The dynamic duo is at it again, playing fast and loose with the truth about crime in New Bedford. Yep, Mayor Jon Mitchell and Police Chief Joseph Cordeiro, caught red-handed using fuzzy math in telling the tale of the city s crime rate over the last 10 years. You may recall last week when New Bedford Police Union President Hank Turgeon questioned why crime figures submitted to the New Bedford City Council during the budget process were so much higher than those contained in the FBI s crime statistics later the same year. Turgeon suggested the numbers were either inflated to support Cordeiro s budget request or deflated later on for public relations purposes. This seemed to happen over a period of several years, according to Turgeon s research.
