCH PARTNER, THE CHARTER OAK GROUP, LLC (COG), WILL FACILITATE A REVIEW OF RECENT VIOLENT CRIME DATA AND SUPPORT THE COLLECTION OF PERFORMANCE DATA ON SPECIFIC INTERVENTIONS, INCLUDING OUTCOMES ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF POLICE DEPARTMENT EQUIPMENT PURCHASED WITH PSN FUNDS, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, AND PROGRAMMING INTENDED TO REDUCE RECIDIVISM, ENCOURAGE DESISTANCE FROM GUN VIOLENCE, AND PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE PATH FOR THOSE AT-RISK OF GROUP/GANG INVOLVEMENT OR OTHERWISE AT RISK OF COMMITTING GUN VIOLENCE

VIOLENT CRIMES HAVE BEEN STEADILY INCREASING IN DOVER, DELAWARE DESPITE ONGOING EFFORTS TO COMBAT VIOLENCE AND 2024 IS SHOWING NO SIGNS OF RELIEF. THE PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) FUNDS WILL BE USED TO AUGMENT AND EXPAND EXISTING EFFORTS TARGETING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY IN THE CITY OF DOVERS HIGH CRIME AND VIOLENT AREAS BY INCREASING DIRECTED PATROLS USING FUNDS FOR OVERTIME. THE DOVER POLICE DEPARTMENT WILL BE SUPPORTED IN THEIR EFFORTS WHEN NEEDED BY THE DELAWARE STATE POLICE. OUR COMMUNITY OUTREACH EFFORT WITH BE DRIVEN BY NEIGHBORHOOD PARTNERS WHO WILL WORK WITHIN THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY THE REASONS FOR CERTAIN AREAS TO HAVE A HIGHER CRIME RATE THAN OTHERS, TO PROVIDE INTERVENTION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TO IDENTIFY POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE INFLUENCERS. AS A RESULT, THIS WILL FOSTER BETTER POLICE/COMMUNITY RELATIONS TO HELP REDUCE VIOLENT AND GANG RELATED CRIME IN OUR THREE TARGET AREAS THAT ARE WITHIN THE CITY OF DOVER; DOWNTOWN, SIMON CIRCLE AND MANCHESTER.
RESEARCH PARTNER DELAWARE STATE UNIVERSITY DSU) PROVIDES REAL TIME CRIME ANALYSIS SO WE CAN KNOW WHERE AND WHEN CRIME HOT SPOTS OCCUR AND HOW THEY CORRELATE WITH SOCIAL INDICATORS. HOWEVER, BUDGETARY RESTRICTIONS MADE IT DIFFICULT TO TARGET POLICE EFFORTS ON HOT SPOTS ON AN ONGOING BASIS. ALTHOUGH ANALYSES WILL ALLOW A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF DOVER HOT SPOTS, THE QUESTION OF WHY CRIME IS CLUSTERING IN A FEW SPECIFIC AREAS REMAINS ELUSIVE. BY INCREASING POLICE EFFORTS THROUGH PSN FUNDING AND TARGETING THOSE EFFORTS AT THE DRIVERS OF CRIME THROUGH RISK TERRAIN MODELING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE DSU RESEARCH TEAM, WE HOPE TO DEMONSTRATE A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN OVERALL VIOLENT CRIME AND SPECIFICALLY FIREARMS VIOLENCE. THE GOAL OF PSN IS TO REDUCE GUN CRIME AND GANG VIOLENCE OUTCOMES. PSN'S SUCCESS WILL BE MEASURED BY A 10% REDUCTION IN VIOLENT/GUN CRIME AND GANG VIOLENCE. WHILE FOCUSING AT LEAST 30% OF FUNDING/INTERACTION ON GANG RELATED ACTIVITIES AND VIOLENCE INTERVENTION.

THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE (USAO) FOR THE DISTRICT OF HAWAII WILL USE FISCAL YEAR 2024 PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) FUNDING TO REDUCE, PREVENT, AND INVESTIGATE VIOLENT CRIME THAT IS LINKED TO AGRICULTURAL CRIME. THE STATE OF HAWAIIS DEPARTMENT OF LAW ENFORCEMENT (DLE) WILL CREATE A LAW ENFORCEMENT INVESTIGATOR POSITION THAT SERVES THE ENTIRE STATE, FOCUSING EXCLUSIVELY ON INVESTIGATING AGRICULTURAL CRIME, AND COORDINATING WITH OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO INVESTIGATE AND ANALYZE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY (SUCH AS NARCOTICS MANUFACTURING OR HUMAN TRAFFICKING) TAKING PLACE ON AGRICULTURAL LANDS, FOR A PERIOD OF TWO YEARS. THE PURPOSE OF CREATING A SPECIALIZED POSITION FOCUSING ON AGRICULTURAL CRIMES WITHIN THE DLE IS TO PROVIDE RANCHERS AND FARMERS WITH A DEDICATED RESOURCE THAT CAN ADDRESS THEIR CONCERNS AND WORK WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO PREVENT VIOLENT CRIMES, INSTANCES OF VIGILANTISM, AND COMPILE DATA FROM CRIMINAL ACTIVITY REPORTING TO CREATE AN ACCURATE PICTURE OF HOW WIDESPREAD AGRICULTURAL CRIME IS THROUGHOUT THE STATE, AND HOW MANY OTHER CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES IT MAY TIE INTO.
IN A REPORT REVIEWING 2019, THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE (USDA) NOTED THAT AGRICULTURAL THEFT AND VANDALISM, AND THE EXPENSE OF SECURITY MEASURES TO PREVENT THESE CRIMES IN HAWAII COST FARMERS ROUGHLY $14,400,000 (USDA, 2020). IN 2020, THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE REPORTED 66 CASES OF FELONY AGRICULTURE THEFT, 30 TRESPASSING CASES, AND 48 OTHER RELATED OFFENSES CASES IN HAWAII COUNTY. THOUGH THERE IS NO DIRECT CORRELATION BETWEEN THE RISING INDEX PERCENTAGE AND AGRICULTURAL CRIME, THERE IS A HEIGHTENED OPPORTUNITY FOR VIOLENT CRIME TO OCCUR WHEN WEAPONS ARE PRESENT DURING DISPUTES ON FARMS AND RANCHES. FOR EXAMPLE, TRESPASSING CASES THAT STEM FROM ILLEGAL HUNTING ACTIVITIES REPRESENT AN INCREASED DANGER OF VIOLENCE WHEN FIREARMS USED FOR HUNTING ARE PRESENT.

IN THE PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA OF MARION COUNTY, INDIANA (THE HOME OF INDIANAPOLIS, THE LARGEST CITY IN INDIANA), HOMICIDES AND NONFATAL SHOOTINGS HAVE LARGELY CONTINUED TO TREND UPWARD SINCE 2015. ROBBERIES, CARJACKINGS, AND OTHER VIOLENT CRIMES HAVE ALSO ESCALATED. FOR EXAMPLE, HOMICIDES HAVE INCREASED OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS: 110 (2010), 158 (2015), 179 (2018), 172 (2019), 245 (2020), 271 (2021), 226 (2022).

INDIANA'S APPROACH TO VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION IS A MULTI-FACETED APPROACH.NO SINGLE LEVEL OF LAW ENFORCEMENT FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL HAS THE CAPACITY TO CONFRONT THIS EPIDEMIC ALONE. BEYOND RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS, FEDERAL AGENCIES FACE JURISDICTIONAL LIMITATIONS. THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND ITS INVESTIGATIVE PARTNERS ARE EMPOWERED TO PURSUE GANGS AND DRUG TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATIONS, AS WELL AS INDIVIDUALS WHO PERPETRATE COMMERCIAL ROBBERIES, COMMIT VIOLENT CRIMES WITH FIREARMS, AND POSSESS FIREARMS AS PROHIBITED PERSONS. BUT THE ABILITY TO PROSECUTE DEFENDANTS WHO USE FIREARMS TO COMMIT MURDER AND ASSAULT IS LIMITED. STATE AND LOCAL PROSECUTORS AND AGENCIES FACE SIMILAR RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS AS WELL AS CHALLENGES UNIQUE TO THEIR JURISDICTIONAL LEVEL SUCH AS JAIL OVERCROWDING. PROSECUTORS AND INVESTIGATORS ARE UNABLE TO TACKLE THIS CHALLENGE ALONE; ACTIVE ENGAGEMENT OF COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURING A COMPREHENSIVE RESPONSE TO THE VIOLENT CRIME PROBLEM.
THROUGH PSN MARION COUNTY FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL PARTNERS WILL WORK TOGETHER TO CAPITALIZE ON THEIR OVERLAPPING JURISDICTIONS, POOL RESOURCES AND KNOWLEDGE, AND BOOST THE CHANCES OF ACHIEVING THE SHARED GOAL OF REDUCING VIOLENT CRIME IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF INDIANA. FUNDING WILL CONTINUE TO BE USED TO STRENGTHEN THESE OVERLAPPING EFFORTS AND EXPEDITE THE DATA AVAILABLE TO PARTNERS WORKING TOWARD VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION.

THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA (USAO) ENCOMPASSES THIRTEEN PARISHES. IN RECENT YEARS THESE COMMUNITIES HAVE BEEN THREATENED BY WAVES OF VIOLENCE THAT LEAVE RESIDENTS FEARFUL AND LOOKING TOWARDS LAW ENFORCEMENT AND EACH OTHER FOR SUPPORT AND SAFETY. COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE 13 PARISHES ARE PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE TO CRIME BECAUSE OF CHANGES IN WHEN AND WHERE VIOLENT ACTS ARE OCCURRING. WHEREAS CRIMES SUCH AS CAR JACKINGS, THEFT, ROBBERY, AND SHOOTINGS WERESEEN AS OCCURRING AT NIGHT AND OFTEN IN HIGH CRIME-URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS, THESE CRIMES ARE NOW OCCURRING IN POPULATED AND FREQUENTLY VISITED AREAS DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS.
WITH FISCAL YEAR 2024PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) FUNDING, THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF LOUISIANA PLANS TO FOCUS ITS EFFORTS ON FOCUSED STRATEGIC ENFORCEMENT AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT. TO COMBAT THE EXPANSION OF CRIMES WITHIN THECOMMUNITY, THE USAO HAS PARTNERED WITH LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, SUCH AS, THE DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION, THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION, THE UNITED STATES MARSHAL'S SERVICE, THE ORLEANS PARISH DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE, THE BUREAU OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, FIREARMS AND EXPLOSIVES, NEW ORLEANS POLICE DEPARTMENT, LOUISIANA STATE PATROL, AND LOCAL SHERIFF OFFICES. THE GOAL IS TO WORK WITH LOCAL PARTNERS TO IDENTIFY PERPETRATORS OF SEMI-ORGANIZED GROUP VIOLENCE AND TO WORK WITH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO HELP RESTORE A SENSE OF SAFETY AND TRUST AMONG RESIDENTS. THE PSN PARTNERSHIP IS CONFIDENT THAT WITH MORE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN COMMUNITY PARTNERSAND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES THAT TRUST WILL BE FORTHCOMING AND WILL RESULT IN THE PRACTICES THATWILL LOWER VIOLENT CRIME RATESIN THE THIRTEEN PARISHES.

PUBLIC SAFETY, MAINE DEPARTMENT OF
MAINE'S RELATIVELY LOW VIOLENT CRIME PROBLEM PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR REAL IMPACT WITH THE INFUSION OF NEW RESOURCES. MAINE'S CRIME PROBLEM HAS HISTORICALLY CENTERED ON INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE, WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR APPROXIMATELY HALF OF THE HOMICIDES IN THE STATE EACH YEAR.THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE (USAO) HAS AGGRESSIVELY ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY WITH OUR EFFORTS TO KEEP FIREARMS OUT OF THE HANDS OF PROHIBITED PERSONS IN GENERAL AND OUT OF THE HANDS OF DOMESTIC ABUSERS IN PARTICULAR.MORE RECENTLY, THE DRIVER OF VIOLENT CRIME HAS INCLUDED SEX TRAFFICKING OF BOTH MINORS AND ADULTS AND VIOLENT CRIME ASSOCIATED WITH FIREARMS TRAFFICKING AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.SEX TRAFFICKING, ESSENTIALLY UNKNOWN OR UNDETECTED JUST A FEW YEARS AGO, CONTINUES TO INCREASE. MAINE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SOURCE STATE FOR FIREARMS, AND THE ABILITY OF PROHIBITED PERSON TO OBTAIN FIREARMS IS ALSO OF GRAVE CONCERN IN THIS CLIMATE. GUN TRAFFICKING, OFTEN ACCOMPANIED BY STRAW PURCHASES, AND POSSESSION OF FIREARMS BY VIOLENT OFFENDERS REQUIRES OUR VIGILANCE.
THE DISTRICT WILL USE MAINE'S 2024 PSN FUNDING TO CONTINUE SUPPORTING PARTNERS WHOSE WORK IS FOCUSED ON REDUCING VIOLENT CRIME ASSOCIATED WITH OPIOID TRAFFICKING, SEX TRAFFICKING, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, GUN TRAFFICKING AND FIREARM POSSESSION BY PROHIBITED PERSONS THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF MAINE.IN 2024, THE PSN TEAM WILL WORK WITH THE CATHERINE CUTLER INSTITUTE, ITS RESEARCH PARTNER, TO REVIEW THE MOST RECENTLY AVAILABLE STATE-WIDE CRIME STATISTICS AND TO SUPPORT OUR UPDATED STRATEGIC PLAN.

