The mayor and John Rutherford both insisted in 2015 that Alvin Brown's budgeting was the real reason that Jacksonville had a murder problem. Now after six years of giving JSO a blank check, things are somehow worse. All Curry can say is, "I did my part." https://twitter.com/bridgetteANjax/status/1318209730096078850

Rutherford was quite active in the 2015 Jacksonville Mayor's race. He did everything he could to get the first black mayor fired. In 2015 he had this to say to @FCN2go

Since that time Rutherford was given a promotion to Congress and Curry and his Sherrif that he ran with as a ticket have been re-elected. JSO has experienced a windfall since then. This is what we got for our money.

More violent crime, more murder, and somehow more money gets shoveled into JSO's coffers with zero accountability.

It's shocking that Mike Williams is still employed.
It's not shocking that John Rutherford is the strongest possible supporter of a Nazi game show host.

I just want to circle back to point out how bananas this was. Rutherford was doing a very bad job keeping Jacksonville residents from being murdered and he blamed the black mayor for it. The black mayor was fired and Rutherford got a promotion and nothing changed.
