Four years later, both violent and property crimes have increased.
So, does Sniff accept responsibility for this increase in crime? He’s too busy having surrogates while in public about imagined injustices.
Instead, Sniff ignores his dismal record in Riverside County and falsely claims that crime has decreased. This despite numerous photos and accounts of dilapidated equipment, exhausted troops, cover ups of malfeasance, budget games, contract cities getting shortchanged, apathy, corruption and the like in the department.
Allow your intrepid blogger to the correct the crime numbers covering Sniff’s current term in office, as reported by the Riverside County Sheriffs Department to the FBI and CA Department of Justice: (But not Reported in the Local Media)
Sniff lies to the voters, pretending that crime is going down, but his own numbers prove he is lying.
Over the last four years (since his last election)
2014-2017 Violent Crime Increased 9%
2014-2017 Property Crime Increased 6%
VIOLENT CRIMES BY THE NUMBERS
2014 Riverside Sheriff Violent Crimes reported …………..2838
2017 Riverside Sheriff Violent Crimes reported …………..3091

PROPERTY CRIMES BY THE NUMBERS
2014 Riverside Sheriff Property Crimes reported…………33,151
2017 Riverside Sheriff Property Crimes reported…………35,128
Property crimes have INCREASED during Sniff’s last term in office.
Stan Sniff lies, but the numbers don’t lie.
Crime has gone up while Sniff pretends all is well.

The uncultured swine we have making decisions for us on the second floor is an embarrassment. Our so-called executive staff makes decisions that are more in line with a Dukes of Hazard style form of management, as compared to the decisions and policies made by other progressive agencies in So Cal. The second floor maintains power through threats and intimidation, and rewards their minions as the critical thinkers are punished and denied advancement and appointments because their capabilities exceeds that of the political appointees the command staff have chosen to promote. It will take time for Chad Bianco to weed out the Jason Huskey’s and Zach Hall’s of the Department, But in the end it will benefit the citizens.
We can only hope that when Sniff leaves office, that is when the investigation into his “high crimes” commences, to include his second floor staff, and if we’re lucky, the BOS. And even though I heard Aaron “Cheating punk” Kent was at Bianco’s fund raiser, he still can’t be trusted. I highly doubt he would abandon his Academy buddy Kevin “Sniff is a genius” Vest who helped him cheat on the test to make Lt. He should be one of the first to get his walking papers come January.
More proof of Sniff lying to voters.
Even my second-grader can tell that 3,091 is higher than 2,838. Sniff is betting that voters can’t understand basic arithmetic.
So let’s look at the numbers.
Can you tell which numbers are higher and which numbers are lower?
2014 2017 % Change
Violent Crime ………………..2,838……..3,091 +9%
Homicide …………………………..47………….42 -10.6%
Rape ……………………………….125………..146 +16.8%
Forcible Rape (pre-2014)……111…………130 +17.1%
Robbery……………………………908………1,032 +13.6%
Aggravated Assault…………1,758………1,871 +6.4%
Property Crime……………..33,151…….35,128 +6%
Burglary ………………………..8,296………6,291 -24%
Car Theft……………………….4,989………5,749 +15.2%
Larceny/Theft……………….19,866…….23,088 +16.2%
Arson ……………………………….74…………..70 -5.4%
Results?
Out of 11 criminal categories tracked by the FBI and the Department of Justice for the years 2014-2017,
Under Sniff’s failed leadership, just 3 categories reported slower numbers in 2017 compared to 2014.
More troubling, is that the other 8 categories showed significant increases in crime, including overall crime and overall violent and overall property crimes.
It’s truly mind-boggling that Sniff has a new commercial where he looks the camera in the eye and tells the audience that crime has been reduced.
Sniff knows, and the numbers show that he is lying but he can’t help himself. He will say or do anything to keep his political power.