IN 2022, MARYLAND'S VIOLENT CRIME RATE WAS 398 INCIDENTS PER 100,000 RESIDENTS, SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. WHILE THERE WAS A MODEST DECLINE IN OVERALL NATIONAL VIOLENT CRIME, MARYLAND CONTINUES TO FACE SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES, PARTICULARLY RELATED TO GUN VIOLENCE AND GANG ACTIVITY. GANG VIOLENCE REMAINS A MAJOR CONTRIBUTOR, ESPECIALLY IN CITIES LIKE BALTIMORE, WHERE DISPUTES AND DRUG TRAFFICKING DRIVE MUCH OF THE VIOLENCE. THIS ONGOING ISSUE COMPLICATES EFFORTS TO ENHANCE PUBLIC SAFETY DESPITE SOME PROGRESS IN REDUCING VIOLENT CRIME.
PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) IS A KEY INITIATIVE TO COMBAT VIOLENT CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS AND GUN VIOLENCE IN MARYLAND. KEY PARTNERS IN THIS EFFORT INCLUDE THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE (USAO), GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF CRIME PREVENTION AND POLICY (GOCCP), MARYLAND PAROLE AND PROBATION, FEDERAL INVESTIGATIVE AGENCIES, AND LOCAL AND STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AS WELL AS PROSECUTORIAL TEAMS. THE PROGRAM EMPLOYS DATA-DRIVEN APPROACHES, USING CRIME REPORTING SYSTEMS LIKE THE FBI'S UNIFORM CRIME REPORTING (UCR) AND THE MARYLAND STATE POLICE'S CENTRAL HUB FOR UCR/NIBRS DATA, TO IDENTIFY CRIME TRENDS AND RESPOND EFFECTIVELY. IN 2022, MARYLAND REPORTED A 1.6% INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME, WITH AGGRAVATED ASSAULT, ROBBERY, AND HOMICIDE BEING THE MOST PREVALENT. THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND AND THE GOCPP HAVE IDENTIFIED TEN AREAS WITH VIOLENT CRIME RATES SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE STATE AVERAGE, INCLUDING BALTIMORE CITY, PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, AND BALTIMORE COUNTY.
PSN MARYLAND WILL FOCUS ON DISMANTLING CRIMINAL NETWORKS THAT FUEL VIOLENT CRIME. THESE NETWORKS, OFTEN GANG-RELATED, OPERATE ACROSS MARYLAND'S 23 COUNTIES AND BALTIMORE CITY, USING VIOLENCE AND INTIMIDATION TO FURTHER THEIR CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES. PSN PROVIDES LAW ENFORCEMENT WITH THE TOOLS TO DISMANTLE THESE ORGANIZATIONS AND ENHANCE PUBLIC SAFETY STATEWIDE.
GOCPP WILL SERVE AS THE FISCAL AGENT AND STATE ADMINISTERING AGENCY (SAA) FOR MARYLAND'S PSN ALLOCATION, ENSURING THE EFFECTIVE USE OF FUNDS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATIONS, GANG TASK FORCE SUPPORT, AND EQUIPMENT PROCUREMENT.

AT THE SAME TIME, GANG OR GROUP VIOLENCE, THE PROLIFERATION OF FIREARMS, AND ILLEGAL DRUG TRAFFICKING REMAIN KEY CHALLENGES FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT.
WITH PREVIOUS SUPPORT FROM PSN, LOCAL AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT HAVE IMPLEMENTED DATA-DRIVEN MODELS, CONCENTRATING ON THE INDIVIDUALS OR GROUPS DRIVING MUCH OF THE CRIME IN GEOGRAPHIC HOT SPOTS. IN FY 2024, THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN WILL USE THIS PSN FUNDING TO SUPPORT LOCAL PARTNER LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES EFFORTS TO PREVENT AND DETER VIOLENT CRIME, PARTICULARLY GROUP VIOLENCE, THROUGH COMMUNITY-DRIVEN PRACTICES, CONCENTRATING ON THE SEVEN COMMUNITIES MENTIONED ABOVE. GRANT ACTIVITIES WILL BE IMPLEMENTED THROUGH COLLABORATION WITH THE CURRENT WESTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN PSN TASK FORCE, COMPRISED OF LAW ENFORCEMENT LEADERS AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE PROSECUTORS' OFFICES OF THE SEVEN TARGET COMMUNITIES. THE DEPARTMENT OF MICHIGAN STATE POLICE IS THE FISCAL AGENT AND PUBLIC SECTOR CONSULTANTS WILL CONDUCT MONITORING AND EVALUATION.
THE PSN TASK FORCE WILL FUND PROJECTS THAT HELP FOSTER TRUST BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND COMMUNITY, PREVENT AND DETER VIOLENT CRIME, AND MEASURE THE RESULTS OF THE PSN-FUNDED PROJECTS. TO EFFECTIVELY DISBURSE PSN GRANT FUNDS IN THE SEVEN FOCUSED COMMUNITIES, THE PSN TASK FORCE WILL ADMINISTER A COMPETITIVE SUB-GRANT AWARD PROCESS. SUCCESSFUL SUB-GRANTEES WILL IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS THAT FOCUS ON EVIDENCE-BASED INTELLIGENCE; COMMUNITY-BASED VIOLENCE INTERVENTION AND PREVENTION PROGRAMS; EDUCATIONAL AND MENTORING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THOSE INVOLVED IN VIOLENCE OR AT RISK OF BECOMING INVOLVED IN VIOLENCE; TARGETED COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND GROUP VIOLENCE INTERRUPTION; AND CRIME PREVENTION SOCIAL PROGRAMS AND YOUTH OUTREACH.

PUBLIC SAFETY, MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF
VIOLENCE WITHIN THE URBAN CORE MINNEAPOLIS AND ST. PAUL AND SURROUNDING SUBURBS CONTINUES TO SUFFER FROM DEVASTING VIOLENCE: CAR JACKINGS, GANG WARFARE, AUTOMATIC HANDGUNS, AND ARMED ROBBERIES.
ALTHOUGH THE NUMBER OF GUNSHOTS RECORDED IN THE CITY FELL 29% IN 2023, RESULTING IN 129 FEWER VICTIMS WHEN COMPARED TO 2022, THERE WERE STILL OVER 6,486 GUNSHOTS DETECTED ON MINNEAPOLIS STREETS. HOMICIDES IN MINNEAPOLIS WERE UP 160% AND GUNSHOT VICTIMS WERE UP 57% IN 2023 COMPARED TO 2019. CARJACKINGS, WHICH PEAKED IN 2021, DECLINED 42% FROM 2022 TO 2023. STILL, THESE DECREASES ARE NOT ENOUGH. MUCH OF THE VIOLENCE PLAGUING THE TWIN CITIES CONTINUES TO BE DRIVEN BY GANGS WHO ARE FAR MORE LIKELY TO USE VIOLENCE TO ESTABLISH REPUTATION AND TERRITORY. THIS VIOLENT CRIME CRISIS IS OCCURRING AT THE SAME TIME LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENTS ARE FACING A RECORD SHORTAGE OF OFFICERS. THE MINNEAPOLIS AND ST. PAUL POLICE DEPARTMENTS HAVE A FRACTION OF THE SWORN OFFICERS THEY DID BEFORE MAY 2020. WITH OVERBURDENED LOCAL PROSECUTORS AND STATE COURTS, POLICE AND SHERIFFS CONTINUE TO RELY ON AN INCREASED FEDERAL PRESENCE, WHICH THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE IS COMMITTED TO.
THE 2024 PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS STRATEGY WILL DIRECTLY ADDRESS ALL THESE ISSUES WITH A PRIORITY FOCUS ON PREVENTION, INTERVENTION, ENFORCEMENT, AND REENTRY EFFORTS WITHIN THE URBAN CORE OF THE TWIN CITIES

MORE RECENTLY AND FOLLOWING AN ASSESSMENT OF NEEDS WITHIN THE DISTRICT AND THESE PARTICULAR CITIES, SDMS REDUCED THE NUMBER OF CITIES IN WHICH IT HOSTS REGULAR PSN MEETINGS TO FOUR: JACKSON, HATTIESBURG, GULFPORT, AND MERIDIAN. SDMS HAS DESIGNATED ALL COUNTIES IN WHICH THESE FOUR CITIES ARE NOT LOCATED AS PSN LITE SITES, AND ALTHOUGH REGULAR MEETINGS ARE NOT HOSTED WITHIN THOSE COUNTIES, AN AUSA IS ASSIGNED TO EACH COUNTY TO SERVE AS A POINT OF CONTACT FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT AND TO ASSIST WITH PSN INITIATIVES AND CASES WITHIN THAT COUNTY.
THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE (DOJ) RECENTLY DESIGNATED JACKSON AS ONE OF THREE CITIES TO BE A RECIPIENT OF ITS VIOLENT CRIME INITIATIVE (VCI). THROUGH THE VCI, THE DOJ IS DEDICATING TIME AND RESOURCES TO SPECIFICALLY TARGET GANGS AND OTHER VIOLENT GROUPS WHO COMMIT VIOLENT CRIME IN THE CITY OF JACKSON. THE VCI INDICATES THE DOJ, LIKE THE SDMS, RECOGNIZES THAT VIOLENCE, FIREARMS OFFENSES, DRUG TRAFFICKING, AND OTHER CRIMES (E.G., RICO OFFENSES) ARE BEING DRIVEN IN SIGNIFICANT PART BY THE ACTIVITIES OF GANGS AND OTHER CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS.

THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI CONSISTS OF 37 RURAL COUNTIES. AS A PART OF ITS PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) INITIATIVE, THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI CURRENTLY HAS JUST ONE DESIGNATED PSN SITE, BUT WORKS CLOSELY WITH STATE, LOCAL AND FEDERAL PARTNERS ACROSS OUR DISTRICT TO COMBAT VIOLENT CRIME. OUR CURRENT PSN FOCUS AREA IS IN THE CITY OF GREENVILLE, WHICH IS LOCATED IN THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA AND IS A HISTORIC PSN FOCAL POINT IN OUR DISTRICT SINCE 2002. DUE TO STEEP INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME AND REQUESTS FROM LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR ASSISTANCE, WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF EXPLORING A SECOND POTENTIAL PSN SITE IN CLARKSDALE, MISSISSIPPI WHICH WAS A PREVIOUS PSN SITE FROM 2002-2012.
BECAUSE THE VIOLENT CRIME PROBLEM IN OUR DISTRICT IS LARGELY INTERTWINED WITH DRUG TRAFFICKING AND GANG ACTIVITY, OUR UNITED STATES ATTORNEY LED TASK FORCES HAVE TRADITIONALLY ATTACKED GUN CRIME ACROSS OUR DISTRICT AND IN OUR TARGET AREAS IN CONJUNCTION WITH DRUG AND ORGANIZED CRIME DRUG ENFORCEMENT TASK FORCES (OCDETF) INVESTIGATIONS. BUREAU OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO,, FIREARMS, AND EXPLOSIVES AGENTS HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED ON A FULL-TIME BASIS TO EACH OF THE DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION MULTI-AGENCY TASK FORCES CONDUCTING THESE INVESTIGATIONS TO ENSURE THAT VIOLENT GUN CRIMES ARE FULLY INVESTIGATED AND THAT THOSE RESPONSIBLE ARE PROSECUTED. THE USAO IS WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE MISSISSIPPI BUREAU OF NARCOTICS AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT SUCH AS THE GREENVILLE POLICE DEPARTMENT SPECIAL OPERATIONS UNIT TO COMBAT DRUG AND GUN CRIME.
THIS DISTRICT WILL USE FUNDS TO FURTHER ASSIST OUR STATE, LOCAL AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS IN ONGOING PSN EFFORTS. FUNDS WILL SUPPORT PROACTIVE LAW ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS, COMMUNITY PREVENTION AND INTERVENTION, TRAINING AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION.

