Copying a Richmond, Calif program.
A Sept. 2016 ABC article praising the program and it’s star ‘fellow’: Dawaun Rice:

“Editors Note as of Sept. 25 2016: ABC News had previously reported that Dawaun Rice had no new gun charges since becoming a fellow, but that is no longer the case.”
The star ‘fellow’ was indicted in May for two murders- which happened while he was collecting $1300 a month from the program.
He also added that in the 6 1/2 years since the O.N.S. Fellowship was launched, 72 percent of the Fellows have not been suspected for new gun crimes since becoming a Fellow.
So 28% of them HAVE been "suspected for new gun crimes," and an unknown percentage above that have avoided being caught or exposed.
Well it is obvious the problem is they are not paying enough. Time for the taxpayers to ante up more money.
