  1. Great Job TPD ! The clearance of murder cases in Tallahassee police department are 94% I believe ( Nation average is like 57%) That is amazing in a city full of liberals that want to made Tallahassee like LA. I couldn’t imagine how difficult your jobs must be with public officials with political connections to The Socialist Democratic party I sure you get 0 to little support. They wrote policy to intentionally keep opportunities very low for the middle to less advantages making the crime rates difficult to control.
