Original Note:
Misleading. MOPAC statistics ignore unreported offenses & vary wildly with reporting/recording practices per borough. These statistics don't mean criminals are being taken off the street as they do not include arrests/convictions, only that the crime was reported. https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/crimeandjustice/methodologies/userguidetocrimestatisticsforenglandandwales
