He left office in January of 2007, not November. So even though arrests were still very high, you could truly say that arrests decreased his last year as mayor. That's not the same as arrests fell every year he was Mayor.

Instead of showing some integrity and admitting your mistake you accuse me for being dishonest on the grounds that "So, O'Malley gets criticism for something that happened 7-1/2 years after he was in office, but can get no credit for changes made while he was in office?" Of course, I never criticized O'Malley for something that happened 71/2 years after he was in office; so you are failing to get your facts straight again.

Enough with the misinformation. Vattel May 2015 #17

If arrests peaked in 2005, then they were obviously decreasing for two years while O'Malley was FSogol May 2015 #18
