Migrant Criminal Tactics in the Big Apple
CNN analyst John Miller disclosed that while most migrants are not involved in criminal activities, a small criminal element prefers New York City for its unique criminal opportunities. Miller highlighted the modus operandi of a particular crew engaged in organized retail theft, operating on mopeds and scooters, conducting street snatches of items like iPhones, iPads, and clothing.
With an alarming list of charges, this criminal crew strategically operates in New York City, then heads to Florida to spend their ill-gotten gains, only to return to the scene of their crimes. As explained by Miller, the surprising reason for not staying in Florida is the higher risk of being incarcerated in the Sunshine State.
As Miller wrapped up his report, an astonished CNN anchor Erica Hill could only manage an “Oh,” while co-anchor Phil Mattingly commended the analyst’s insightful reporting.

Florida’s Response and Legal Questions
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis responded to the report, emphasizing the success of their approach to maintaining public safety. He pointed out the reasons people might be fleeing areas where streets are not secure and homelessness is rampant.
Despite the shocking revelations, questions remain about the legal proceedings. It’s unclear why Manhattan prosecutors did not request bail for the accused migrants, leading to concerns raised by NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell about the entire legal system.
