In the early 1990's... about 18 years after Roe V Wade passed there was a massive drop in crime rates. More specifically each of the 50 states adopted abortion availability at various times. In all 50 states crime started dropping 18 years after abortions were accessable.

A lot of states are due for a massive crime wave.
