Border czar Tom Homan is set to visit Boston, which Mayor Michelle Wu and Police Commissioner Michael Cox have deemed the “safest major city in the country.” However, recent crime statistics in the downtown shopping district tell a different story. A 7-year high in crime, including assaults, robberies, stabbings, and drug dealing have plagued the area, with recent incidents like the assault and robbery of a man in Macy’s by two teens.
While Cox and Wu tout the city’s safety, Homan has expressed concerns over their refusal to enforce civil detainers from ICE and their prioritization of politics over public safety. Cox’s stance has caught Homan’s attention at a recent conference, with the border czar vowing to bring “hell” with him to Boston.
Despite Cox and Wu’s claims of safety, the escalating crime rates and contentious stance on federal immigration enforcement have raised questions about their priorities. As Homan prepares to visit the city, the true state of public safety in Boston remains under scrutiny.
