NEW EPISODE: Weaponizing Crime Data: Jeff Asher on Facts vs. Fear
Crime is going down in cities across America, but you wouldn’t know it from the headlines. Social media, misinformation, and hyper-partisanship have turned crime data into a political weapon, and communities are paying the price.
We sat down with crime analyst Jeff Asher, co-founder of AH Datalytics and host of The Jeff-alytics Podcast, to talk about how crime data gets misused by politicians, the media, police departments, and even real estate websites, and why getting the data right matters for public safety.

The FBI’s move from UCR to NIBRS changed how crime is counted in America—and left gaps in the data. So can we still compare one year to the next? Crime analyst Jeff Asher (Crime Index) explains how to read the numbers the right way.
