Thanks once more to rtpscott for alerting me to the above.

Surge in violent crime and drug deaths?

Inverness – from 88 cases in 2018 to 326 in 2022, a 270% increase.

Consider the contrast with large urban areas such as Glasgow which only saw a 6% increase in crimes of violence [1 563 to 1 651] to illustrate the appalling consequences of the County Lines gang penetration of small town Scotland.

Drug deaths in Highland have continued to climb, despite a national decline, from 33 in 2020 to 42 in 2022.
