This is just a slap in the face. Not only does DC crime run rampant, if you are a victim of crime, not only do the criminals do damage, the government gets its cut, too.

More from The Blaze:
Terrell then went to the impound lot to retrieve her family's stolen SUV. Even though she could see her car from the sidewalk, she still couldn't drive it home after she learned that the city charged her more than $2,000 to cover the cost of towing and storage. To make matters worse, the thieves had also accrued at least one ticket on the city's traffic cameras — a ticket that was ultimately assessed against Terrell's family.
"I can't catch a break, but this time around I'm just determined to not give up," she said. Terrell reached out to the city, which eventually agreed to reduce some of the charges.
"Reduce SOME of the charges"???!!!
This is awful. But it's how government operates.

Sure seems that way, doesn't it?

Jewrnalist (@chochmalog) ~ Imagine getting robbed by a bunch of criminals on top of having your car stolen.
