From the related editorial:
Homicides have spread much doom and gloom in Milwaukee, prompting angst among community groups and sending the Common Council into a frenzy. Yet a city committee studying the problem is calmly radiating optimism.
And with cause: The wild homicide beast can be tamed. And the Milwaukee Homicide Review Commission is going about the task of developing sensible strategies for doing that. What's more, early signs are the strategies are already paying off. This worthwhile effort deserves encouragement.
