Philadelphia police union president calls out DA: Criminals know 'not a damn thing' will happen to them
A Philadelphia police union leader is pointing the finger at District Attorney Larry Krasner and city officials for soft-on-crime policies and failing to support law enforcement after three city SWAT officers were shot serving a homicide warrant. "It's our liberal progressive, so-called D.A.," Philadelphia Fraternal Order of Police president John McNesby said. "He does more work to let people out of jail than he does to keep them in." "[Criminals] know that they can wreak havoc and do whatever they want and there's not a damn thing that's going to happen to them." On "America Reports" Wednesday, McNesby said that on top of Krasner's policies, law enforcement has been stripped of the manpower and resources needed to defend the city. Three SWAT officers were reportedly shot Wednesday morning while serving an arrest warrant in North Philadelphia, local media reported.
