That reminds me, I was watching the local news the other night and the County Sheriff was being interviewed. He seemed quite uneasy. They foresee a huge increase in crime and they are trying to prepare for it. Gas drive offs, grocery thefts, and - one I didn't think about - a big increase in break-ins.
This is a big seasonal tourist area with many wealthy and celebrity summer homes. His major concern was that there are so many drive offs now that they are taking a lot of time away from his officers for other crimes, which are also on the rise. He gave the distinct impression his frustration level was increasing.
Law enforcement officials are the ones in a position to see signs of impending trouble.
