FACT CHECK: Kamala’s Crime Spin Is NOT Reality
September 10, 2024
Kamala Harris is relying on highly incomplete data to make inaccurate claims about crime as she tells Americans not to believe their lying eyes.
- When Kamala took office, the FBI changed how it collects crime data. Now, the FBI's Q1 2024 data is missing nearly a third of the nation's law enforcement agencies — including from many of the most violent cities, such as Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland, and New Orleans.
- A much more accurate picture emerges from the DOJ’s National Crime Victimization Survey, which shows crime is WAY UP over pre-pandemic levels.
- There was a 43% increase in violent crimes, a 58% increase in rapes, an 89% increase in aggravated assaults, and a 56% increase in robberies between 2020 and 2022, the most recent year for which data is available.
- More Americans were victims of violent crimes in 2022 than in any year since 2012.
- Kamala has presided over three of the four most murderous years in the last quarter century.
- Even using the flawed FBI data, there has been a 10% increase in the average annual number of homicides under Kamala (20,700) compared to President Trump (18,627).
- In most cities, murder rates remain higher than pre-pandemic levels.
- There was a 43% increase in violent crimes, a 58% increase in rapes, an 89% increase in aggravated assaults, and a 56% increase in robberies between 2020 and 2022, the most recent year for which data is available.
- The data is also missing an entirely new category of crime against U.S. citizens at the hands of illegal aliens Kamala has ferried in — HARRIS MIGRANT CRIME.
- Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old Maryland mother of five, was raped and strangled to death by an illegal alien in 2023. Her partially naked body was found in a drainage tunnel near a hiking trail.
- Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student from Georgia, was savagely murdered by an illegal alien who strangled her and beat her over the head with a rock as she was out for a jog.
- Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old Houston girl, was brutally murdered by two illegal aliens who lured her under a bridge, tied her up, and sexually assaulted her for hours before killing her and throwing her body into a bayou. One of her assailants was wearing an ICE ankle monitor as he committed the heinous crimes.
- Rachel Morin, a 37-year-old Maryland mother of five, was raped and strangled to death by an illegal alien in 2023. Her partially naked body was found in a drainage tunnel near a hiking trail.
President Donald J. Trump will END the lawlessness once again.