ROSAMONS GIFFORD CHARITABLE CORP, THE
THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK (SDNY) COMPRISES APPROXIMATELY 5.1 MILLION PEOPLE, IN A DIVERSE GEOGRAPHIC, ETHNIC, AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC LANDSCAPE. GANG ACTIVITY AND GUN VIOLENCE CONTINUES TO BE SERIOUS THREAT WITH MOST THE DISTRICT'S COMMUNITY VIOLENCE STEMMING FROM DRUG TRAFFICKING AND GANG ACTIVITY. GUN VIOLENCE REMAINS A PRESSING ISSUE IN BOTH THE BRONX AND MANHATTAN. ALTHOUGH IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE, THE OVERALL NUMBERS ARE STILL ALARMINGLY HIGH. IN MANHATTAN, THE TREND IN SHOOTING INCIDENTS AND VICTIMS HAS SHOWN A GRADUAL DECLINE OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. IN 2022, 211 SHOOTING INCIDENTS RESULTING IN 255 VICTIMS. THIS DECREASED IN 2023 WITH 162 INCIDENTS AND 186 VICTIMS. WHILE THESE NUMBERS SUGGEST PROGRESS, THEY ALSO INDICATE THAT GUN VIOLENCE REMAINS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN. THE BRONX, ON THE OTHER HAND, HAS SEEN A MORE PRONOUNCED DECLINE IN GUN VIOLENCE, ALTHOUGH THE NUMBERS REMAIN HIGH. IN 2022, THE BRONX REPORTED 408 SHOOTING INCIDENTS WITH 484 VICTIMS. THIS DECREASED IN 2023 TO 318 INCIDENTS AND 377 VICTIMS. WHILE THE DOWNWARD TREND IS ENCOURAGING, THE HIGH VOLUME OF INCIDENTS AND VICTIMS HIGHLIGHTS THE PERSISTENT CHALLENGES FACED BY THE BRONX. ADDRESSING BOTH THESE ISSUES REQUIRES A MULTIFACETED APPROACH, INCLUDING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, IMPROVED POLICING STRATEGIES, AND ADDRESSING SOCIO ECONOMIC FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO VIOLENCE.
SDNY PROPOSES TO CONTINUE TO DIRECT PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS FUNDS (PSN) FUNDS TOWARD THESE TWO BOROUGHS TO ASSIST THE CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT AND ITS GANG TASK FORCE PARTNERS IN THEIR EFFORTS TO ENHANCE ANALYTICAL CAPACITY. THIS ABILITY WILL SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE THE NEW YORK CITY POLICE DEPARTMENTS (NYPD) CURRENT TARGETED AND PRIORITIZED GUN VIOLENCE ENFORCEMENT AND INTERVENTION EFFORTS. IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY CHRONIC VIOLENT OFFENDERS THAT ARE AT HIGHEST RISK FOR BEING INVOLVED IN FUTURE SHOOTING INCIDENTS, THE NYPD CREATED THE GUN RECIDIVIST INVESTIGATION PROGRAM (GRIP). GIVEN THE FACT THAT OVER HALF OF THE GRIP SUBJECTS HAVE CONFIRMED GANG/CREW AFFILIATIONS, THE NYPD WILL FOCUS MUCH MORE THAN 30% OF THE PSN FUNDING TO SUPPORT HIGH-LEVEL ANALYTICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL EFFORTS WITHIN THE NYC CGIC TO INFORM AND DRIVE ITS GANG-RELATED GUN VIOLENCE AND GANG INTERDICTION EFFORTS WITHIN THE BRONX AND MANHATTAN.

THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE (DOJ) WILL SERVE AS THE FISCAL AGENT FOR THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE (USAO) FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN AND WILL USE PSN FUNDING TO BUILD ON EXISTING EFFORTS ADDRESSING VIOLENT CRIME IN THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN.
THE DISTRICT'S LARGEST CITY IS MADISON, WHICH HAS A POPULATION OF 272,903 AND IS IN DANE COUNTY WHICH HAS AN ESTIMATED POPULATION OF 575,347. IT IS WISCONSIN 'S SECOND LARGEST CITY AND ONE OF ITS FASTEST GROWING. THE PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOOD (PSN) TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA (TEA) FOR THE USAO OF THE WESTERN DISTRICT IS THE GREATER MADISON AREA. THE OFFICE HAS A VERY STRONG WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE MADISON POLICE DEPARTMENT (MPD), SURROUNDING LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCIES, AND DANE COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE TO ADDRESS VIOLENT CRIME.
THE USAO FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN ALSO WORKS CLOSELY WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT TO ADDRESS THEIR NEEDS. THIS INCLUDES COLLABORATING WITH AGENCIES ON THEIR COMMUNITY VIOLENCE INITIATIVE WHICH INCLUDES COORDINATION BETWEEN STREET LEVEL LAW ENFORCEMENT, MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, SOCIAL SERVICES, AND HEALTH ADVOCATES. ONE OF THE CITIES THAT THE USAO OF THE WESTERN DISTRICT CLOSELY COLLABORATES WITHIS THE CITY OF LA CROSSE. IN RECENT YEARS THEY HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING VIOLENT CRIME SIGNIFICANTLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO A CITY THEIR SIZE. JANESVILLE AND BELOIT WHICH ARE BETWEEN THE MADISON AND ILLINOIS BORDER, HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN HOT SPOTS FOR VIOLENT CRIME. BECAUSE OF THAT, THE POLICE DEPARTMENTS IN THOSE THREE CITIES HAVE APPLIED AND RECEIVED FUNDING UNDER THE 2019 THROUGH 2023 PSN GRANTS. WHILE THEY ARE NOT IN THE TEA, THOSE DEPARTMENTS HAVE VALUED THE USAO'S RELATIONSHIP, OUTREACH, AND CASE OUTCOMES. THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 PSN FUNDING WILL HELP TO BUILD ON THESE COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIPS IN THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN.

THE POPULATION OF THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS (WDTX) EXCEEDS 7.5 MILLION PEOPLE. THE WDTX IS COMPRISED OF 68 COUNTIES, 93,000 SQUARE MILES, 660 MILES ALONG THE U.S./MEXICAN BORDER, AND TWO TIME ZONES. NO OTHER DISTRICT COVERS NEARLY AS MUCH BORDER WITH MEXICO. DUE TO THE PROXIMITY OF THE MEXICAN BORDER, THE WDTX WORKS TO DISRUPT AND DISMANTLE TRANSNATIONAL CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT EMPLOY VIOLENCE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BORDER. TRANSNATIONAL GANGS EFFECT VIRTUALLY ALL CORNERS OF THE WDTX THROUGH NARCOTICS, FIREARMS, AND HUMAN SMUGGLING. WDTX ALSO AGGRESSIVELY PURSUES HUMAN SMUGGLING ORGANIZATIONS AND WORKS TO COMBAT ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. BECAUSE OF THE GEOGRAPHIC SIZE OF THE WDTX, THE CRIME AND THE CAUSES OF IT ARE DIVERSE. THE WDTXS PSN OBJECTIVE IS TO REDUCE THE VIOLENT CRIME IN THE ENTIRE DISTRICT, THROUGH INTERRUPTING GANG ACTIVITY AND ARRESTING THE SHOOTERS. THERE IS ALSO A NEED FOR DISTRICT-WIDE PREVENTION AND RE-ENTRY EFFORTS TO KEEP PEOPLE OUT OF THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM AND TO ADDRESS RECIDIVISM.
IN CONJUNCTION WITH PSN, THE WDTX DESIGNED A VIOLENT CRIME INITIATIVE THAT DRAWS ON PARTNERSHIPS TO TACKLE VIOLENT CRIME AND PROTECT THE COMMUNITIES OF CENTRAL AND WEST TEXAS THROUGH ENFORCEMENT, PREVENTION, AND RE-ENTRY PROGRAMS. PROPOSED PROJECTS SHOULD INCLUDE ENFORCEMENT, PREVENTION, AND/OR RE-ENTRY PROGRAMS THAT SERVE THE ENTIRE WDTX OR CERTAIN AREAS/CITIES IN THE WDTX. PRIORITY WILL BE GIVEN TO APPLICATIONS WHEREIN AT LEAST 30% OF THE FUNDING REQUESTED IS COMMITTED TO COMBATTING CRIMINAL GANGS AND TRANSNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH INTERRUPTING VIOLENT OFFENDERS, PREVENTING INDIVIDUALS FROM JOINING GANGS, AND ADDRESSING RECIDIVISM.
WDTX PROPOSED BUDGET FY22
RESEARCH PARTNER 15%
LAW ENFORCEMENT, PREVENTION, AND RE-ENTRY DISTRICT-WIDE 85%
(30% OF THIS FUNDING IS COMMITTED TO INVESTIGATING AND INTERRUPTING GANG ACTIVITY)

THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS FY2023 PSN PROGRAM PROPOSES TO BUILD ON THE SUCCESS OF OUR FY2022 PSN PROGRAM TO FURTHER REDUCE VIOLENT CRIME AND GANG ACTIVITY ACROSS THE DISTRICT. IN THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE DISTRICT, THE BEAUMONT-PORT ARTHUR METROPOLITAN AREA IS A FOUR-COUNTY REGION BISECTED BY INTERSTATE 10 THAT IS HOME TO LARGE FEDERAL AND STATE PRISON FACILITIES. THE MURDER RATE IN BEAUMONT AND PORT ARTHUR IS WELL ABOVE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. IN THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE DISTRICT, LONGVIEW AND TEXARKANA ARE EXPERIENCING SIGNIFICANT VIOLENT CRIME DRIVEN LARGELY BY JUVENILES. THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE DISTRICT CONTINUES TO SEE MASSIVE POPULATION GROWTH IN PLANO, FRISCO AND MCKINNEY, CITIES LOCATED IN COLLIN COUNTY. VIOLENT CRIME HAS INCREASED ALONG WITH THE POPULATION GROWTH.
IN RESPONSE, THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS OFFICE IS LEADING PSN COMMITTEES IN EACH REGION TO IMPLEMENT AN ENHANCED PSN PLAN TO ENSURE COORDINATION AMONG FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL AGENCIES THAT CAN HELP REDUCE VIOLENT CRIME. TO MAXIMIZE EFFICIENCY, THE PROGRAM PROPOSES TO CONTINUE UTILIZING A DEDICATED RESEARCH PARTNER, DR. MICHAEL BACHMANN, TO BETTER DIRECT OUR RESOURCES; AND LEVERAGING ALL FEDERAL RESOURCES, INCLUDING EXISTING TASK FORCES AND INITIATIVES. THE PSN PARTNERSHIP, WHICH INCLUDES LOCAL AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, IS UNITED IN THEIR COMMITMENT TO A BROAD-BASED, MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH. THIS INCLUDES RESEARCH-DRIVEN, INTELLIGENCE-LED, PROBLEM-SOLVING POLICING AND EFFECTIVE STATE AND FEDERAL PROSECUTION, TOGETHER WITH PREVENTION AND REENTRY STRATEGIES BY COMMUNITY PARTNERS WITH PROVEN TRACK RECORDS OF EFFECTIVE COUNSELING, MENTORING AND OTHER SUPPORTIVE SERVICES WITHIN THE PSN CONTEXT. THE PARTNERING AGENCIES AND ENTITIES ARE FORMALIZING WELL-ESTABLISHED INFORMAL WORKING RELATIONSHIPS THAT WILL BECOME OR REMAIN OPERATIONAL IMMEDIATELY UPON FUNDING OF THIS PROJECT. FURTHER, THE PARTNERSHIPS EXTEND BEYOND THESE AGENCIES AND ENTITIES TO INCLUDE LONG-STANDING FORMAL AND INFORMAL WORKING RELATIONSHIPS WITH PROBATION DEPARTMENTS AND OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AND NONGOVERNMENTAL COMMUNITY RESOURCES.
THE PROJECT WILL USE OUTREACH TO DEVELOP EFFECTIVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS, BETTER UNDERSTAND COMMUNITY NEEDS AND PRIORITIES, AND EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATE HOW ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS ARE REDUCING CRIME AND INCREASING SAFETYENSURING THAT THE COMMUNITY KNOWS THAT ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS ARE FOCUSED ON THE MOST VIOLENT CRIMINALS. USING TRADITIONAL PRESS RELEASES AND OTHER MEDIA, THE PROJECT WILL CONVEY A STRONG DETERRENT MESSAGE. THE PROJECTS PREVENTION EFFORTS WILL FOCUS ON GANGS AND HIGH-RATE OFFENDERS, RELEASED PRISONERS, AND AT-RISK YOUTH.

