Show Notes
Ohio Attorney Generals Office and U.S. Attorneys Office for southern Ohio form a new partnership to bolster prosecutions of violent crimes, particularly gun offenses in Cincinnati. A full-time special assistant U.S. attorney, funded by the state, will join the Cincinnati office, offering harsher federal sentences. This collaboration builds on existing efforts, with recent indictments for illegal firearms possession and charges in separate shooting cases. Despite progress, a survey shows only 32% of residents feel safe citywide and 50% in their neighborhoods. Violent and property crimes are down, but shooting victims have increased, with 14 deaths. Federal prosecutors emphasize shared responsibility to combat gun violence.
