TALLAHASSEE -- Rebekah Jones, the fired former state data analyst who went on to create her own site offering Florida pandemic numbers that disagreed with those released by the state, says she plans to leave the Sunshine State.
This follows the events of December 7th, when FDLE agents and local police armed with a search warrant took a computer from her home. They were investigating a message sent over state emergency channels that appeared to come from her IP address.
Jones says on her blog that "My family is no longer safe living in this state, and I cannot and will not ask them to make sacrifices of that magnitude for the work I am doing."

History may not define us, but it can sure tell us where we’ve been, if we’ll only look.It seems that these days we’d rather wipe out history instead of recalling it.And the victimhood crowd is always looking for something to whine about and something as simple as calling the South Dixie is apparently it.
We’re smart in this country in other ways and IN A HANDBASKET will take us to the ultimate in handling criminal convicts.
A USA Today columnist has decided the folks at church in Texas who were ready to defend themselves and their friends are “terrifying.”I suppose being a victim is more palatable to the author.Staying in the gun world, it appears the climate in Virginia has gun sales on the rise.I would have thought so.