THE NORTHERN DIVISION OF THE DISTRICT INCLUDES FIVE OF THE DISTRICTS 13 COUNTIES. THESE FIVE COUNTIES ARE AMONG THOSE WITH THE HIGHEST RATES OF POVERTY IN THE STATE. ALABAMAS VIOLENT CRIME RATE TICKED DOWN 2% IN 2021 TO 5.1 INCIDENTS PER 1,000. 1 HOWEVER, IN 2021 ALABAMA WAS 38% HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE IN TERMS OF THE NUMBER OF VIOLENT CRIMES PER CAPITA. THE MOBILE POLICE DEPARTMENTS DATA FOR 2021 SHOWS AN INCREASE OF 18.7% IN VIOLENT CRIME OVER 2020. THE HOMICIDE RATE IN 2021 INCREASED BY 10.9%, ALTHOUGH OVERALL PART I CRIME WAS DOWN 6.6%. THE MOST SERIOUS VIOLENT CRIME PROBLEMS WITHIN THE SDAL ARE REPEAT VIOLENT OFFENDERS AND GANG ACTIVITY, PRIMARILY INVOLVING 18-24 YEAR OLDS OFTEN CLAIMING A NEIGHBORHOOD BASED GANGS (NBGS) OR GROUP AFFILIATION BASED ON FAMILY OR GEOGRAPHY. REPEAT OFFENDERS POSE A SPECIAL CHALLENGE IN THE SMALLER COMMUNITIES OF THE DISTRICT. IN THESE AREAS THE ONGOING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND VIOLENCE PERPETRATED BY A REPEAT OFFENDER IS IMPACTFUL ON THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY.
IN MANY INSTANCES REPEAT OFFENDERS THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT REVOLVED THROUGH THE STATE SYSTEM (SEVERAL TIMES), AND THEIR CONTINUED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY HAS AN OUTSIZED IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITIES IN WHICH THEY VIOLATE THE LAW. NEIGHBORHOOD BASED GANGS, AND THE ATTENDANT VIOLENT CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, WILL LIKELY REMAIN A SIGNIFICANT THREAT IN THE DISTRICT DESPITE LAW ENFORCEMENTS CONTINUAL EFFORTS TO DISMANTLE THEM. NBGS RAPIDLY CHANGING AFFILIATIONS AND THEIR MIGRATION INTO NEW COMMUNITIES WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT TO MITIGATE THE THREATS POSED BY NBGS. AN ONGOING FOCUS OF PSN EFFORTS ALSO INVOLVES IDENTIFYING, LOCATING AND INTERVENING WITH PARTICIPANTS (14-24 YEARS OLD) IN ACTS OF RANDOM FIREARM VIOLENCE WHICH TAKE PLACE ON A RECURRING BASIS. TO FURTHER THIS EFFORT THE CITY OF MOBILE HAS DESIGNATED A YOUTH VIOLENCE PREVENTION COORDINATOR AND INITIATED A DIVERSE STRATEGY TO COMBAT GUN VIOLENCE AND ITS SOURCES, DUBBED OPERATION ECHO STOP.

THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS HAS A LONG-STANDING COMMITMENT TO THE PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOOD (PSN) PROGRAM AND INTENDS TO CONTINUE THAT COMMITMENT FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. THE VIOLENT CRIME RATE IN SEVERAL JURISDICTIONS WITHIN THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS, TO INCLUDE WEST MEMPHIS AND LITTLE ROCK, HAS RISEN SHARPLY IN THE PAST FEW YEARS. BASED ON A BRIEF ANALYSIS OF THE VIOLENT CRIME PATTERNS, LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS NOTED A MARKED INCREASE IN GANG ACTIVITY, LEADING TO AN INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME, TO INCLUDE SEVERAL SHOOTING INCIDENTS. THE U.S. ATTORNEYS OFFICE (USAO) PROPOSES TO DIRECTLY REVIEW AND CONTINUE TO ADOPT GUN CASES ON THE MOST VIOLENT OFFENDERS FROM THE COUNTY PROSECUTING ATTORNEYS OFFICES IN CENTRAL ARKANSAS, PINE BLUFF, WEST MEMPHIS, AND JONESBORO, THE GEOGRAPHIC HOT SPOT AREAS. EXCEPT FOR PINE BLUFF, THE GEOGRAPHIC FOCUS CENTERS AROUND MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SAFETY PARTNERSHIP (PSP), WHICH IS A PROGRAM INITIATED TO FOCUS TOOLS AND RESOURCES TO THESE CITIES TO REDUCE VIOLENT CRIME. PINE BLUFF AND THE PSP CITES HAVE CRIME RATES HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE.
THE USAO EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS IS REQUESTING FUNDS TO CONTINUE THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN (SAP) AND GRANT ACTION PLAN (GAP). THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN ADDRESSES VIOLENT CRIME, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CRIMINAL GANGS AND FELONIOUS GUN POSSESSION CASES. THE PROPOSED PROJECT PERIOD FOR THE PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS (PSN) ACTION PLAN DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION ARE OCTOBER 1, 2021 TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 (36-MONTHS).

CALIFORNIA: LOS ANGELES, VENTURA, SANTA BARBARA, SAN LUIS OBISPO, ORANGE, RIVERSIDE, AND SAN
BERNARDINO COUNTIES. IT IS THE LARGEST DISTRICT IN THE COUNTRY, SERVING OVER 19 MILLION RESIDENTS.
SINCE 2019, MANY NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE CDCA HAVE SEEN AN INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME
AND CRIMES INVOLVING FIREARMS. THREE AREAS THAT HAVE STATISTICALLY HIGH LEVELS OF VIOLENT CRIME
COMPARED TO OTHER AREAS ARE THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AND THE AREAS THAT MAKE UP THE LOS
ANGELES POLICE DEPARTMENTS SOUTHEAST AND 77TH PATROL DIVISIONS.
THE CDCAS ALLOCATION FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023 (FY23) HAS NOT YET BEEN ANNOUNCED. THE
CDCA PSN STRATEGIC PLAN FOR FY22 HAD TWO MAJOR COMPONENTS, AND FUNDING IS TO BE ALLOCATED
ACCORDINGLY: ONE, TO CONTINUE FOCUSING PSN RESOURCES ON THE THREE HIGH-CRIME AREAS IDENTIFIED
ABOVE; AND TWO, TO OFFER A SERIES OF MICRO-GRANTS TO SUPPORT SMALLER-SCALE CRIME REDUCTION
EFFORTS IN CDCA NEIGHBORHOODS WHERE THE FUNDING CAN HAVE A LARGER IMPACT. THE FY23 PSN
STRATEGIC PLAN WILL LIKELY BUILD ON THIS CURRENT MODEL, WITH ANY CHANGES BASED ON CRIME STATISTICS
AND ANALYSIS PROVIDED BY THE PSN RESEARCH PARTNER.
PSN PROGRAMS SHOULD BE DESIGNED TO ADDRESS AT LEAST ONE OF THE FOLLOWING:
LAW ENFORCEMENT
INTERVENTION/REHABILITATION
PREVENTION/OUTREACH
RESEARCH
PSN PROGRAMS SHOULD FOCUS ON ISSUES SPECIFIC TO THE CDCA, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
GANG VIOLENCE, THE PROLIFERATION OF GHOST GUNS, SILENCERS, AND GLOCK AUTO-SWITCHES OR AUTOSEARS, REPEAT AND HABITUAL OFFENDERS, FIREARMS POSSESSION BY PROHIBITED PEOPLE, SUCH AS FELONS AND
DOMESTIC ABUSERS, COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL ROBBERIES, AND VIOLENCE RELATED TO HOMELESSNESS.
BECAUSE THE CDCA EXPERIENCES A SPIKE IN VIOLENT CRIME DURING THE SUMMER, PSN PROGRAMS
SHOULD INCLUDE A SUMMER VIOLENCE REDUCTION STRATEGY.
PSN PROGRAMS AND PROVIDERS WILL USE A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH TO PARTNER WITH OTHER PSN
COMPONENTS AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS TO BUILD ON EXISTING PUBLIC SAFETY EFFORTS. THE UNITED

ON BEHALF OF THE U.S. ATTORNEYS OFFICE FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN (USAO), THE WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE (DOJ), THE STATE ADMINISTERING AGENCY (SAA) AND FISCAL AGENT, REQUESTS $121,199 IN FEDERAL FUNDING FOR A 36-MONTH PROJECT TO BUILD ON EXISTING EFFORTS ADDRESSING VIOLENT CRIME IN THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN.
THE DISTRICTS LARGEST CITY IS MADISON, WHICH HAS A POPULATION OF 269,840 (U.S. CENSUS ESTIMATE 2021) AND IS IN DANE COUNTY WHICH HAS AN ESTIMATED POPULATION OF 563,951. IT IS WISCONSINS SECOND LARGEST CITY AND ONE OF ITS FASTEST GROWING. THE PSN TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA (TEA) FOR THE USAO OF THE WESTERN DISTRICT IS THE GREATER MADISON AREA. THE OFFICE HAS A VERY STRONG WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE MADISON POLICE DEPARTMENT (MPD), SURROUNDING LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCIES, AND DANE COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OFFICE TO ADDRESS VIOLENT CRIME.
THE USAO FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN ALSO WORKS CLOSELY WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT TO ADDRESS THEIR NEEDS. THIS INCLUDES COLLABORATING WITH AGENCIES ON THEIR COMMUNITY VIOLENCE INITIATIVE WHICH INCLUDES COORDINATION BETWEEN STREET LEVEL LAW ENFORCEMENT, MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, SOCIAL SERVICES, AND HEALTH ADVOCATES. ONE OF THE CITIES THAT THE USAO OF THE WESTERN DISTRICT CLOSELY COLLABORATES WITH IS THE CITY OF LA CROSSE. IN RECENT YEARS THEY HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING VIOLENT CRIME SIGNIFICANTLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO A CITY THEIR SIZE. JANESVILLE AND BELOIT WHICH ARE BETWEEN THE MADISON AND ILLINOIS BORDER, HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN HOT SPOTS FOR VIOLENT CRIME. BECAUSE OF THAT, THE POLICE DEPARTMENTS IN THOSE THREE CITIES HAVE APPLIED AND RECEIVED FUNDING UNDER THE 2019, 2020, AND 2021 PSN GRANTS. WHILE THEY ARE NOT IN THE TEA, THOSE DEPARTMENTS HAVE VALUED THE USAOS RELATIONSHIP, OUTREACH, AND CASE OUTCOMES.
THE USAO HAS CHOSEN SEVERAL KEY PARTNERS TO WORK WITH ON THEIR ONGOING EFFORTS AROUND VIOLENT CRIME, INCLUDING CITY AND COUNTY AGENCIES THAT HAVE FORMED THE COMMUNITY SAFETY INTERVENTION TEAM. THE GROUP INCLUDES REPRESENTATIVES OF THE MAYORS OFFICE, MADISON POLICE DEPARTMENT, MULTIPLE CITY AND DANE COUNTY AGENCIES, THE MADISON METROPOLITAN SCHOOL DISTRICT, FOCUSED INTERRUPTION COALITION, UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN HEALTH, AND AREA NONPROFITS.

THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ALABAMA IS MADE UP OF THE 13 COUNTIES LOCATED IN THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE STATE. THE MAJORITY OF THE DISTRICT CONSISTS OF RURAL AREAS WHICH ENCOMPASS SMALL MUNICIPALITIES. MOBILE, THE DISTRICT’S LARGEST POPULATION CENTER, IS AT THE INTERSECTION OF TWO MAJOR NORTH-SOUTH AND EAST-WEST INTERSTATES I-65 AND I-10, AND IS A 30 MINUTE DRIVE TO MISSISSIPPI OR FLORIDA. THE NORTHERN DIVISION OF THE DISTRICT INCLUDES FIVE OF THE DISTRICT’S 13 COUNTIES. THESE FIVE COUNTIES ARE AMONG THOSE WITH THE HIGHEST RATES OF POVERTY IN THE STATE.
ALABAMA’S VIOLENT CRIME RATE TICKED DOWN 2% IN 2021 TO 5.1 INCIDENTS PER 1,000. HOWEVER, IN 2021 ALABAMA WAS 38% HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE IN TERMS OF THE NUMBER OF VIOLENT CRIMES PER CAPITA. THE MOBILE POLICE DEPARTMENT’S DATA FOR 2021 SHOWS AN INCREASE OF 18.7% IN VIOLENT CRIME OVER 2020. THE HOMICIDE RATE IN 2021 INCREASED BY 10.9%, ALTHOUGH OVERALL PART I CRIME WAS DOWN 6.6%.
THE MOST SERIOUS VIOLENT CRIME PROBLEMS WITHIN THE SDAL ARE REPEAT VIOLENT OFFENDERS AND GANG ACTIVITY, PRIMARILY INVOLVING 18-24 YEAR OLDS OFTEN CLAIMING A NEIGHBORHOOD BASED GANGS (NBGS) OR GROUP AFFILIATION BASED ON FAMILY OR GEOGRAPHY. REPEAT OFFENDERS POSE A SPECIAL CHALLENGE IN THE SMALLER COMMUNITIES OF THE DISTRICT. IN THESE AREAS THE ONGOING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND VIOLENCE PERPETRATED BY A REPEAT OFFENDER IS IMPACTFUL ON THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. IN MANY INSTANCES REPEAT OFFENDERS THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT REVOLVED THROUGH THE STATE SYSTEM (SEVERAL TIMES), AND THEIR CONTINUED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY HAS AN OUTSIZED IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITIES IN WHICH THEY VIOLATE THE LAW.

