Note to self: Move to Wasilla. The crime rate there is evidently subzero.

(OTOH... maybe not such a good idea if the police are that desperate to come up with something, anything...)

Doesn't look like it...quite the opposite...

Crime in Wasilla (2001):
1 murder (18.1 per 100,000)
2 rapes (36.1 per 100,000)
6 robberies (108.3 per 100,000)
71 assaults (1282.1 per 100,000)
47 burglaries (848.7 per 100,000)
411 thefts (7421.5 per 100,000)
29 auto thefts (523.7 per 100,000)
City-data.com crime index = 728.7 (higher means more crime, US average = 330.8)

Crime in Wasilla (2002):
0 murders (0.0 per 100,000)
2 rapes (35.6 per 100,000)
7 robberies (124.6 per 100,000)
74 assaults (1317.7 per 100,000)
98 burglaries (1745.0 per 100,000)
443 thefts (7888.2 per 100,000)
33 auto thefts (587.6 per 100,000)
City-data.com crime index = 821.4 (higher means more crime, US average = 328.4)

Granted, it's a small town, but it ain't exactly Mayberry.

Then again, you'd think the cops could be fighting REAL crime instead of hassling this guy.
