Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute has testified before a Congressional committee that in 2004, 95% of all outstanding warrants for murder in Los Angeles were for illegal aliens; in 2000, 23% of all Los Angeles County jail inmates were illegal aliens and that in 1995, 60% of Los Angeles’s largest street gang, the 18th Street gang, were illegal aliens.

City
Council Resolution Formally Declares Los Angeles a ‘Sanctuary City’
2:03
The Los Angeles City Council formally approved a resolution Friday
declaring the City of Angels a “sanctuary city” for illegal aliens.
The council unanimously passed the resolution in a 12-0 vote,
formally declaring Los Angeles “a city of sanctuary” for those residing in the
U.S. illegally “who have been under attack in this Trump era,” CBS Los
Angeles reported.
“We declare, for all those who have been under attack in this
Trump era, that this city, in this day, in this time, will be a city of
sanctuary,” City Councilman Gil Cedillo said. “It will be a place where people
will know that they will be judged by the content of their character and not by
the color of
their skin, and not by who they choose to love, and not by when they got here.
They will be judged by their contributions to our city.”
The council’s non-binding resolution was more of a symbolic
gesture, as it does not change the city’s laws.
But the resolution did allow the city to create a commission tasked with
investigating civil rights violations and imposing a $125,000 to $250,000 fine
on those who commit acts of violence or harassment.
Friday’s resolution made Los Angeles’s sanctuary city status
official, but the Los Angeles Police Department has had longstanding sanctuary
policies on the books.
Officers have been told not to arrest individuals just because
they entered the U.S. illegally and bar federal immigration authorities from
access to county jails without a federal warrant.
In 2017, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti also promoted the
city’s sanctuary policies prohibiting federal immigration officials from
enforcing federal laws on illegal immigration at the local level.
When President Trump announced that year that the federal
government would withhold federal funding from cities that did not enforce
federal laws on illegal immigration, Garcetti defended Los Angeles’s
position as a sanctuary city.
L.A. Hits 300 Homicides After
Mayor Eric Garcetti Defunds
Police by $150 Million
LOS ANGELES, California — Los Angeles officially recorded 300 homicides as of Sunday, reaching a mark not seen since 2009, after Mayor Eric Garcetti’s decision to defund the police by $150 million, including cuts to the homicide division.
A number we have not seen in over a decade—300 homicides in a year. Senseless violence & tragic loss of life.
Our people are doing everything they can to stop the violence, but we need your help. If you have any info, report it. You can remain anonymous.https://t.co/Ti3qvwDM7Y https://t.co/xy0LBVsj56

The Los Angeles Times reported Monday:
Killings are up 25% over last year and shootings are up more than 32%, mirroring increases in violence that are driving concerns in big cities across the nation. Last week, a pregnant woman was gunned down. Children and elderly residents have been killed. Of all the year’s victims, nearly 20% have been homeless. Gangs are suspected in many cases.
…
The roughly $3-billion police budget was cut this year by $150 million in the wake of widespread protests against police brutality and misconduct, and Moore said he is scrambling to put more officers on the street — particularly in South L.A., where much of the recent violence has been — as he is slashing specialized units and reducing overtime by half.
“These cuts couldn’t come at a worse time,” Moore said. “My ability to put added resources [in the community] right now is hampered.”
As Breitbart News reported in June, Garcetti announced the cuts to the police department in the midst of ongoing Black Lives Matter riots. The funds were ostensibly meant to be redistributed to “communities of color” in the city.
Moreover, as Breitbart News reported earlier this month, the homicide division has been targeted by cuts. The department’s sexual assault unit was shut down entirely due to the cuts, along with other specialized divisions, such as animal cruelty.
