President Donald Trump and Attorney General William Barr announced on Wednesday that they were expanding Operation Legend into two additional cities that have been deemed to be “plagued by recent violence.”
“Operation Legend is a sustained, systematic and coordinated law enforcement initiative in which federal law enforcement agencies work in conjunction with state and local law enforcement officials to fight violent crime,” the DOJ said in a statement Wednesday. “Operation Legend is named after four-year-old LeGend Taliferro, who was shot and killed while he slept early in the morning of June 29 in Kansas City.”
