Not quite correct, I was saying that with a lot less police on the front line the chances of a criminal intent on re-offending and getting away with it is higher.
If you cut front line policing, you have fewer officers patrolling, fewer officers visiting schools to advise children on the dangers of people like this criminal, fewer officers able to respond to calls for help, etc.
Here's a couple of the many recent articles on police cuts:
