Cerelyn J. Davis

But our U.S. attorney for the Western District of Tennessee, Mike Dunovit, who is prosecuting a lot of these cases, was there.

The police chief of Memphis, C.J. Davis, was there.

She and I actually talked before the event, and we're talking about how the police recruitment numbers are actually up at the police academy, mainly because...

Now law enforcement can do what law enforcement is supposed to do, and they feel good about their ability to be able to do their job, catch bad guys, and put them in jail.

I get it hurts your feelings.

But when you look at the numbers, when you look at CJ Davis, the Memphis Police Department, and Bill Gibbons, the Memphis Crime Commission, even former Mayor A C Wharton, he has an op-ed going on right now saying that crime is down Crime is down noticeably.

He used to hear gunshots every night, and now things are getting a lot better.

That is objectively good.

I got a couple of helpful texts here.

Uh, first one comes from Texter 2600.

He writes, "Since the Memphis Safe Task Force has been in place, CJ Davis's service weapon hasn't been stolen." That's true.

That's true.

You know, we can't do any victory laps, but crime's going down.

Memphis Police Chief C.J. Davis says crime's going down.

All the folks from the Crime Commission, including the president of the Shelby County Crime Commission, Bill Gibbons, says that crime is trending down.

The president of the United States, the guy who signed the Memorandum of Understanding to establish the Memphis Safe Task Force, says that crime is down.

But there are still people, people, the Memphis City Council, who want to ask the Memphis Safe Task Force to leave.

Even after a year where you've seen all these decreases in crime, they'll make the arguments that crime was going down.

All right, well then, appeal to C.J. Davis.

And say, hey, you guys had crime under control, right? It was already going down.
