I've been curious about this myself. If wikipedia is to be believed, a study he commissioned concluded that his methods have done little to decrease recidivism.

This story in the Huffington post states that the crime rate in his jurisdiction has actually increased since 2002. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_646265.html

That's only the results of a quick googling. If anyone has some reliable sources that state otherwise I'd like to see them.
