The Cleveland Plain-Dealer: on Crime


Dennis Kucinich: Reclaim streets from violent gangs; add specialized staff

Kucinich said he'll make crime a top priority. Special units, such as those that investigate homicide and gangs, would be staffed up. "We will work to rescue neighborhoods that are besieged by criminal elements," Kucinich said. "We will reclaim our streets from the violent gangs." One hundred specialized staff would be added to deal with calls, such as for mental health crises, that don't require an armed response.
