No. You're ignoring the time dimension.

Past policing strategy means that current crime stats are unreliable. These current crime stats should therefore not form the basis of a future policing strategy.

If we're optimizing for getting results today, policing strategy should not rely on the flawed crime stats we have today.

If we're optimizing for the long term, then sure rely on crime stats, but first make it easy to report crime.
