I referenced only the charge rate. That is, of people who are arrested for certain crimes, how many did Boudin and his team choose to prosecute. This does not include the absolute number of crimes committed. For reference, charge rate for certain crimes like rape went up. He specifically mentioned rape and other crime to media and said he would prosecute these kinds of crimes more, even if the chance of conviction was low. So it wasn't due to a lack of resources. Boudin simply choose to charge certain crimes less, and others more.
