I'd be just about willing to move my Criminal practice there. It's likely safer than Miami, and it sounds like business is booming.

Profiles are developed using statistics and are used with great success world wide. What happened is a shame, that doesn't make it a crime. It is being said that the police, fire, DA office, and anyone else involved in this matter all acted with prejudice. Isn't putting all those people in the same mind set profiling, and doesn't it reek of a prejudice on its face? Sounds like a stereotype to me. boar out.

I used to work Fire/Rescue for Sanford, and I can tell you I ran a LOT of shootings there. More there than in Broward County. There are several federal housing projects there, used to be even more until they lost funding.
