| | | | | | | George II of Great Britain: Encyclopedia II - Wilmington Delaware - Crime Given Wilmington's central location between Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and New York City, the city saw a massive rise in drug sales in the early 1990s. Dealers found that Wilmington's poorly patrolled streets and underfunded police force (at one time only eight police cars would monitor the city at night) made the city a relatively easy location in which to operate.
Drugs and gangs gained a greater profile in the city throughout the 1980's and 1990's. Coupled with this increased presence were increases in violent crimes (murder, ...

| | | | | George II of Great Britain: Encyclopedia II - Frederick Prince of Wales - Death His political ambitions remained unfulfilled, because he died prematurely at the age of forty-four.