CRIME IN ALABAMA IS INCREASING, IS BECOMING MORE VIOLENT, AND IT FREQUENTLY INVOLVES THE PRESENCE OF A FIREARM. SINCE 2010, THERE HAS BEEN AN 87% INCREASE IN HOMICIDES, A 56% INCREASE IN ASSAULTS, A 98% INCREASE IN AGGRAVATED DOMESTIC ASSAULTS, AND A 60% INCREASE IN RAPE. DRUG OVERDOSE DEATHS IN ALABAMA INCREASED BY MORE THAN 71% FROM 2020 - 2022. BASED UPON 2020 ATF TRACING DATA, ALABAMA IS A TOP 15 SOURCE STATE OF FIREARMS FOR ARKANSAS, CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, HAWAII, ILLINOIS, KANSAS, KENTUCKY, LOUISIANA, MARYLAND, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, MISSISSIPPI, NEW JERSEY, NEW MEXICO, NEW YORK, NORTH CAROLINA, OHIO, OKLAHOMA, PUERTO RICO, SOUTH CAROLINA, TENNESSEE, TEXAS, VERMONT, VIRGINIA, AND WEST VIRGINIA.
THE FIVE CITIES OF ANNISTON, BESSEMER, BIRMINGHAM, HUNTSVILLE, AND TUSCALOOSA ARE VIOLENT CRIME HOTSPOT OUTLIERS, LEADING MOST AREAS OF ALABAMA IN FIREARM RELATED VIOLENT CRIME. THE VIOLENT CRIME RATE IN 2019 FOR ALL OF ALABAMA WAS 467.6 PER 100,000 INHABITANTS. RESPECTIVELY, THE 2019 VIOLENT CRIME RATE PER 100,000 PEOPLE FOR ANNISTON, BESSEMER, BIRMINGHAM, HUNTSVILLE, AND TUSCALOOSA WAS: 1,443.2; 2,923.5; 1,638.7; 861.8, AND 635.9. THESE FIVE HOT SPOTS ARE CENTERS OF VIOLENT, DRUG, AND PROPERTY CRIMES WITHIN THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ALABAMA (NDAL). THE PRIMARY DRIVERS OF CRIME IN THESE HOTSPOTS INCLUDE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, VIOLENT GANGS, DRUG TRAFFICKING, AND STRAW PURCHASES.

VIOLENT CRIME IS RISING THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALABAMA. HOWEVER, THE MOST PREDOMINANT FIREARMS/VIOLENT CRIME ISSUE IN THE DISTRICT REMAINS LOCALIZED IN THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY, AS WELL AS THE COUNTY. THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY HAS THE LARGEST POPULATION IN OUR DISTRICT AND STILL COMPRISES MOST OF THE CASELOAD HANDLED BY BOTH THE U.S. ATTORNEY’S OFFICE. THERE WERE 320 PEOPLE SHOT IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY DURING 2021, WITH AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF THEM LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS. THERE WERE 75 HOMICIDE INVESTIGATIONS IN 2021, COMPARED TO 69 IN 2020. MONTGOMERY’S MURDER RATE IS 5.9 TIME GREATER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE, AND 4 TIMES GREATER THAN THE STATE AVERAGE. GANGS, DRUG/GUN TRAFFICKING, AND ILLEGAL FIREARM POSSESSIONS ARE THE MAJOR DRIVING FORCES BEHIND VIOLENT CRIME.
ALTHOUGH A GREAT DEAL OF FOCUS IS DEDICATED ON THE MONTGOMERY AREA, THE REALITY IS THAT VIOLENT CRIME, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT RELATES TO GANG ACTIVITY, IS ITINERATE AND OCCURS ACROSS MULTIPLE JURISDICTIONS. THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY HAS NUMEROUS MAJOR ROADWAYS CONNECTING IT TO OTHER COUNTIES AND MUNICIPALITIES. THESE ROADWAYS PROVIDE TRAVELERS WITH AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY TO REACH ENDLESS DESTINATIONS, WHETHER ORIGINATING IN MONTGOMERY OR SIMPLY PASSING THROUGH TO DESTINATIONS SUCH AS ATLANTA, BIRMINGHAM, NASHVILLE, OR THE GULF COAST. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY ALSO PROVIDE CRIMINALS AND GANG MEMBERS WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND THEIR AREAS OF OPERATION. CITIES THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT ARE IMPACTED BY CRIME BASED OUT OF MONTGOMERY AND SURROUNDING METROPOLITAN AREAS IN ADJOINING STATES. THEREFORE, CONNECTING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY OCCURRING IN DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS IS ESSENTIAL IN COMBATTING VIOLENT CRIME.
MANY OF THE OFFENDERS COMMITTING VIOLENT CRIME IN THE DISTRICT HAVE CRIMINAL RECORDS AND HAVE BEEN “THROUGH THE SYSTEM” MULTIPLE TIMES. THE ALABAMA BUREAU OF PARDONS AND PAROLES SYSTEM REMAINS OVERBURDENED, AND THE STATE PRISON SYSTEM IS STILL DESPERATELY OVERCROWDED. THUS, CLOSE SUPERVISION OF ALL PROBATIONERS AND PAROLEES IS VERY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE OVERBURDEN OF STATE RESOURCES.

THE PSN TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA FOR THIS GRANT APPLICATION HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS TWO DISTINCT AREAS: (1) THE URBAN AREA IDENTIFIED AS THE GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARIES OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE, AND (2) THE RURAL AREA LOCATED OFF THE ROAD SYSTEM COMPRISED OF THE COMMUNITIES OF BETHEL, DILLINGHAM, KOTZEBUE, NOME, AND NORTH SLOPE BOROUGH.
THE RATE OF MURDERS AND AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS IS HIGH WITHIN THE DISTRICT OF ALASKA IN 2020, THE YEAR IN WHICH THE MOST RECENT UCR DATA IS AVAILABLE. AS OF 2020, THE DISTRICT OF ALASKA FINDS ITSELF ABOVE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE IN TERMS OF HOMICIDES, ROBBERIES, AND ASSAULTS. VIOLENT CRIME IN THE RURAL TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA IS FUELED BY ALCOHOL WITH HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE.
THE ILLEGAL POSSESSION OF FIREARMS AND THE USE OF FIREARMS IN VIOLENT CRIME HAS BEEN AN AREA OF CONCERN WITHIN BOTH THE URBAN AND RURAL TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS. OUT OF THE 48 MURDERS COMMITTED IN ALASKA IN 2020, THE MURDER WEAPON WAS A FIREARM IN 25 DEATHS. MANY OF THE FIREARM CRIMES WITHIN BOTH TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS ARE BEING COMMITTED BY THOSE WITH PRIOR FELONY CONVICTIONS.
PROPOSED EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS INCLUDE CONCERTED COORDINATION WITH FEDERAL, LOCAL, AND STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PROSECUTORS IN IDENTIFYING AND DEVELOPING STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION. THAT COORDINATION INCLUDES MUNICIPAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES SHARING INTELLIGENCE REGARDING VIOLENT OFFENDERS, CRIME TRENDING ANALYSIS, COORDINATING CRIME REDUCTION EFFORTS, PROMOTING PUBLIC AND OFFICER SAFETY, IMPROVING POLICE COMMUNITY RELATIONS, ENCOURAGING NETWORKING AND COMMUNICATION BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND SWIFTER REFERRAL OF STATE CASES INVOLVING VIOLENT OFFENDERS FOR FEDERAL PROSECUTION.
THE PSN TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS WERE IDENTIFIED USING UCR DATA, PSN PARTNER INTELLIGENCE SHARING, AND FOR THE MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE, COMMUNITY CRIME MAPPING.
KEY PSN PARTNERS INCLUDE U.S. ATTORNEY’S OFFICE AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY PARTNERS, FBI, ATF, DEA, HSI; STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT PARTNERS, THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICES, ALASKA STATE TROOPERS; LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT PARTNERS, ANCHORAGE POLICE DEPARTMENT, UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA CAMPUS POLICE, BETHEL POLICE DEPARTMENT, NORTH SLOPE BOROUGH POLICE DEPARTMENT, NOME POLICE DEPARTMENT, KOTZEBUE POLICE DEPARTMENT, AND DILLINGHAM POLICE DEPARTMENT.

FRESNO, CITY OF
THE CITY/COUNTY OF FRESNO, CALIFORNIA HAD A TUMULTUOUS 2021 AND RECENT INCREASE IN 2022 FOR AN UNPRECEDENTED SURGE OF VIOLENT CRIME, INCLUDING GANG RELATED HOMICIDES INVOLVING A FIREARM AND NON-FATAL SHOOTINGS. FURTHER EXACERBATING AND CONTRIBUTING TO THE SURGE IN VIOLENT GUN CRIMES ARE LARGE NUMBERS OF FEUDING GANG MEMBERS, AND A STEADY SUPPLY OF FIREARMS, INCLUDING “GHOST GUNS” INTO THE HANDS OF OFFENDERS. THE SURGE OF VIOLENT CRIME OVERWHELMED FRESNO POLICE DEPARTMENT (FPD) UNITS AND RESOURCES TASKED WITH INVESTIGATING VIOLENT CRIMES, LEAVING LITTLE TIME FOR ANALYSIS AND LONG-TERM INVESTIGATIONS OF VIOLENT GUN CRIMES AND SOURCES OF SUPPLY OF ILLEGAL FIREARMS.
THE PROJECT IS CENTERED AROUND THE UPGRADES OF THE MULTI-AGENCY GANG TASK FORCE/FRESNO WIRE ROOM IN COLLABORATION WITH THE FRESNO COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S (DA) OFFICE, AND THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE (AUSA).

