Republican Bob Stefanowski on Monday amped up his insistence that police are under siege and the state’s low crime rate is a mirage, a line of attack Gov. Ned Lamont called inaccurate and inflammatory.
“Crime is out of control in Connecticut. We all know it,” Stefanowski said at a press conference publicizing his endorsement by police unions in Hartford, Bridgeport, Stamford and other cities. It was his third crime-related press conference in a week.
