DeSantis suspends Florida state attorney Monique Worrell for neglect of duty and soft stance on crime

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has suspended Monique Worrell, the state attorney for Florida's Ninth Judicial Circuit, accusing her of under-prosecuting criminals in her jurisdiction. DeSantis claimed that Worrell has been neglecting her duties by allowing criminals to evade incarceration through dropping charges or declining to allege provable facts. This is the second time DeSantis has taken executive action against an elected state attorney over accusations of being soft on crime. The move comes as DeSantis faces challenges in the Republican presidential primary and has made recent changes to his campaign staff.
