As Trump and his allies continue to attack Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, they have made false claims about the crime situation in New York City. Here's a look at what Manhattan crime numbers actually do -- and do not -- show.
But Trump and other Republicans, including committee Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio and former Vice President Mike Pence, have made false claims about the crime situation in Manhattan and New York City.

32 million in 1990. Fact: Most categories of major crime in Manhattan, though not all, are down so far in 2023 Bragg’s office has responded to crime-related attacks by saying that Manhattan crime is down this year in many key categories, such as murder, shooting incidents, rape, robbery and burglary. This is accurate – and the 2023 decreases are significant, though it’s important to emphasize that it’s still early in the year and it’s unclear how much Bragg has to do with the improvements.

Trump’s House GOP allies take fight to Manhattan DA's turfRepublicans upset with Donald Trump’s indictment are escalating their war on the prosecutor who charged him, trying to embarrass him on his home turf. The House Judiciary Committee is holding a field hearing Monday near the offices of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. The committee’s Republican majority is billing it as an examination of the Democrat’s “pro-crime, anti-victim” policies. Democrats say the hearing is a partisan stunt aimed at amplifying conservative anger at Bragg, Manhattan’s first Black district attorney. The hearing is the latest effort by Republican U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan’s to use his congressional powers to defend Trump from what he says is a politically motivated prosecution. Trump is charged in Manhattan with falsifying business records.