TAMMANY, TANGIPAHOA, TERREBONNE, AND WASHINGTON. THESE PARISHES HOLD DIVERSE COMMUNITIES, BE IT THROUGH RACIAL, SOCIO-ECONOMIC, ETHNIC, OR AGE OF THE POPULATION. THESE DIFFERENCES, HOWEVER, ARE INCONSEQUENTIAL WHEN LOOKING AT THE RECENT BOOM OF VIOLENT CRIME THAT HAS OCCURRED THROUGHOUT THE PARISHES.
THE ENTIRE AREA OF THE EASTERN DISTRICT, HAS IN RECENT YEARS, BEEN STRICKEN WITH INCREASING VIOLENT CRIME. THESE CRIMES INCLUDE CARJACKINGS AND ROBBERIES THAT ARE OCCURRING IN POPULATED/FREQUENTLY VISITED AREAS DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS. HISTORICALLY, THESE TYPES OF CRIMES HAVE BEEN SEEN AS OCCURRING AT NIGHT AND OFTEN IN HIGH CRIME-URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS. THAT PERCEPTION HAS BEEN CHALLENGED OF LATE, WITH THE CITIZENS OF THE THIRTEEN PARISHES, AND SPECIFICALLY THOSE IN ORLEANS PARISH AND THE SURROUNDING METROPOLITAN AREAS, SCARED TO GO ABOUT THEIR DAILY LIVES AND TASKS, SUCH AS GETTING GAS AT COSTCO OR GROCERY SHOPPING, FOR FEAR OF A VIOLENT ACT BEING PERPETRATED ON THEMSELVES OR A FAMILY MEMBER.
DUE TO THIS EXPANSION OF CRIMES WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY, THE U.S. ATTORNEY’S OFFICE HAS PARTNERED WITH LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, SUCH AS, THE DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION (DEA), THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION (FBI), THE U.S. MARSHAL’S SERVICE, THE ORLEANS PARISH DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICE, THE ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, FIREARMS & EXPLOSIVES (ATF), AND THE NEW ORLEANS POLICE DEPARTMENT, TO WORK TOGETHER TO COMBAT THIS EXPLODING WAVE OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS, WESTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI
UNDER THE COORDINATION AND LEADERSHIP OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY’S OFFICE (USAO) A PSN TASK FORCE RE-ESTABLISHED IN 2018 AND IS CURRENTLY ASSISTING IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF PSN GRANT 2019-GP-BX-0062, PSN GRANT 2020-GP-BX-0004 AND 2021 GRANT #15PBJA-21-GG-03035. THE TASK FORCE COMBINES FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, FORMER AND RETIRED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS, AND LOCAL BUSINESSES AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO IMPLEMENT A COMPREHENSIVE HOLISTIC CRIME REDUCTION PROGRAM. THE OVERWHELMING RESPONSE FROM PARTNERS INVOLVED IN THIS TASK FORCE HAS BEEN VERY POSITIVE.
THE PROPOSED PROJECT PERIOD IS OCTOBER 1, 2022, THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2025, CONTINGENT ON FUNDING AVAILABILITY TO IMPLEMENT OUR ACTION PLAN. THROUGH INTELLIGENCE SHARING WITH THE JACKSON COUNTY PROSECUTOR’S OFFICE, KANSAS CITY MISSOURI POLICE DEPARTMENT (KCPD), AND OTHER STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCIES, THE PSN TASK FORCE HAS IDENTIFIED AREAS WITH THE HIGHEST VIOLENT CRIME RATES IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI TO BE TARGETED FOR A VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION STRATEGY. THE VIOLENT CRIMES IN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA ARE DRIVEN BY GANG OR GROUP RELATED NARCOTICS ACTIVITY INCLUDING RETALIATION DRIVEN CRIMES.
THE PSN TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA IS GENERALLY DEFINED BY GEOGRAPHIC STREET BOUNDARIES FROM ST. JOHN AVENUE (1ST STREET) TO 85TH STREET, AND TROOST AVENUE TO VAN BRUNT BOULEVARD EXTENDED. IN A 5-YEAR PERIOD OF TIME FROM JANUARY 2015 THROUGH DECEMBER 2019, 484 HOMICIDES HAVE OCCURRED IN THIS AREA. AN AVERAGE OF 97 HOMICIDES PER YEAR. ALSO, THIS IS 71% OF THE 678 HOMICIDES OCCURRING IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI DURING THAT TIME. THERE WAS AN AVERAGE OF 136 HOMICIDES PER YEAR. FURTHER, IN 2020 WE WERE A LITTLE OVER THE AVERAGE IN THE TA WITH 99 HOMICIDES VERSUS THE 5-YEAR AVERAGE OF 97. THIS WAS 63% OF THE RECORD YEAR OF 156 HOMICIDES IN KANSAS CITY. CONSEQUENTLY, WHILE THE PERCENTAGE OF HOMICIDES IN THE TARGET AREA WAS 8% LESS THAN THE 5-YEAR AVERAGE, THE SELECTED TARGET AREA REMAINS AN IMPORTANT AREA FOR COMMUNITY POLICING, NEIGHBORHOOD ACTION AND ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS.
WE PROPOSE BUILDING UPON PAST SUCCESSFUL EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS TO SHARE INTELLIGENCE, STAY CURRENT ON IDENTIFYING SPECIFIC VIOLENT CRIME HOT SPOTS WITHIN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS TO PROVIDE COORDINATED POLICE RESPONSE TO THOSE AREAS, AND TO IDENTIFY PROLIFIC VIOLENT OFFENDERS DRIVING THE VIOLENCE. WE ARE ALSO PARTNERING WITH THE KANSAS CITY, MO. POLICE DEPARTMENT’S LAW ENFORCEMENT RESOURCE CENTER WHERE THE RECENTLY ESTABLISHED MIDWEST CRIME GUN INTELLIGENCE CENTER (CGIC) IS LOCATED AND A GANG INTELLIGENCE SQUAD TO ASSIST WITH IDENTIFYING THE VIOLENT ACTIVE TRIGGER PULLERS IN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA FOR INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION.
THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI’S PSN PROGRAM IS ALSO WORKING TO PARTNER WITH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND PREVENTION ASSETS TO REDUCE VIOLENT CRIME. THE PSN PROGRAM PLANS TO REINTRODUCE SEVERAL PROVEN PAST COMMUNITY AWARENESS STRATEGIES, AND ADD TO THEM A TARGETED SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN, TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE THAT THOSE COMMITTING VIOLENT ACTS IN OUR COMMUNITY WILL FACE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES.

DELAWARE’S FY 2022 PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS
PROJECT ABSTRACT
VIOLENT CRIMES HAVE BEEN STEADILY INCREASING IN DOVER, DELAWARE DESPITE ONGOING EFFORTS TO COMBAT VIOLENCE. 2022 IS SHOWING NO SIGNS OF RELIEF. THIS PROJECT, BEGINNING OCTOBER 1, 2022 – SEPTEMBER 30, 2025, WILL UTILIZE PSN FUNDS TO AUGMENT AND EXPAND EXISTING EFFORTS TARGETING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY IN THE CITY OF DOVER. WE PROPOSE TO TARGET HIGH CRIME AND VIOLENT AREAS OF THE CITY BY INCREASING DIRECTED PATROLS USING FUNDS FOR OVERTIME. THE DOVER PD WILL BE SUPPORTED IN THEIR EFFORTS WHEN NEEDED BY THE DELAWARE STATE POLICE. OUR COMMUNITY OUTREACH EFFORT WITH BE DRIVEN BY N-CALL WHO WILL HAVE TWO INDIVIDUALS OR “BOOTS ON THE GROUND” WORKING IN THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY SOME OF THE REASONS FOR CERTAIN AREAS TO HAVE A HIGHER CRIME RATE THAN OTHERS, TO PROVIDE SOME INTERVENTION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TO IDENTIFY POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE INFLUENCERS. AS A RESULT, THIS WILL FOSTER BETTER POLICE/COMMUNITY RELATIONS TO HELP REDUCE VIOLENT AND GANG RELATED CRIME IN OUR TARGET AREAS THAT ARE WITHIN THE CITY OF DOVER.
PAST EFFORTS OF PSN IN DOVER AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS HAS BROUGHT TOGETHER LEADERSHIP TO INVESTIGATE A MEANS OF COORDINATING EFFORTS. THROUGH REAL TIME CRIME ANALYSIS AND COORDINATED EFFORTS OF THE RESEARCH PARTNER AT DELAWARE STATE UNIVERSITY, WE CAN KNOW WHERE AND WHEN CRIME HOT SPOTS OCCUR AND HOW THEY CORRELATE WITH SOCIAL INDICATORS. HOWEVER, BUDGETARY RESTRICTIONS MADE IT DIFFICULT TO TARGET POLICE EFFORTS ON HOT SPOTS ON AN ONGOING BASIS. ALTHOUGH ANALYSES WILL ALLOW A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF DOVER HOT SPOTS, THE QUESTION OF WHY CRIME IS CLUSTERING IN A FEW SPECIFIC AREAS REMAINS ELUSIVE. BY INCREASING POLICE EFFORTS THROUGH PSN FUNDING AND TARGETING THOSE EFFORTS AT THE DRIVERS OF CRIME THROUGH RISK TERRAIN MODELING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE DSU RESEARCH TEAM, WE HOPE TO DEMONSTRATE A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN OVERALL VIOLENT CRIME AND SPECIFICALLY FIREARMS VIOLENCE. THE GOAL OF PSN IS TO REDUCE GUN CRIME AND GANG VIOLENCE OUTCOMES. PSN’S SUCCESS WILL BE MEASURED BY A 10% REDUCTION IN VIOLENT/GUN CRIME AND GANG VIOLENCE. WHILE FOCUSING 30% ON GANG RELATED ACTIVITIES AND VIOLENCE INTERVENTION.

THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ALABAMA IS MADE UP OF THE 13 COUNTIES LOCATED IN THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE STATE. THE MAJORITY OF THE DISTRICT CONSISTS OF RURAL AREAS WHICH ENCOMPASS SMALL MUNICIPALITIES. MOBILE, THE DISTRICT’S LARGEST POPULATION CENTER, IS AT THE INTERSECTION OF TWO MAJOR NORTH-SOUTH AND EAST-WEST INTERSTATES I-65 AND I-10, AND IS A 30 MINUTE DRIVE TO MISSISSIPPI OR FLORIDA.
ALABAMA’S VIOLENT CRIME RATE DIPPED 2% FROM 5.2 INCIDENTS PER 1,000 IN 2020 TO 5.1 THIS YEAR. EVEN SO ALABAMA IS 38% HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE WHEN IT COMES TO THE NUMBER OF VIOLENT CRIMES PER CAPITA. DESPITE HIGHER OVERALL CRIME RATES, BOTH VIOLENT AND PROPERTY CRIMES DECREASED YEAR OVER YEAR IN ALABAMA. THE MOBILE POLICE DEPARTMENT’S DATA FOR 2020 SHOWS A SMALL UPTICK OF 1.3% IN VIOLENT CRIME OVER 2019. HOWEVER, THE HOMICIDE RATE WHICH HAD INCREASED IN 2019 BY A SUBSTANTIAL 42.9% OVER THE PREVIOUS YEAR, INCREASED IN 2020 BY 15% OVER 2019.
THE MOST SERIOUS VIOLENT CRIME PROBLEMS WITHIN THE SDAL ARE REPEAT VIOLENT OFFENDERS AND GANG ACTIVITY, PRIMARILY IN THE FORM OF NEIGHBORHOOD BASED GANGS (NBGS) OR INDIVIDUALS/SMALL GROUPS CLAIMING GANG (FAMILIAL OR TERRITORIAL) AFFILIATION. REPEAT OFFENDERS POSE A SPECIAL CHALLENGE IN THE SMALLER COMMUNITIES OF THE DISTRICT. IN THESE AREAS THE ONGOING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND VIOLENCE PERPETRATED BY A REPEAT OFFENDER IS IMPACTFUL ON THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. IN MANY INSTANCES REPEAT OFFENDERS THROUGHOUT THE DISTRICT REVOLVED THROUGH THE STATE SYSTEM (SEVERAL TIMES), AND THEIR CONTINUED CRIMINAL ACTIVITY HAS A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THE COMMUNITIES IN WHICH THEY VIOLATE THE LAW.
AMIDST THE NBG ACTIVITY IN SELMA/DALLAS COUNTY, DRUG ACTIVITY IS PERVASIVE. ALONG WITH THIS ONGOING DRUG ACTIVITY COMES THE USUAL ATTENDANT VIOLENCE BETWEEN RIVAL “GANGS”. THE SAME TYPE OF NBG VIOLENT CRIME ACTIVITY HAS ALSO BEEN IDENTIFIED IN SPECIFIC HOT-SPOT AREAS OF THE CITY OF MOBILE. AN ONGOING FOCUS OF PSN EFFORTS ALSO INVOLVES IDENTIFYING, LOCATING AND INTERVENING WITH PARTICIPANTS (14-24 YEARS OLD) IN ACTS OF RANDOM FIREARM VIOLENCE WHICH TAKE PLACE ON A RECURRING BASIS.
NEIGHBORHOOD BASED GANGS, AND THE ATTENDANT VIOLENT CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, WILL LIKELY REMAIN A SIGNIFICANT THREAT IN THE DISTRICT DESPITE LAW ENFORCEMENT’S CONTINUAL EFFORTS TO DISMANTLE THEM. NBGS RAPIDLY CHANGING AFFILIATIONS AND THEIR MIGRATION INTO NEW COMMUNITIES WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT TO MITIGATE THE THREATS POSED BY NBGS. NBGS LOCATED IN HOT-SPOTS AND/OR FINANCIALLY DEPRESSED AREAS IN THE DISTRICT WILL CONTINUE TO BE DETRIMENTAL TO COMMUNITY RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY FOR THE IMPRESSIONABLE YOUNG ADULTS WHO ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO GANG RECRUITMENT.

