By the summer of 2019, a war is waging between Larry Krasner and the Philadelphia police. When Larry supports legal injection clinics to clean up the streets in the poorest parts of Philadelphia, local cops routinely blame Krasner for a spike in crime, but the numbers do not support it. \n\nCouncil member Maria Quiñones-Sanchez, Krasner’s political mentor, calls a town hall meeting. Publicly frustrated, Krasner calls the cops liars and walks out. But when the council member considers pulling her support, Krasner rethinks his approach.
