In 2002, the city of Louisville passed a curfew that required youngsters below the age of 16 be off city streets after 10 o'clock at night. The ordinance proved controversial and was repealed in 2003. In late 2004, however, the ordinance was reenacted and has been enforced up to the present time. City officials would now like to know if the ordinance has actually reduced youth crime and violence in the city. How will you address this?
