ANCHORAGE, Alaska - U.S. Attorney General Robert Barr on Wednesday promised Alaska Native leaders he would work to strengthen law enforcement in the state’s rural areas hit by alarmingly high rates of violent crime.
The meeting was held on the day U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller appeared before reporters in Washington at the Department of Justice, which Barr oversees, to discuss his investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election. Barr’s trip fulfilled a promise given months ago to Alaska’s two U.S. senators, who had pressed the attorney general to visit the northernmost U.S. state and its crime-plagued rural areas.
