Crime statistics for 2024 were released last week – Mayor Eric Adams applauded drops in crime citywide — but that's not necessarily the case in the Bronx.
Bronx Council Member Althea Stevens discusses the rise in almost all major crimes in the Bronx and how to make New Yorkers safer.
Also, Bronx State Sen. Nathalia Fernandez talks about the coalition of lawmakers calling for accountability in the death of Robert Brooks – an inmate in an upstate prison who was beaten while handcuffed by correctional officers. He died the next day.
