The Crime Fighter: Putting the Bad Guys Out of Business
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Doubleday Books
- Publish date: 10/12/1999
Maple knew from his twenty years on the force that stopping crime was not the priority of the police -- unbelievable, but true. He was determined to revolutionize how crime is fought -- how cops go after crooks, and how they prevent crime from happening in the first place. And he did. Within two years, the seemingly explosive crime rate was going down -- fast: murders down 50 percent, crime overall by 39 percent. And by 1998, the number of murders in New York City was lower than in 1964!
"The Crime Fighter" tells the reader how crime can and should be attacked. Laced with fascinating, incredible, and often humorous tales of Maple's adventures as a cop, the book is as entertaining as it is informative. Anyone interested in how criminals think and act, and how the police should do their jobs, will devour "The CrimeFighter".
