US Attorney Pirro(@USAttyPirro):When you have consequences for crime, the numbers go down dramatically—as we are seeing in the District with historic drops in homicides and carjackings. To keep driving these numbers down, D.C. must lower the age of accountability. We need to hold juvenile offenders accountable early—saving them from a future of serious crime and even longer prison sentences.
