A bit issue is a lack of judges and court rooms, causing large backlogs.
Not that it excuses it, but inflation and higher levels of poverty breeds more crime with regards to theft/shoplifting. Drug addiction too. Get inflation under wraps (reasonable level) and more drug addicts into rehab, increase enforcement to keep fentanyl off the streets and then there should be less crime.

That seems almost utopian though, implementing any of that would be rather cumbersome.

Many of the family doctors are immigrants, I don't suppose we can encourage immigration to fill roles in our legal system?

It really is too bad that it seems we have a system that can't be fixed. So the cycle of crime will continue/get worse.
