DeSantis suspends elected Florida state attorney Monique Worrell, accusing her of being soft on crim
DeSantis suspends elected Florida state attorney Monique Worrell, accusing her of being soft on crimeFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday suspended Monique Worrell, the state attorney for Floridas Ninth Judicial Circuit, accusing her of under-prosecuting criminals in her jurisdiction.
An executive order signed by DeSantis and Secretary of State Cord Byrd accused Worrell of systematically allowing criminals to evade incarceration, either by dropping charges or declining to allege provable facts.
Worrell, a Democratic elected official who took office in 2021, accused DeSantis of peddling a false narrative and engaging in political gamesmanship.
We all know that this is not about policy or anything that Ive actually done, she said.
