"News that more than half of people arrested in D.C. are never tried
for the crimes is outraging people who live in, work in and visit the
city, but the U.S. attorney says that number does not tell the full
story.
According to the U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of Columbia,
67% of arrests were not prosecuted in 2022, up from 31% in 2016.
U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves noted that percentage is an aggregate of
all the crimes his office prosecutes. He said its a reflection of the
newer difficulties his office encounters with arrests involving gun
possession, low-level drug offenses and misdemeanors.
Graves pointed to new and changing D.C. probable cause laws.
He also said well-documented problems with the D.C. Department of
Forensic Sciences and the need to use outside labs is making the
prosecution of gun and drug cases especially challenging.
"Since DFS lost its accreditation two years ago, the District has not
had a way to test suspected drugs," the U.S. Attorney's Office said in
a statement to News4 Thursday. "This has greatly reduced our ability
to charge felony and misdemeanor drug cases. While the DEA agreed to
do testing for our most serious drug cases, the DEA does not have the
bandwidth for the volume of arrests." "
