After Seattle Defunded Its Police, Local Business Owners Say Crime Is Worse Than Ever
2023-01-19
  • [DAILYCALLER] Two years after Seattle slashed its police budget, local business owners say crime has skyrocketed, with police unable to deal with thefts, homelessness and open-air drug use that plague the city.

  • Elliot Bay Community Fitness owner Rohan Joseph consistently posts videos of drug-intoxicated people causing disturbances in his area, with other local business owners reporting break-ins and theft at their establishments.

  • “I support my police, I support my firefighters, I support a lot of local charities, but it’s almost getting impossible to survive these days with a small business,” 206 Burger Company owner Suren Shrestha said.
