Full news conference: Grady Judd on deadly Lake Wales shooting

[@judithbradford9130]

This is exactly why I stopped leasing our homes on Air BnB. What should be a quiet beach house becomes a party palace and our homes get destroyed by people who have never had anything nice.

[@carefulconsumer8682]

People rent another house to destroy instead of their own.

I don't live anywhere near Tampa Bay, or even Florida. I just am so intrigued by this sheriff's news conferences, that I watch the videos when they show up. He has a way of relaying the events that make them interesting and relevant. Again, I don't know anything about his politics or the way he runs his department, but when he describes the situations, I can picture everything he is relaying to the people listening.

[@RMcCoy-fb4rs]

I love him and he's been an fixture in Polk county a long time. I used to read about Sheriff Arpaino in Arizona until what appeared to be dirty politics got rid of him. Sad cause he was a lot like Sheriff Grady.

[@RMcCoy-fb4rs]

@@reedo9002 These are called a "press conference". Sheriff Grady, and many other elected Sheriffs in Florida do them either weekly, monthly or just when they need help from the public. He's been doing them for many years and the people have reelected him over and over. Sheriff is the only office he's run for and he has said it is the only job he wants.

Many move away from urban areas for safety, but now raiding parties made up of gang members are leaving those areas for distant suburbs in the next county looking to steal mostly, but shootings are also becoming more common. The shootings are mostly for now by minority people that are shooting others of their same social group plus any bystanders that happen to be collateral damage. There was one party not too long ago in a small Alabama south eastern town that had over 40 casualties plus IIRC 4 dead. Two of the dead were armed and all were less than 21. I believe that a glock switch (Full auto sear for a glock) was involved. The killers were from out of town. This is something where the communities that spawn these criminals and killers need to act. Law enforcement only acts after the crime occurs. These young people needed to be reached one way or another within their communities prior to them committing these atrocities. Often drugs are also involved.
