In the early 1990s, U.S. crime rates had been on a steep upward climb since the Lyndon B. ... Did they see similar declines when they liberalized their abortion laws?
Explanation:
Then crime rates went down. And then they kept going down.
By decade’s end, the homicide rate plunged 42 percent nationwide. Violent crime decreased by one-third. What turned into a precipitous decline started later in some areas and took longer in others. But it happened everywhere: in each region of the country, in cities large and small, in rural and urban areas alike. In the Northeast, which reaped the largest benefits, the homicide rate was halved. Murders plummeted by 75 percent in New York City alone as the city entered the new millennium.
The trend kept ticking downward from there, more slowly and with some fluctuations, to the present day. By virtually any metric, Americans now live in one of the least violent times in the nation’s history.

Answer:
Parole officers are responsible for monitoring the activities of parolees; offenders recently released from prison. Traditionally, only those offenders who acknowledged responsibility for their past criminal behavior and demonstrated an ability to reenter society without re-offending earned the privilege of parole. More recently, however, several state and federal courts have ruled that prison overcrowding constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. In an effort to reduce their populations, several states have begun releasing offenders on parole, often years before their sentence is completed. This practice has not been well received by members of various parole boards who believe the practice of paroling offenders to reduce overcrowding robs the board of the opportunity to evaluate whether an offender is likely to comply with the conditions of his or her parole and avoid re-offending.
