When 23-year-old Kada Scott vanished after her nursing-home shift, she did everything right. She reported harassment. She said she felt unsafe. Two weeks later, she was found in a shallow grave behind an abandoned Philadelphia school.
The man charged with her kidnapping — Keon King — was no stranger to the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office. Earlier this year, King had been arrested for stalking and strangling another woman. There was video evidence. There was opportunity. And yet, District Attorney Larry Krasner’s team dropped the case.

Months later, Kada Scott was gone.
Krasner admits, “We could have done better.”
But that’s not accountability — that’s an obituary for justice.
Under Larry Krasner’s leadership, Philadelphia’s conviction rate for violent crimes has plummeted to roughly 33 percent, according to The Philadelphia Inquirer. Officers call it a “revolving door.” Federal prosecutors have accused his office of leniency that costs lives. And the pattern keeps repeating:

In 2019, Officer James O’Connor IV was shot and killed by a suspect whose earlier charges Krasner’s office had dropped.
In 2020, U.S. Attorney William McSwain cited ten other cases where defendants given light treatment by Krasner went on to commit new violent crimes.
Gun-crime prosecutions have collapsed even as shootings soar.

Krasner’s defenders call it “reform.” But when entire neighborhoods live in fear, when families like the Scotts bury loved ones, that’s not reform — that’s failure disguised as progress.
This isn’t about politics. It’s about competence, duty, and the lives lost because one office keeps choosing ideology over accountability.
In this episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski breaks down the numbers, the names, and the moral cost of a DA who promised fairness but delivered chaos.
Because when justice becomes an experiment, real people become the test subjects — and Philadelphia keeps paying the price.
