	Description:		Crime is a constant hot topic of debate in New Zealand – one that is rarely far from the front pages. The recent alleged murder of University of Auckland student Kyle Whorrall in Auckland has served as a reminder of the randomness that comes with violent crime – with a 16 year old now charged with his murder. But the Government is touting that violent crime is on the decline – years before their intended target. So are our streets really any safer – and is vibe more than policy influencing this? Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald senior journalist Derek Cheng is with us to discuss the stats. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
