These monthly reports are now only available on our PB Involvement web site. The lack of support and suppression of the serious crime information by so many so-called community "leaders" and by the local community weekly paper for a considerable time, has, after two years, finally managed to destroy the efforts to bring back the Pacific Beach Citizens Patrol, the wide distribution of the monthly crime reports, various educational programs, and many other elements of that important effort.
However, on this web site (at groups.msn.com/PBInvolvement), you can still see the crime problems we must face. This web site will remain the last bastion of the whole truth about our little beach community. We hope that you will remember the personal sacrifice of time and funds that have been given and continue to be given to maintain this web site, distribute the related flyers and produce important new educational programs for the community.

IMPORTANT COMMUNICATIONS:
The month of March, ‘08 has shown us a jump to a total of 5 sexual assaults and 36 basic assaults and 73 crimes involving vehicles (not including DUIs which were up to 33 in the immediate area), and numerous other crimes which give us a final total of 221 for the month ALL WITHIN A SMALL ONE-MILE RADIUS FROM THE CENTER OF PACIFIC BEACH !
And this doesn’t even include the crime report that the police department missed sending us for the 8th of March. When you consider that, and the fact that so many crimes are not even reported, we have a total that can be considered to be even higher. Yes, crime is down at the beach, but not in the community of Pacific Beach.
