From 2013 but relevant.

More than 200 people have been arrested for homicides that happened in Chicago in 2012 and 15-percent were 14-to-17 years old. Out of the adults, at least 90-percent had an arrest history in Chicago and more than a third of them were previously charged with weapons-related offenses, according to police data. WGN |

Has the 672 figure been verified by any other sources? That's over 16 arrests per victim. Sounds extraordinary, but I looked up info to confirm the number but did not find any.
The police chief did make the statements attributed, which, in themselves, are a pretty strong call to enforce laws on the small percentage of criminals that inflict violence on the neighborhoods. |

It was reported by the local news stations as well. Haven't seen any statements from Cook County disputing or corroborating. CPD has a program that does what you suggested, called strategic subjects list. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/05/31/going-inside-the-chicago-police-departments-strategic-subject-list/ CPD |
