Republican chief prosecutor obliterates J.D. Vance's claims on Haitian immigrant crime (msn.com)

Daniel Driscoll, the Republican chief prosecutor for Clark County, which includes Springfield, Ohio, is calling out Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) for lying about crime statistics to create a story that the city is being overrun with violence.

Driscoll spoke to CNN's fact-checker Daniel Dale after Vance falsely claimed that "murders are up by 81 percent because of what Kamala Harris has allowed happening to this small community."

According to Dale, Vance's campaign claimed he was comparing the numbers from 2021, which had five murders, to 2023, which had nine. That actually calculates to an 80 percent increase, but the numbers are hardly reflective of the reality.

Under Donald Trump's presidency, crime in Springfield was considerably higher than under President Joe Biden.

While Trump was president, there were a total of 33 murders. Under Biden, it was 20. So far, in 2024, the murders are down as well with just two.

"This year through July," Dale explained on X, they had "just two murders compared to five at the same point last year. There's no indication that last year's 9 is anything other than the usual inexplicable fluctuation that had one Trump year at 13 and the next at three."

Further undermining Vance's claims, Driscoll added that there hasn't been a single murder involving a member of the Haitian community in the 21 years he said he's been in office.
