“My take on what’s going on in Northern California is that it’s relatively uneven,” said Franklin Zimring, a UC Berkeley law professor and criminologist. “You have Oakland way up, and you have Richmond, which is every bit as crime-impacted, substantially down with respect to life-threatening violence. So whatever is going on is much more uneven than a single arrow pointed in a single direction.”
