The FBI Has Still Not Released 2023 Crime Numbers

I am getting ready to teach my Criminal Justice Process class and the FBI under Joe Biden has still not released the 2023 numbers on the CDE. The UCR stops at 2019. It has become an archive. That means Biden’s FBI stopped releasing UCR data when it switched to the dash boarding system, which was supposed to be continually updated (that’s what dash boarding is supposedly for), and then stopped reporting altogether after 2022.

Why do you think that is? If crime were going down as Democrats say, then wouldn’t they publish the data? You’d think. Or maybe crime isn’t going down. Maybe crime is going up, and the data indicate demographic patterns that contradict progressive claims about who perpetrates serious crime and who are most at risk from criminal perpetration.

Rational decision making—who to vote for, where to live, where to go when one goes out, determining whether your children are safe, etc.—depends on accurate and up-to-date information. Why would the federal government keep that data from you? To be sure, the blue cities are not submitting data or only submitting partial data. But we need to see what the FBI has so were can compare which states and municipalities are willing to share data with the public and which are not.

Democrats are following a trend we find in European states where data showing how bad crime has gotten over the last several years is being suppressed by social democrats, which are the analogs to progressives in America. I suspect that this is what is happening here. One more way woke ideology is corrupting information
