BIRMINGHAM: It is amazing when you begin a quest to verify information what that quest leads you to.
This morning I read on AL.com a article " Mayor Bell: Donald Trump's dystopian, crime-riddled America doesn't describe Birmingham". The Birmingham Mayor was quoted as saying " crime in Birmingham is at an all time ow in the last 10 years".
I had nothing to base otherwise except that when reading news articles it seems there were always murders in Birmingham. So I started researching.
I found in 2014 the murder rate in Birmingham was 62, in 2015 the murder rate was 95 and so far in 2016 the murder rate was near 100. That did not match the statements made by the Birmingham Mayor.
When I called the Birmingham Mayor's Office they were extremely rude. They hung up on me. I called back 22 times, each time the Mayor's Office hanging up before they finally answered. I was determined they were not going to hang up.
After finally talking with a lady with Birmingham, I was told to call Lt. Shawn Edwards for the crime statistics. Which should be public record.
Seems like Birmingham Police has something to hide.
