Counter-terrorism spending continues to rise as prosecutions go down By Marisa Schultz |
|
WASHINGTON — Since the horrific Sept. 11 terror attacks, resources and personnel dedicated to counterterrorism have skyrocketed, but prosecutions for terror crimes fell. For 2014, the US is on track to prosecute 192 terrorism cases — the lowest since 2001, according to Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. The number of prosecutions has steadily dropped since peaking at 1,260 in 2002. There were 248 in 2013. |
