NC Cities Weigh Curfews; Crime Declines; Feds Counter Comey
North Carolina cities are reconsidering youth curfews following a summer marked by several large teen takeovers and concerns about public safety, with Andrew Pomeranz of Carolina Journal examining how local officials are responding. Meanwhile, a new report finds crime is generally declining in Raleigh and Charlotte, reflecting a broader drop in crime nationwide. Mitch Kokai of the John Locke Foundation joins the program to discuss more than 100 pages of new federal court filings pushing back against former FBI Director James Comey’s arguments in his North Carolina case. Plus, AmeriCorps has awarded $13.2 million to support volunteer and service programs across North Carolina.