THE FOUR CITIES OF ANNISTON, BIRMINGHAM, BESSEMER, AND TUSCALOOSA, WHICH STRETCH EAST TO WEST ACROSS THE INTERSTATE 20/59 CORRIDOR, ARE VIOLENT CRIME HOTSPOT OUTLIERS LEADING MOST AREAS OF ALABAMA IN FIREARMS AND VIOLENT CRIME. IN 2019, THERE WERE 22,927 REPORTED VIOLENT CRIMES AND 140,306 PART I CRIMES IN ALABAMA. THE FIVE CITIES OF ANNISTON, BIRMINGHAM, BESSEMER, AND TUSCALOOSA COLLECTIVELY ACCOUNT FOR 5,204 OF VIOLENT CRIMES AND 25,094 OF ALL PART I CRIMES IN ALABAMA. THE VIOLENT CRIME RATE IN 2019 FOR ALL OF ALABAMA WAS 467.6 PER 100,000 INHABITANTS. RESPECTIVELY, THE 2019 VIOLENT CRIME RATE PER 100,000 PEOPLE FOR ANNISTON, BESSEMER, BIRMINGHAM, AND TUSCALOOSA WAS: 1,443.19; 2,923.53; 1,638.74; AND 635.88. THESE FOUR HOT SPOTS ARE CENTERS OF VIOLENT, DRUG, AND PROPERTY CRIMES WITHIN THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ALABAMA. THE PRIMARY DRIVERS OF CRIME IN THESE HOTSPOTS INCLUDE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, VIOLENT GANGS, DRUG TRAFFICKING, AND STRAW PURCHASES.
CRIME IN ALABAMA IS INCREASING, IS BECOMING MORE VIOLENT, AND IT FREQUENTLY INVOLVES THE PRESENCE OF A FIREARM. SINCE 2010, THERE HAS BEEN AN 87% INCREASE IN HOMICIDES, A 56% INCREASE IN ASSAULTS, A 98% INCREASE IN AGGRAVATED DOMESTIC ASSAULTS, AND A 60% INCREASE IN RAPE. SINCE 2016, THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN 150 DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HOMICIDES AND MORE THAN 20,000 AGGRAVATED DOMESTIC ASSAULTS IN ALABAMA. IN 2018, THERE WERE MORE THAN 35,000 DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CRIMES COMMITTED IN ALABAMA. IN JEFFERSON COUNTY ALONE IN 2020, THERE WERE MORE THAN 14,000 CALLS FOR SERVICE MADE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT IN RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC INCIDENCES. PRELIMINARY NUMBERS FOR 2021 INDICATE AN INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME IN EACH OF THE FOUR DESIGNATED PSN PROJECT LOCALITIES. FOUR MONTHS INTO 2021, BESSEMER HAS MATCHED ITS HOMICIDE TOTAL FOR ALL OF 2020.

ALTHOUGH VIOLENT CRIME IS RISING SLIGHTLY THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF ALABAMA, THE MOST PREDOMINANT FIREARMS/VIOLENT CRIME ISSUE IN THE DISTRICT REMAINS LOCALIZED WITHIN OUR PSN TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA OF MONTGOMERY. THE CITY OF MONTGOMERY HAS THE LARGEST POPULATION IN OUR DISTRICT AND COMPRISES MOST OF THE CASELOAD HANDLED BY BOTH THE U.S. ATTORNEY’S OFFICE. ALTHOUGH 2020 SAW A REDUCTION IN PROPERTY CRIMES IN THE CITY, LIKELY DUE TO THE PANDEMIC, MONTGOMERY CONTINUES TO SEE AN ALARMING INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME. OVER THAT PAST TWO YEARS VIOLENT CRIME, INCLUDING HOMICIDES, FELONY SEX CASES, ROBBERY, AND ASSAULT, HAS INCREASED OVER 20%. THERE WERE 377 PEOPLE SHOT IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY DURING 2020, WITH AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF THEM LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS. THERE WERE 69 HOMICIDE INVESTIGATIONS IN 2020, COMPARED TO 42 IN 2019. GANGS, DRUG/GUN TRAFFICKING, AND ILLEGAL FIREARM POSSESSIONS ARE THE MAJOR DRIVING FORCES BEHIND VIOLENT CRIME.
MANY OF THE OFFENDERS COMMITTING VIOLENT CRIME IN THE CITY HAVE CRIMINAL RECORDS AND HAVE BEEN “THROUGH THE SYSTEM” MULTIPLE TIMES. THE ALABAMA BOARD OF PARDONS AND PAROLES (AL PAROLES) SYSTEM REMAINS OVERBURDENED AND THE STATE PRISON SYSTEM IS STILL DESPERATELY OVERCROWDED. THUS, CLOSE SUPERVISION OF ALL PROBATIONERS AND PAROLEES IS VERY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE OVERBURDEN OF STATE RESOURCES.
THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY’S OFFICE (USAO) WILL CONTINUE A FORCEFUL PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS STRATEGY TO MAKE THE CITY SAFER. THE COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY WILL USE A MULTI-FACETED APPROACH TO DECREASE VIOLENT GUN AND GANG CRIME THROUGH TARGETED ENFORCEMENT, COLLABORATION BETWEEN LOCAL AND FEDERAL PROSECUTORS, ALONG WITH REENTRY AND COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTION.
THE PSN TEAM (THE TEAM) WILL CONTINUE TO PRIORITIZE VIOLENT OFFENDERS WHO MAY FACE MORE CERTAIN AND APPROPRIATE PUNISHMENT IN THE FEDERAL SYSTEM, INCLUDING FEDERAL PROSECUTIONS FOR ILLEGAL FIREARM POSSESSION. THE TEAM WILL REINVIGORATE A PARTNERSHIP PLAN WITH THE AL PAROLES AND ATF TO IDENTIFY VIOLENT PROBATIONER AND PAROLEE INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE AT HIGH RISK TO REOFFEND. THE GOAL IS THAT INDIVIDUALS ARE IDENTIFIED THROUGH THE AL PAROLES DATA DRIVEN METRIC SYSTEM AS HIGH RISK AND THAT HOME VISITS BE CONDUCTED THAT MAY RESULT IN THE DISCOVERY OF FIREARMS AND/OR OTHER FACTORS INDICATING VIOLENT CRIME. HOME VISITS ARE CONDUCTED WITH ATF TFOS PRESENT OR IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY. UPON IDENTIFICATION OF THE NEED FOR INVESTIGATION, ATF PERSONNEL WILL BEGIN INVESTIGATING AND COORDINATING WITH THE USAO CONCERNING THE POSSIBILITY OF FEDERAL COMPLAINTS AGAINST THE POTENTIAL DEFENDANTS.
THE USAO COORDINATED A MEETING WITH SEVERAL OF OUR PARTNER AGENCIES WITHIN OUR TARGET AREA OF MONTGOMERY TO DISCUSS PLANS, STRATEGIES, AND IDENTIFICATION OF AREAS WHERE VIOLENT CRIME MAY INCREASE OVER THE SUMMER. EIGHT NEW HOT SPOTS IN THE CITY WHERE INTERVENTION IS NECESSARY WERE IDENTIFIED. WE ALSO DISCUSSED COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAMS CURRENTLY SCHEDULED AND ANY FUTURE PROGRAMS OUR OFFICE COULD PARTICIPATE IN TO HELP COMBAT VIOLENT CRIME. THE FOLLOWING LIST REMAINS AMONG THE TEAM’S PRIORITIES: INCREASED ARREST, PROSECUTION, AND INCARCERATION OF THE MOST SERIOUS AND CHRONIC VIOLENT OFFENDERS, INCLUDING STATE PAROLEES IN VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAWS; DISRUPTION OF ILLEGAL FIREARMS MARKETS; MULTIPLE-LEVEL AND MULTIPLE-AGENCY STRATEGIC RESPONSE TO HOMICIDES AND OTHER VIOLENT CRIMES; UTILIZATION OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE DATA FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO IDENTIFY GEOGRAPHICAL FOCUS AREAS AND POTENTIAL HIGH RISK REOFFENDERS; AND THE CONTINUED COLLECTION AND MONITORING OF CRIME DATA FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT TO MEASURE RESULTS OF CRIME REDUCTION EFFORTS.
THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY SHERRIFF’S OFFICE IS COMMITTED TO REINITIATING ITS TFO PROGRAM TO IMBED LOCAL RESOURCES WITHIN THAT ORGANIZATION TO HELP COMBAT VIOLENT CRIME. ATF HAS COMMITTED TO SHARING RESOURCES, INCLUDING THE NIBIN SYSTEM, TO HELP INVESTIGATE VIOLENT CRIME AND TRACK THE SALE, MOVEMENT, AND USE OF FIREARMS WITHIN THE DISTRICT.

THE RATE OF MURDERS AND AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS INCREASED WITHIN THE DISTRICT OF ALASKA IN 2019 COMPARED TO 2018. ALASKA’S MURDER RATE IS AT ITS HIGHEST POINT IN FIVE YEARS ACCORDING TO THE MOST RECENT STATEWIDE AVAILABLE UCR 2019 DATA. AS OF 2019, THE DISTRICT OF ALASKA FINDS ITSELF ABOVE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE IN TERMS OF HOMICIDES, ROBBERIES, AND ASSAULTS. VIOLENT CRIME IN THE RURAL TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA IS FUELED BY ALCOHOL WITH HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE.
THE ILLEGAL POSSESSION OF FIREARMS AND THE USE OF FIREARMS IN VIOLENT CRIME HAS BEEN AN AREA OF CONCERN WITHIN BOTH THE URBAN AND RURAL TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS. OUT OF THE 70 MURDERS COMMITTED IN ALASKA IN 2019, THE MURDER WEAPON WAS A FIREARM IN 52 DEATHS. MANY OF THE FIREARM CRIMES WITHIN BOTH TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS ARE BEING COMMITTED BY THOSE WITH PRIOR FELONY CONVICTIONS.
PROPOSED EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS INCLUDE CONCERTED COORDINATION WITH FEDERAL, LOCAL, AND STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PROSECUTORS IN IDENTIFYING AND DEVELOPING STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION. THAT COORDINATION INCLUDES MUNICIPAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES SHARING INTELLIGENCE REGARDING VIOLENT OFFENDERS, CRIME TRENDING ANALYSIS, COORDINATING CRIME REDUCTION EFFORTS, PROMOTING PUBLIC AND OFFICER SAFETY, IMPROVING POLICE COMMUNITY RELATIONS, ENCOURAGING NETWORKING AND COMMUNICATION BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND SWIFTER REFERRAL OF STATE CASES INVOLVING VIOLENT OFFENDERS FOR FEDERAL PROSECUTION.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
PROJECT SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS, WESTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI
UNDER THE COORDINATION AND LEADERSHIP OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY’S OFFICE (USAO) A PSN TASK FORCE RE-ESTABLISHED IN 2018 AND IS CURRENTLY ASSISTING IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF PSN GRANT 2018-GP-BX-0040, 2019-GP-BX-0062 AND 2020-GP-BX-0004. THE TASK FORCE COMBINES FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, FORMER AND RETIRED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS, AND LOCAL BUSINESSES AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS TO IMPLEMENT A COMPREHENSIVE HOLISTIC CRIME REDUCTION PROGRAM. THE OVERWHELMING RESPONSE FROM PARTNERS INVOLVED IN THIS TASK FORCE HAS BEEN VERY POSITIVE.
THE PROPOSED PROJECT PERIOD IS OCTOBER 1, 2021, THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2024, CONTINGENT ON FUNDING AVAILABILITY TO IMPLEMENT OUR ACTION PLAN. THROUGH INTELLIGENCE SHARING WITH THE JACKSON COUNTY PROSECUTOR’S OFFICE, KANSAS CITY MISSOURI POLICE DEPARTMENT (KCPD), AND OTHER STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCIES, THE PSN TASK FORCE HAS IDENTIFIED AREAS WITH THE HIGHEST VIOLENT CRIME RATES IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI TO BE TARGETED FOR A VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION STRATEGY. THE VIOLENT CRIMES IN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA ARE DRIVEN BY GANG OR GROUP RELATED NARCOTICS ACTIVITY INCLUDING RETALIATION DRIVEN CRIMES.
THE PSN TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA IS GENERALLY DEFINED BY GEOGRAPHIC STREET BOUNDARIES FROM ST. JOHN AVENUE (1ST STREET) TO 85TH STREET, AND TROOST AVENUE TO VAN BRUNT BOULEVARD EXTENDED. IN A 5-YEAR PERIOD OF TIME FROM JANUARY 2015 THROUGH DECEMBER 2019, 484 HOMICIDES HAVE OCCURRED IN THIS AREA. AN AVERAGE OF 97 HOMICIDES PER YEAR. ALSO, THIS IS 71% OF THE 678 HOMICIDES OCCURRING IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI DURING THAT TIME. THERE WAS AN AVERAGE OF 136 HOMICIDES PER YEAR. FURTHER, IN 2020 WE WERE A LITTLE OVER THE AVERAGE IN THE TA WITH 99 HOMICIDES VERSUS THE 5-YEAR AVERAGE OF 97. THIS WAS 63% OF THE RECORD YEAR OF 156 HOMICIDES IN KANSAS CITY. CONSEQUENTLY, WHILE THE PERCENTAGE OF HOMICIDES IN THE TARGET AREA WAS 8% LESS THAN THE 5-YEAR AVERAGE, THE SELECTED TARGET AREA REMAINS AN IMPORTANT AREA FOR COMMUNITY POLICING, NEIGHBORHOOD ACTION AND ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS.
WE PROPOSE BUILDING UPON PAST SUCCESSFUL EVIDENCE-BASED INTERVENTIONS TO SHARE INTELLIGENCE, STAY CURRENT ON IDENTIFYING SPECIFIC VIOLENT CRIME HOT SPOTS WITHIN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREAS TO PROVIDE COORDINATED POLICE RESPONSE TO THOSE AREAS, AND TO IDENTIFY PROLIFIC VIOLENT OFFENDERS DRIVING THE VIOLENCE. WE ARE ALSO PARTNERING WITH THE KANSAS CITY, MO. POLICE DEPARTMENT’S LAW ENFORCEMENT RESOURCE CENTER WHERE THE RECENTLY ESTABLISHED MIDWEST CRIME GUN INTELLIGENCE CENTER (CGIC) IS LOCATED AND A GANG INTELLIGENCE SQUAD TO ASSIST WITH IDENTIFYING THE VIOLENT ACTIVE TRIGGER PULLERS IN THE TARGET ENFORCEMENT AREA FOR INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION.
THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI’S PSN PROGRAM IS ALSO WORKING TO PARTNER WITH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND PREVENTION ASSETS TO REDUCE VIOLENT CRIME. THE PSN PROGRAM PLANS TO REINTRODUCE SEVERAL PROVEN PAST COMMUNITY AWARENESS STRATEGIES, AND ADD TO THEM A TARGETED SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN, TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE THAT THOSE COMMITTING VIOLENT ACTS IN OUR COMMUNITY WILL FACE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES.

