I am guessing interfering with a vehicle excludes all the stolen bikes, scooters and motorcycles.

turns out crime rates go down when no one is charged for doing them.

Just as well we have all those extra prison spaces so

How much of this is due to the fact less crime is being reported therefore the Garda don’t even turn up to crime scenes to know there was one.
Also keep in mind we have LESS Garda today compared to 2005, despite the population growing.

Petty crime is often not reported. The Ring cameras on our street catch people attempting to break into numerous cars every week, but neighbours have stopped reporting it.

We know for a fact they don’t investigate all crime so what’s the point of these statistics?
Also, courts would let people away with the crimes and even if they were jailed, they’d get out early because of overcrowding so again, what’s the point of any of this?

Assume these stats are based on “reported” crimes?
If so, then they mean jack shit.

Am I missing something but Demonstrations? Isn’t that just how a active democracy works? also this all looks great on paper but there could be decreases across the board but increases in attacks on specific groups, I’m not sure the GardaĆ are willing to publish that but it’s these they should be looking at not just saying “crime down time to relax”

Can’t document crime if you have fuck all Gardai.

This smells of data manipulation, I have many questions on the sources and wordings used here as a data scientist.
Iām sure the Gardai have made effort to reduce serious crime but a 25% decrease in just 6 months is very suspicious, for that to take place it would mean every town/city has seen a noticeable increase of Garda presence in catching criminals, I canāt speak for every town/city but the ones I know have not observed this at all.

Iām curious about rates of cybercrime and fraud.
Not the type of crime that people usually think about because it happens so āinvisiblyā, but itās pretty damaging economically to the people affected by it.

Why are “demonstrations(non -crime) being shown on a sheet of crime statistics?

Why are non crime demonstrations being included in this infographic?
Violent demonstrations sure absolutely but peaceful demonstrations under free speech should be no where near this ācrime statisticsā infographic.

Amazing job Gardai! That’s why we are all feeling much safer and secure

Anything on domestic violence and sexual assault or do we still not care? (I *do* get that this is a response to a “the streets aren’t safe for normal people” infogram directed at those who claim such things).

Call me a cynic but I can imagine a Wire style scene with the police chiefs discussing stats and how to massage them and make them look nice and presentable.

Important to remember the volume of crimes that never are and will never be reported.

Can’t count the stats if they don’t answer the phone, or tell you to deal with it yourself.

āCrime is decreasing so it must be because people arenāt reporting crimes anymoreā – Reddit Logic 2025
Unless people have only stopped reporting crimes since January of this year then last years stats would also have been effected by the underreporting and this years stats would still equal a reduction on reported crime.

Is this reported crime or actual cases that have had an outcome? .. because people have lost faith in them and literally do not bother calling. Imagine waiting for 3 hrs for them to just turn up and do absolutely nothing to help .

Why are non criminal demonstrations included? About as relevant as the amount of morning dumps taken the last 12 months

And yet, ā¬2.48 billion was allocated in the last budget for the recruitment of 5,000 more gardai. Surely with those amazing statistics we should be making redundancies. The streets have never been safer!
