Florida law enforcement officials were warned by their staff that recent crime comments from Gov. Ron DeSantis were based on incomplete data that makes the accuracy of the claim impossible to verify.

Inconsistent crime statistics – the very staples used by gun control advocates and progressives in blue cities to hide the failures of their policies. NBC "News" putting out more pro-Biden 2024 Campaign Ad pieces again. The fact that it's viewers are too blind to see it is a testament to their own ignorance.
Well, the people in Florida been saying it and y’all haven’t been reporting that just because somebody say some dental minister you’re supposed to go get the fax and y’all allow him to spew that lie for several months
He did the same thing with covid-19 numbers and even imprisoned people who said otherwise.
Oh wow. Another liar. Why am I not surprised
His crime rate at a 50 year low statistic is based on a report that gets its information from law enforcement across Florida. The problem is only 8% of law enforcement agencies in Florida report. This is the lowest reporting in the country and doesn't include many major cities like Miami.
Why am I not surprised?
another page out of the trump book of narcissist political rhetoric. LIE LIE LIE WHEN IT SERVES YOU FOR A SOUND BITE, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE OUT OF STATE.
Everyone should be used to this by now with the democrats,what’s the big deal!!!!
Yea, SURPRISE SURPRISE. MAGAAT politicians LIE? DUH.
They attacked arizona with propaganda and misinformation when I lived there then stole it blue. That’s what they’re trying to do to Florida. Seen it before. Been here. Done that.
So. We can't prove it wrong, we'll just say he is using incomplete data. Got it.
Yeah desantis is as bad as trumph a nothing burger 🍔
That reporter weiner's rule of thumb has his right to ignore a coherent, consistent story that involves numbers and go with what the gossip herd and their gossip herd's money wants to go with instead.
So he’s lying about something else. What a smuck
50 year low? Where has he been. Every other news brief concerning Florida doesn't mean less crime Ron.
the guy is so woke, he took himself to the back of the bus. now he will never be president. what a shame. . . lol
Highly doubtful about crime numbers just like the COVID numbers 🔢 in Florida
Fake news selling propaganda for democrats everyone in America knows this
If Florida is at a 50 year crime low and is still the butt of dumb criminal jokes where does that really leave Florida? No for real whats up with that? As a gun and alligator owning Floridian i wanna know which to take to the store!
I am no Desantis fan (at all) but to say he is using incomplete data without pointing out where he is wrong or what he is saying that is inaccurate shows you have no case.
Do what?! A conservative Republican citing inaccurate/incomplete data that favors him and his party while denigrating the opps??? You don’t say!
🤥
So he isn’t wrong
Yet again more proof that if you're a Democrat and you use BS numbers to inflate your story or to make you and your city and your political side look good it's perfectly acceptable. But if you're Republican and you use inflated numbers or incorrect data to make you your city and your political side look good it's wrong.
A quick check on wickapedi and FDLE shows that the homicide rate ( per 100,000) is 50% higher than 2005.
Instead of lying about crime being low, how about fix the issues that causes it. Crime is most committed by people in poverty. Put jobs in their area that they WILL be hired for, pay higher wages, help with their housing and medical insurance.
As inflation continues to increase so will crime
Florida Governor will never be able to stand up to anyone. Trump will stand up and fix America
I would rather live in Florida than any other state in the country. California, New York, Oregon are some of the worst places to live.
Our leaders love misleading the public,specially when it comes too the economy and crime,it's always to make themselves look good,whether it's fact or fiction 😊
But I don't like ugly lies lies lies just one of the commandments don't lie.😊😅
Pricleess NBC refuses to call out out habitual lyin Biden but "inconsistencies" in Desantis speeches are very troubling. 😂😂😂😂😂
Listening to MSNBC talk about somebody else's confirmation bias, especially of a politician they clearly despise, I think is quite hypocritical and ironic indeed.
This is your typical NBC Liberal Fake News hit piece. I live in FL and my job takes me all over the state. DeSantis and law enforcement are doing a super job!! Law enforcement backs DeSantis 100%. It's pathetic NBC attacks DeSantis on Fake BS when you have people fleeing every demonCrat run city in the nation, including companies like Walgreens, CVS and Walmart. There is NO law enforcement, just complete, total demoRat crime ridden chaos!!!
At this point he doesn't even know NOR has the self-awareness to realize when he's lying.
You know for certain when DeSantis is lying which is anytime he’s talking.
So they're saying he made unverified claims not that he's wrong. Ok..and ? People are acting like they've never heard a f**** politician talk.
Didnt a guy just carve his son up with an angle grinder? and then a boy killed his mother in Riverview too just a few days after. What about granny that shot the African American lady in Jacksonville before that?
What’s interesting is that the Floridians supporting DeSantis have no idea how to fact check and/or they don’t see the need for fact checking because they’re anti-intellectual.
Duhsantis is a pathetic liar 🤥 Our State is so messed up!! Our inflation is 9% and there’s a lot of crime here. Our utilities and insurances have increased up to 50%!!!
Unless you’re rich, you’re going to be priced out and have to beg for money to leave here! Look at all the gofundme accounts looking for money to leave here!!!
Duhsantis should have stepped down so we could have a governor!!!!😡
A Republican lied? I’m shocked
So again, he lied. Smh there needs to be ethic laws to keep from our government or people like Deathsantis, lying to our faces!
He is a liar! Lied about the thousands he let die during COVID too including 2 members of my family with his disinformation. He has blood on his hands
Florida’s Murder rate is almost the same as Illinois.
How would Rhonda know anything about Florida – he never spends any time there?
Ah DePenis just something else you've exaggerated about. 😁
Figures don't lie, liers figure
Politicians like him, the fruitloop from Carolina, Graham they will say and do anything to trick and lie to folks to get what they want be damed who they hurt. That may have worked a year or so ago but not anymore the mob rule and crazy talk with stupid and crazy leaders is coming to a end I hope it happens sooner
