Monsour: Municipal judges need to get tougher on crime

Municipal judges need to start getting tougher with misdemeanor offenses, particularly discharging firearms in the city, and making offenders an example for others who might consider committing crimes in the city, South Ward Alderman Alex Monsour said.

Crime, he said, is one of the obstacles preventing the city’s economic development efforts.
