2024 DE Governor's race: on Crime


Matt Meyer: Address social, economic circumstances that can drive crime

In 2012, 16-year-old Alexander Kamara Jr. was killed in a shooting at Eden Park while he was playing in a soccer tournament. "I remember reading about it in the newspaper and thinking, 'I was trying to teach Iraqis how to do it right and this is how we're doing it here,'" he said, noting he began seeing more stories of such senseless violence and he wanted to try to make a difference in the social and economic circumstances that often drive crime.
