He was originally appointed police chief by Detroit emergency manager Kevyn Orr. When Craig took over as police chief he was replacing Chester Logan, who had held the position on an interim basis since the previous October when Ralph Godbee, who was fired for having sexual relations with a subordinate.[1] In early 2014 Criag made national headlines by saying more armed citizens would decrease the crime rate.[2][3] At times Craig has made headlines by describing people involved in mass shootings in the city as "urban terrorists".[4] In December 2015 Craig said that terrorist are unlikely to attack Detroit because so many residents have concealed carry permits.[5] In January 2016 Craig was also designated as Detroit's deputy mayor.[6] As police chief Craig has initiated Project Green Light to provide police live stream of videos to businesses to better respond to crimes there.
