Episode 18 – Misplacing the Blame for Crime…Again


Its crimes and Mr. Weiner this week on The Middle. See what we did there?  In a special episode of the show, Anthony takes a long look at the recent rise in crime in New York – and everywhere else – and wonders about the blame game underway.  Politicians predictably see scapegoats in other politicians, while criminologists ponder the evidence. The police seem beleaguered and advocates for reform are feeling stymied. These are tough issues, so Anthony got help this week from Professor Eugene O’Donnell of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice and civil rights attorney and former candidate for Attorney General, Charlie King. Also this week : Jordan returns from camp; the Secret Service loses its, uh, stuff; and, there are lots of remakes of “I Fought the Law”.
