In a recent exposé by the British Home Office, over the previous year, British police officers dropped nearly one investigation every 13 seconds without finding the offender. This corresponds to a staggering 6,500 complaints being ignored every day. This alarming figure emerges amidst the considerable financial contributions made by British taxpayers to boost public security, with billions of pounds allocated annually to police departments. Despite an increase in police personnel from 129,000 to approximately 150,000 within the past year, recruitment efforts have fallen short of countering the surging social crimes. Last year, over 80% of offenses, including domestic burglaries, remained unsolved, while approximately 33,000 cases of rape and sexual assault were left in abeyance. Furthermore, as reported by the Daily Mail, an additional 2,300,000 cases were closed without identifying the offenders.
