To say that things got awkward during this press conference yesterday would be an understatement.
In case you didn t know, over in Houston, Police Chief Art Acevedo will be taking his talents to South Beach. That s right, he is going to be the Police Chief in Miami. In fact, the Mayor of Miami can t wait for him to get there. The Mayor has said Acevedo is like the Michael Jordan or Tom Brady of police chiefs . Dang, Acevedo is the G.O.A.T. of police chiefs? Had no idea.
Acevedo during a press conference yesterday was speaking with reporters and the increasing homicide rate was brought up. Houston had over 400 homicides last year, this year they have 96. They re almost averaging a homicide a day in the city. A reporter brought this up with Chief Acevedo about the raising rate and taking a new job in Miami. He said, Get ready for 500 murders at the rate this is going.”
