-- prosecutor, kim fox, is working with police officers and so you have that kind of a scism. in some way or other they have to come together for the citizens of chicago. arthel: how do you curb crime with guns at the hands of juveniles? >> it's very, very difficult. what you have to do with juveniles and adults in these various communities is you have to put more police officers out there, not less police officers, but more. they need more police officers in these major metropolitan cities to flood these zones and get these criminals out of there, even the juveniles. arthel: ted williams with such great advice, as usual. thank you, ted. take care. >> my pleasure. arthel: eric. eric: governor andrew cuomo is laying low this weekend after explosive allegations in the report from the state's attorney general. he was photographed walking his dog you alone. now his lawyer is branding one of his sexual harassment accuser as as liar, this as he could face charging from albany prosecutors and the woman who said he groped her under her blouse in the governor's mansion has gone public.

and i don't want to go to, we can't forget these neighborhoods, we have to help these people but kim fox to do her job, we have to put the bad guys away and stop putting this on the police. for some reason every time we turn around, we need an oversight board to look at the police and what is going on, we need to look at community and ask questions about how to stop. if i'm not mistaken out of the shootings in chicago 6 or 7 of them this weekend, kids were under 16 years old, we can't let this happen. it comes down to letting bad guys know they can't do this anymore and we will be doing the same thing, talking about the same thing every monday and tuesday. jillian: let's look at numbers from the weekend violence in chicago, 52 people were shot, 9 people were killed, if you look at crimes against children in 2021 you will see 250 children have been shot so far this year, 30 to kill. here's what mayor lightfoot has to say on this, quote, we must unite against our common enemy, the gangs who have no regard for the sanctity of life. even that of young children. we must declare war on these c

kim fox, the d.a. there, just dismissed 25,000 cases that include murders, robberies.eally makes it worse is the anti-police sentiment coming from the mayor's office. mayor lightfoot starts telling people, hey, we're not going to have large tributes because of covid restrictions, meanwhile, they just had lollapalooza with 400,000 people attending, meanwhile we can't have tributes to memorialize our fallen officers. guess what? people don't want to come forward when they know the person that just shot somebody in the face is going to be out in two hours. we have to stop this madness before we get our communities back. elizabeth: we hear you. stop going weak on crime, prosecutors in chicago. look what the chicago tribune is also reporting, joe, and now this is a murder investigation in chicago by wbec radio. less than half of murder cases, less than half are solved in chicago? when victim was white? for hissen panics the rate was only about 33%, but look at this, when the victim was black, it was less than 22%. that means the killer of a black victim has more of a chance
