Carjackings in Chicago have tripled

Chicago’s growing #carjacking problem is a microcosm of what’s gone wrong in the city. Carjackings are more frequent, they are more weaponized, and there are fewer consequences than at almost any time in recent history. A #Wirepoints analysis of city data shows that if 2022 year-to-date trends continue, #Chicago carjackings will reach a new high this year, at least since 2001.
It’s clear: the City of Chicago’s political leadership does not have the will, the capability, or the competence to tamp down on this insidious crime. Without a major course correction, it spells even deeper trouble for the city.
At its current run-rate, Chicago will hit 1,960 carjackings in 2022 – the highest since at least 2001.* That’s up from a previous high of 1,848 carjackings in 2021 and more than triple the pre-Covid, pre-George Floyd 2019 baseline of 603 carjackings.
It’s not only that we’re on pace for a new record. Some 76 percent of Chicago carjackings this year so far have been classified as “aggravated,” another record. Aggravated usually indicates the use of a #weapon during a hijacking.
And while carjacking #arrest rates have averaged 10 percent from 2010 through 2021, so far this year they are at a near-record low of 6 percent.
The data on Chicago carjacking through the years, and especially through the first half of 2022, serves as an unfortunate example of what happens when a city becomes “open” for crime, with no real deterrence or consequences in most instances.
It all points to the failure of #CookCounty courts and Chicago City Hall to meaningfully curtail violent disorder here.
