I guess this is the way now.
Arrest but don't hold them . . . and now don't bother even arresting them because you're not going to hold them . . . don't even call in the crime because nothing is done.

Murray Rankin told the legislature on Tuesday that increasing arrests is not the answer to battle crime.
Opposition Liberal Leader Kevin Falcon told the legislature the government’s ongoing “catch-and-release” policy where repeat offenders are quickly freed from custody despite being accused of violent crimes has created fear for residents in cities from Vancouver to Terrace.
“Criminals emboldened by the lack of enforcement of this government, and four violent random attacks in Vancouver every single day,” he said.“Most recently a young woman in Vancouver followed into her apartment, thrown on the ground and assaulted by a young man. Just the other day.”
The report states: “In Terrace, the mayor and a councillor reported, ‘The stats don’t tell the truth. Crime isn’t going down. It’s the worst it’s ever been. People aren’t reporting because there’s no point because they’re out so fast.’”
