Another “White” serial killer
Crime Stats Have Become a Joke
May 2, 2024
The state of Florida continues to classify Blacks, who have Spanish surnames, as White people in crime data. This is not isolated to Orange County; it is statewide.
Carlos Baez-Nieves has been charged with the murders of two alleged prostitutes, Nichole Daniels, 44, and Fatia Flowers, 41, occurring in March and April of this year. Orange County Sheriff John Mina is calling him a “potential serial killer.” These two murders will appear in Florida state crime data, as well as federal crime data, as one White-on-White murder and one White-on-Black murder.
No word on the immigration status of the suspect.
To this day, the federal government and a large number of US states have no racial category for Latinos. In Florida, it does not matter if a suspect is White, Amerindian, Mestizo, Mulatto, or Black if they have a Spanish surname. They are all classified as White offenders. This is why our Open Source Interracial Homicide Project is so important. We are creating the only comprehensive picture of what interracial homicide really looks like in the USA.
