Menino Preemptively Addresses Summer Violence
Cutting right to the point: Last summer was bloody (27 murders of Boston’s 63 murders in 2011 occurred between June and August). This summer, Menino says, will be different. “The mayor will unveil a very targeted strategy for summer,’’ Dot Joyce, Menino’s spokeswoman, told the Globe, saying that the strategy will “… aggressively focus on specific areas of our city and specific individuals who perpetrate the majority of the crime.” [Boston.com]
