"New York City is on track to have fewer than 500 homicides this year ... this gives more credence to a suspicion I've had ... that the current low murder rates in this country ... probably make the whole concept of the TV police procedural unrealistic."
Good news (but the image usually tended to be worse than the reality, which leads to some unfortunate social policy implications) and right as to cop shows. Those addresses on
Law & Order tend to be fake too. And, the reasons are complex ... though Mayor Rudy will want you to think it's all him. (Hint: Crime dropped nation-wide).
