DeSantis ousts another Soros-backed prosecutor.
Florida Governor Suspends State Attorney for Dereliction of Duty
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis made a bold move on Wednesday morning, announcing the suspension of Monique Worrell, State Attorney for the Ninth Judicial Circuit. This decision was made due to Worrell’s alleged dereliction of duty and incompetence.
According to DeSantis, Worrell, who had the backing of a group connected to Democrat billionaire George Soros, has been allowing dangerous criminals to receive lenient sentences, evading the full consequences of their actions. This has included murderers, violent offenders, and drug traffickers.
The executive order issued by DeSantis highlights several policies and practices that led to Worrell’s removal. These include avoiding minimum mandatory sentences for gun crimes and drug trafficking offenses, allowing juvenile offenders to escape serious charges and incarceration, and avoiding valid sentencing enhancements. Additionally, Worrell has been accused of limiting charges for child pornography and seeking withhold of adjudication in situations not permitted under Florida law.
This move by DeSantis is reminiscent of his previous action against another Soros-backed prosecutor, State Attorney Andrew Warren of the 13th Judicial Circuit, who was removed from office just a year ago.
