Reports of shoplifting and vehicle theft increased considerably in Springfield, Ohio, following the arrival of thousands of Haitian refugees, according to data obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation through a records request.

The town, which had a population of 58,622 in 2020, has taken in between 12,000 and 20,000 Haitian refugees over the past three years, marking a population increase of between 20.4% and 34.1%. From 2021 to 2023, Springfield also saw a 51.5% jump in motor vehicle theft reports and a 112.8% spike in reports of shoplifting, data provided by the Springfield Police Division shows.

Springfield residents previously told the DCNF that the influx of Haitians has resulted in an uptick in car accidents, increased housing prices, and strained public services. Bryan Heck, Springfield’s city manager, sent a letter to Democratic Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown, Republican Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, and Republican South Carolina Sen.

The first practical question to ask is what economic benefit or advantage to these illegal Haitian immigrants bring to the USA? With rare exception, the answer is likely to be
‘nothing at all’.

This seems like a sick experiment performed by the left on a conservative area of the country. How much failure will be created in Springfield? How will the residents respond?

Essentials recon and procurement, along with transportation justice and equity acquisitions, are in line with a mostly reasonable and peaceful Hatian adaptation to American suburbia social expectations. It’s a conversation Kamala says we need to have.

I know Dewine owns a charity of some sort in Haiti. Why does he not house the immigrants at his own residence?

The feds would import pre-packaged dehydrated MRE Cat Jerky for $700 per pound, if this was a federal $hit Show. Some sort of taxpayer funded culturally adaptive nutritional grant thru a NGO.

This is all DeWine.

That’s not happening! They are all here working; the businesses need them.

By all accounts they are not illegals. They are flown into the US by the US government. Does not make them less problematic, of course.

The white people are taking advantage of the situation since they know that the Haitians of color will be blamed for the thefts. /s

Dumping a group of foreigners on a place equivalent to 1/3rd of the local population is the sort of thing that Herodotus would describe a tyrant doing to punish a city for rebelling or siding with his enemy in war

NGOs, landlords, factory owners, social workers, interpreters, cultural liaisons and DEI organizers are making out like bandits.

The citizenry at large is taking a costly hit, in Springfield and nationwide.

The media is throwing “conspiracy” and “unfounded” to everything Springfield Ohio to protect the Harris ILLEGALS.
