Barr: No end to violent crime under 'revolving door' criminal justice
Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr warns crime will continue to increase until leaders are serious about stopping criminals.
Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr warned there will be no end to violent crime under the current "revolving door" criminal justice policies. On "Outnumbered," Monday, Barr said violent crime has been on the rise since former President Obama took office and explained that tough policies will be required to stop the upward trend.
BILL BARR: This is the epitome of the problem we have, which is revolving door justice. We've been here before. Crime reached its peak in 1991, and it took tough policy, stopping the revolving door, taking the small number of violent predators that are out there and locking them up and make sure they serve their sentence.

For 14 years, we had lowering crime cut in half. In 2014, under Obama, it started going back up again. States have gone back to revolving door justice, and there's no end in sight. This violence will continue to increase until we get serious about fighting crime.
