Maxwell “Start Snitching” “Start Snitching” By Bill Maxwell. His idea for making crime riddled communities safer. Snitching may be a way to catch the killers that remain at large, that keep adding names to the list of deaths. In a lot of cases police have a hard time catching a kill when there is no lead, by snitching (Informing the police of an information that someone has of a crime.) may lead to criminals being put behind bars. According to Maxwell the low-income black community needs to snitch. “blacks comprised only 13 percent of the population in 2005, they were victims of about 49 percent of all homicides, and 93 percent of those victims were killed by other blacks” according to U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics report.