PROJECT ABSTRACT
VIOLENT CRIMES HAVE BEEN STEADILY INCREASING IN DOVER, DELAWARE DESPITE ONGOING EFFORTS TO COMBAT VIOLENCE. 2021 IS SHOWING NO SIGNS OF RELIEF. THIS THREE (3) YEAR PROJECT, BEGINNING OCTOBER 1, 2021 – SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 WILL UTILIZE PSN FUNDS TO AUGMENT AND EXPAND EXISTING EFFORTS TARGETING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY IN THE CITY OF DOVER. WE PROPOSE TO TARGET HIGH CRIME AND VIOLENT AREAS OF THE CITY BY INCREASING DIRECTED PATROLS USING FUNDS FOR OVERTIME. THE DOVER PD WILL BE SUPPORTED IN THEIR EFFORTS WHEN NEEDED BY THE DELAWARE STATE POLICE. OUR COMMUNITY OUTREACH EFFORT WITH BE DRIVEN BY N-CALL WHO WILL HAVE TWO INDIVIDUALS OR “BOOTS ON THE GROUND” WORKING IN THE COMMUNITY TO IDENTIFY SOME OF THE REASONS FOR CERTAIN AREAS TO HAVE A HIGHER CRIME RATE THAN OTHERS, TO PROVIDE SOME INTERVENTION TO THE COMMUNITY AND TO IDENTIFY POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE INFLUENCERS. AS A RESULT, THIS WILL FOSTER BETTER POLICE/COMMUNITY RELATIONS TO HELP REDUCE VIOLENT AND GANG RELATED CRIME IN OUR TARGET AREAS THAT ARE WITHIN THE CITY OF DOVER.
PAST EFFORTS OF PSN IN DOVER AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS HAS BROUGHT TOGETHER LEADERSHIP TO INVESTIGATE A MEANS OF COORDINATING EFFORTS. THROUGH REAL TIME CRIME ANALYSIS AND COORDINATED EFFORTS OF THE RESEARCH PARTNER AT DELAWARE STATE UNIVERSITY, WE CAN KNOW WHERE AND WHEN CRIME HOT SPOTS OCCUR AND HOW THEY CORRELATE WITH SOCIAL INDICATORS. HOWEVER, BUDGETARY RESTRICTIONS MADE IT DIFFICULT TO TARGET POLICE EFFORTS ON HOT SPOTS ON AN ONGOING BASIS. ALTHOUGH ANALYSES WILL ALLOW A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF DOVER HOT SPOTS, THE QUESTION OF WHY CRIME IS CLUSTERING IN A FEW SPECIFIC AREAS REMAINS ELUSIVE. BY INCREASING POLICE EFFORTS THROUGH PSN FUNDING AND TARGETING THOSE EFFORTS AT THE DRIVERS OF CRIME THROUGH RISK TERRAIN MODELING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE DSU RESEARCH TEAM, WE HOPE TO DEMONSTRATE A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN OVERALL CRIME AND SPECIFICALLY FIREARMS VIOLENCE. THE GOAL OF PSN IS TO REDUCE GUN CRIME AND GANG VIOLENCE OUTCOMES. PSN’S SUCCESS WILL BE MEASURED BY A 10% REDUCTION IN GUN CRIME AND GANG VIOLENCE. WHILE FOCUSING 30% ON GANG RELATED ACTIVITIES AND VIOLENCE.

A POSITIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THE COMMUNITY ALLOWS POLICE TO EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY ADDRESS VARIOUS CRIMINAL MAATTERS, INCLUDING THE INVESTIGATION AND PROSECUTION OF VIOLENT CRIME. WHILE A JURISDICTION MAY BE ABLE TO DEVOTE VAST AMOUNTS OF RESOURCES TO INVESTIGATE A VIOLENT CRIME, DETECTIVES WILL BE UNABLE TO SOLVE A CASE WITHOUT COOPERATING WITNESSES AND PATROL OFFICERS CANNOT EFFECTIVELY PROTECT A NEIGHBORHOOD WITHOUT THE TRUST OF ITS CITIZENS. EVEN IN INSTANCES WHERE A INDIVIDUAL MAY WANT TO COOPERATE WITH POLICE, MANY IN THE COMMUNITY FEAR RETRIBUTION OR INTIMIDATION FROM GANGS AND OTHER CRIMINAL ELEMENTS. THE FEAR OF RETALIATION AND THE HESITATION TO COOPERATE WITH POLICE PRESENT A SIGNIFICANT OBSTACLE THAT MUST BE OVERCOME IF POLICE ARE TO BE EFFECTIVE IN REDUCING FIREARMS-RELATED OFFENSES IN COMMUNITIES THAT ARE AFFECTED BY GANG VIOLENCE.
THE CHICAGO POLICE DEPARTMENT (CPD) WILL USE PSN FUNDS TO DEVELOP AND BROADLY MARKET ITS STRATEGY OF MEANINGFUL COMMUNITY COLLABORATION IN CPD'S DESIGNATED PSN DISTRICTS (006, 007, 008, 009, 010, 011 AND 015) IN THE SOUTH AND WEST SIDES THAT ARE PARTICULARLY IMPACTED BY GANG AND GUN VIOLENCE. CPD WILL DIRECT ITS MESSAGING TO THE COMMUNITIES AND ORGANIZATIONS IN THESE POLICE DISTRICTS. THE STRATEGY WILL INCLUDE MESSAGING THAT EMPHASIZE THE IMPORTANCE FOR JUVENILES, THEIR PARENTS AND ELDERS, FAITH- AND COMMUNITY-BASED LEADERS, THE BUSINESS SECTOR AND OTHERS TO FEEL CONFIDENT THAT THEY CAN TRUST AND COOPERATE WITH CPD AND WILL BE SAFE WHILE DOING SO. BECAUSE PSN REQUIRES 30% OF THE AWARD TO DIRECTLY SUPPORT THE ACTIVITIES OF GANG TASK FORCES, CPD WILL USE A PORTION OF FY2021 PSN FUNDS TO PURCHASE CRITICAL EQUIPMENT FOR GANG TEAMS TO SUPPORT INVESTIGATIVE EFFORTS IN THE PSN DISTRICTS.
CPD ANTICIPATES THAT ENRICHED COMMUNITY COLLABORATION AND INVESTIGATIVE RESOURCES WILL LEAD TO A TANGIBLE AND MEASURABLE REDUCTION IN GANG ACTIVITY AND VIOLENT CRIME NOT ONLY IN THE PSN DISTRICTS BUT ALSO IN OTHER DISTRICTS THAT HAVE BEEN IMPACTED BY GANG-RELATED VIOLENT CRIME.

CITY OF SYRACUSE
THE SYRACUSE POLICE DEPARTMENT PROPOSED TO SUPPORT THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK'S EFFORTS TO ADDRESS GUN AND GANG VIOLENCE IN SYRACUSE. PREVIOUS AND CURRENT EFFORTS TO ADDRESS GUN VIOLENCE IN SYRACUSE HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL FORMS AND HAVE INVOLVED MANY AGENCIES. EACH GANG AND GUN VIOLENCE INITIATIVE BROUGHT INTO THE CITY IS LAUNCHED AS AN EXTENSION OF THE INITIAL PROGRAM, TRUCE, AND RELIES, WHERE APPLICABLE, ON PROGRAMMATIC COMPONENTS PREVIOUSLY ESTABLISHED AND IS FOLDED INTO A SINGLE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE. AS CURRENTLY CONSTITUTED, SYRACUSE'S GANG AND GUN REDUCTION EFFORTS OVERSEEN BY THE PSN STRATEGY COMMITTEE INCLUDE TRINITY, JUVENILE CORE, ADULT CORE, AND THE PLANNED INTRODUCTION OF SCHOOL-LED SERVICES TO AT-RISK YOUTH. IN ITS REVIEW OF INITIATIVES AND GAPS, THE STRATEGY COMMITTEE IDENTIFIED THE NEED FOR MORE SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT FOR ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITIES. TO THAT END, THE STRATEGY COMMITTEE DECIDED TO DIRECT FY 2020 FUNDS TOWARD THE GANG VIOLENCE TASKFORCE AND ITS WORK TO REDUCE GUN AND GANG VIOLENCE.
THE SYRACUSE GANG VIOLENCE TASK FORCE IS A COLLABORATION OF LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AGGRESSIVELY TARGETING VIOLENT GANGS AND THEIR MEMBERS. THE GVTF UTILIZES LONG AND SHORT-TERM INVESTIGATIONS, WHICH ARE THEN PREPARED AND PRESENTED TO THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURT SYSTEMS FOR PROSECUTION. THE GVTF WAS FORMED IN JANUARY 2003 IN RESPONSE TO A RAPIDLY INCREASING LEVEL OF GANG VIOLENCE WITHIN SYRACUSE. MEMBERS OF THE SYRACUSE POLICE DEPARTMENT MET WITH THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE TO EXPLORE OPTIONS WITHIN THE FEDERAL LEGAL SYSTEM TO ASSIST IN DEALING WITH VIOLENCE. THE RESULT WAS THE FORMATION OF THE GVTF. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, SOME CORE PARTNERS HAVE REMAINED AT THE TABLE WHILE OTHERS' COMMITMENT HAS SHIFTED, MAINLY DRIVEN BY RESPECTIVE AGENCY BUDGETS. THE CURRENT COMPOSITION OF THE GVTF INCLUDES THE SYRACUSE POLICE DEPARTMENT, THE NEW YORK STATE POLICE, THE ONONDAGA COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE, THE NEW YORK STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE, THE UNITED STATES MARSHAL'S SERVICE, THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATIONS, THE NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS (PAROLE), THE BUREAU OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, FIREARMS AND EXPLOSIVES, THE DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION, AND THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, THE GVTF HAS BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLETING MANY LONG-TERM GANG INVESTIGATIONS RESULTING IN NUMEROUS ARRESTS. IN ADDITION TO THE DESCRIBED LONG-TERM INVESTIGATIONS, THE GVTF IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MULTIPLE PROACTIVE STREET GUN VIOLENCE SUPPRESSION DETAILS. THESE DETAILS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, PROACTIVE STREET SUPPRESSION DETAILS IN GANG HOT SPOTS, PAROLE/PROBATION HOME VISITS AND PAROLE GPS DETAILS ON GANG MEMBERS, TRAFFIC ROAD CHECKPOINTS IN GANG HOT SPOTS, AND PAROLE/ALCOHOL BEVERAGE CONTROL CHECKS ON ALCOHOL ESTABLISHMENTS WITH SURGES IN GUN VIOLENCE. SO THAT WE CAN BETTER SUPPORT THE GVTF AND ITS ESSENTIAL WORK, WE WILL DIRECT PSN FUNDS TOWARD SUPPORT EQUIPMENT AND SOFTWARE FOR BODY CAMERAS.
