Ultimately, the buck stops with me as the Acting Assistant Director for the CJIS Division. There's this press release, October 16, 2023, FBI releases 2022 crime in the Nation Statistics. Very prominent press release. But There was not a similar press release put out in regards to the revision that was done just recently. Why wasn't there not a press release put out in regards to the revision? Sure, I appreciate the question. So, to be clear, we did not revise any of the data. (01:20–01:27)
