This is likely akin to something that has almost certainly helped with the D.C. crime situation once Trump intervened.

Back to the mid-1990s and I'm sure earlier, it was a place a class of criminals commuted to from Maryland and Virginia because the chances of getting caught were much lower, and the punishment was also much lower if caught, including no likely death penalty (still could be done by the Feds, but that was in a practical moratorium for a long time. country wide until the end of Trump 1.0).
