No reasonable News Correspondent would report accurate facts and figures within 4 years of a Presidential Election.... :-)
I was deliberate.
Sooner or later, all of their numbers require revision.
IT was deliberate.
On purpose.
Gotta blunt that red wave.
How’d they miss it? They didn’t. They just lied about it.
“1,699 murders”
Can somebody please reach out to Martha Raddatz and ask if that number constitutes a “handfull”?
They honestly forgot that the crime-ridden, big blue cities were part of the U.S. It could happen to anyone.
Starting in May 2020, murders, violent crime and also traffic fatalities jumped 30%-40% - and stayed high, particularly among blacks.
It is called “the George Floyd Effect.”
It confirmed Leftist-DOJ control of independent police forces, and the death of local policing.
FBI has become liberal politicized.
LIAR FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
Mayor Marion Barry was upset that DC was “The Murder Capital” of America. He called in the chief of police and asked where the FBI got their data. The DC police provided it. The mayor redefined murder. If I recall, the victim had to be shot three times. Anything else was suicide. The statistics got instantly better.
Another way the FBI can improve statistics is when the White House calls and says, “the new number is X. Make it so.”
Whoopsie doodle. The non partisan FBI just made an Oopsie is all. Right before the election to help Kamala. They would never lie on purpose. Just ask them.
Has the KGB broke the password on Hunter’s laptop yet?
Multiple reasons:
If a felony charge is plea bargained down to a misdemeanor, it gets reported that way

Plus the FBI changed their reporting system in 2021 (conveniently) and many police departments are not using it, and thus not reporting their crime stats. For example, LAPD and NYPD did not report in 2022, which makes the stats worthless.

missed, ignored, such a fine line...
These cases are not being reported to the FBI.
For more detail, Houston Police chief resigns, mayor 'shocked' by latest investigation’s revelation.
Excerpt:
Houston’s police chief has resigned after emails obtained by a local news outlet appear to show that he knew about massive failures in the department well before he said he did. Within hours of issuing a statement about the findings, he resigned.In February, Houston Police Chief Troy Finner first announced that the Houston Police Department dropped 264,000 crime reports, including violent crimes and sexual assaults, which weren’t investigated because a “lack of personnel” code was assigned to them, The Center Square reported.
In March, new Houston Mayor John Whitmire appointed an independent panel to review an internal HPD investigation into how the hundreds of thousands of criminal incident reports fell through the cracks. When Finner apologized at a news conference for the code being used, he said he first learned of its use in November 2021. He also said he told his senior leadership team to make sure it was no longer used.
Hours later, he submitted his resignation to Mayor John Whitmire, who accepted it. Whitmire sent a notification to HPD that he had accepted Finner’s immediate resignation and had appointed Larry Satterwhite as Acting Chief of Police on May 8.
I think much of this goes back to the day when liberal DA Kim Ogg took over from Republican Devon Anderson in 2017.
Late in the 2016 campaign, it was discovered that the Houston police department destroyed thousands of pieces of evidence that was held in the property room. Besides running on a soft-on-crime platform with most of the liberal Democrat DA's, Ogg added the property room evidence scandal to the campaign to oust Anderson.
Ogg won the election 54.2% to 45.8% for Anderson.
Now Ogg has her own problems, including a very public fight with Harris County Judge (aka County Commissioner) Lina Hidalgo.
And the Houston PD wasn't helping matters much.
We now see the national impact of problems like this when the crime rates are being politicized and the statistics they're using are erroneous.

Kamala wins by 10%!
