Calling all victims

    As we mentioned earlier, Philadelphia court officials have dropped charges against nearly 20,000 fugitives whose cases are at least 12 years old.

    I’m following up on this story today with a focus on what victims think.  If you were the victim of an unsolved crime we’d like to hear from you.  Do you see this as a miscarriage of justice?  Or is this a clerical move to clear cases that wouldn’t have gone to trial anyway?  Tell us what you think.  Use the “Feed the Feed” box to the right.  And please leave contact information so that I can follow up by phone.
