AG Barr: ‘Operation Legend Is Working. Crime Is Down, and Order Is Being Restored’


william barr worthy christian news(Worthy News) – The Justice Department’s Operation Legend, launched two months ago in Kansas City, is reducing what Attorney General William Barr called “the explosion of crime” in nine major cities where federal agents are assisting local law enforcement.

Barr said Operation Legend has dispatched more than one thousand skilled federal agents to Chicago and eight other cities to fight violent crime. Those agents have now made 2,500 arrests, and of those arrested, prosecutors have brought federal criminal charges against 600 defendants.

“Bringing federal charges is significant because defendants arrested for violent crimes are often detained before trial, unlike state defendants who are too often released.” Barr also noted that federal defendants face serious sentences if convicted, with the real possibility of long-term imprisonment in out of state facilities.
