Boston Metro reports on Yesterday’s PERF Town Hall meeting
“Yesterday, (Acting Boston Police Commissioner) Goslin joined local law enforcement officials from across the country — including William Bratton, a Hub native who led both the Boston and MBTA police, and now commands the LAPD — here to discuss the rise in violent crime throughout the county. The meeting coincided with the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) releasing a report that, among other things, notes that FBI statistics show the largest single-year percent increase in violent crime nationwide in 14 years.”
