The info also cited two studies that that said the actual stopping a frisking didn't catch as many criminals as having the police in the high crime areas did.

The presence of the police helped because they were  there when crimes were occurring...versus them randomly stopping people and then not finding any crime had been committed.

It was pretty clear.
