Apples and oranges. The two are unrelated. Being falsely accused would put a higher burden on the system. It happens some times, but to link one as a result of the other is pure conjecture.

It's part of the intersection between the culture that allows lawsuits against restaurants because you ate too much of their junkfood, and the the climate of fear and paranoia and intolerance that is sweeping the country.
When you take people who are already lawsuit-indulgent and start screaming about "terrorist" and "illegals" (as if the latter were even a noun), is it any surprise the people have turned to the criminal side of the legal vendetta to pursuit their hate-and-fear based agenda?

It's probably due to inadequate training, staffing, funds, etc. That type of thing. An re-election bid might have an impact on people being falsely accused though.
I doubt it's due to unsolved cases.

Do you have some one specific in mind?
What happened in Illinois that made you ask this question? A link would be good and we can go from there.

Could you post your source of this information about a surge of false accusations. Or is this just your opinion?
