Miami (January 24, 2022) – “Yesterday, residents of Miami Beach and Surfside neighborhoods found their homes and properties soiled by anti-Semitic flyers.
Residents of Miami-Dade should be assured that my prosecutors are working with the police to find these individuals, whose hope of planting seeds of hate in our community will fail.
I take hate crimes very seriously and that is why I created a hate crimes prosecution unit. If there is evidence that meets the requirements of Florida law for a criminal prosecution of these, vile hate-filled pamphlets, we will take this matter to our criminal courts.
We will not allow hate mongers, who are leaving garbage throughout our community, to divide and harm our community.”
