Murder rates have soared in every city that anti-American billionaire George Sorros spent millions to back woke district attorneys who have refused to prosecute criminals.
Murder rates have climbed an average of 10 percent in 50 of America’s most populated cities where leftist Democrat DA’s have taken office thanks to George Soros money.
The news comes from financial service website WalletHub which released its latest crime survey last week.
The service reviewed the data from 50 cities and ranked the worst ten with the highest homicide cases per 100,000 residents from July through September:
- St. Louis, Mo. (19.69)
- Kansas City, Mo. (14.86)
- Detroit, Mich. (13.24)
- Baltimore, Md. (12.45)
- New Orleans, La. (10.99)
- Milwaukee, Wisc. (10.46)
- Memphis, Tenn. (9.99)
- Philadelphia, Pa. (9.36)
- Norfolk, Va. (7.78)
- Chicago, Ill. (7.71)
As Just the News noted:
The top prosecutors in most of these cities are backed by progressive megadonor George Soros, a billionaire who’s spent the last several years injecting tens of millions of dollars into local district attorney races nationwide, backing candidates who support policies such as abolishing bail, defunding the police, and decriminalizing or deprioritizing certain offenses.
In St. Louis, for example, Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner is one of the first prosecutors bankrolled by Soros’ financial network of organizations and affiliates, heavily funded by these sources in 2016 and again in 2020.
Amid high homicide figures, Gardner has declined more cases and issued fewer arrest warrants than her predecessor, charging fewer felonies and prosecuting thousands of fewer cases as a result. She has also deferred prison sentences for misdemeanors and nonviolent felonies as part of her reform initiatives.
Gardner has said this is part of her “platform to reduce the number of cases unnecessarily charged in order to focus on the more difficult cases for trial.”
Just the News also reported on several other cities in the top ten being destroyed by Soros-backed, weak on crime DAs.

George Soros is literally killing Americans by the thousands.
