Crime Forum Featuring Pirro Cancelled For Second Time Amid Rift with Trump
That leaves an obvious question hanging over the controversy: Why was the forum canceled again?
A Public Safety Forum That Never Happened
The planned discussion was supposed to focus on one of Washington’s most politically sensitive subjects: violent crime.
For years, crime and public safety have been major issues in Washington, with residents, police officials, prosecutors, elected leaders, and federal authorities frequently debating how best to reduce violence and improve confidence in the justice system.
A public forum featuring the city’s interim police chief and the U.S. attorney could therefore have provided an opportunity for residents to hear directly from officials involved in law enforcement.
Instead, the event disappeared from the calendar.
That it had already been canceled once made the second cancellation particularly notable.

The forum had originally been scheduled for June. It was subsequently rescheduled, only to be canceled again in August. Reports did not identify a specific public explanation from organizers for either cancellation.
