🕵️ Investigator: Snap Press | CodeWatchdog Bureau

🚨 Summary
For over nine months, critical code enforcement data was intentionally withheld by Miami city officials, Snap Press has learned. Fire hazards, pest infestations, and structural violations were left unrecorded — leaving tenants, landlords, and emergency services in the dark.📬 Leaked Internal Emails
Internal emails obtained by Snap Press reveal the delay was deliberate:“We’ll resume uploading after the election.”“Too many violations make us look negligent.”These messages point to a city-wide strategy to suppress public risk data for political optics.📊 Suppressed Violation Stats
