Those numbers are accurate in that they're what is reported to the state.

Except that the latest reported data for the state is '12/'13 and shows -5% in crime rate and -4.3% in overall crime. (no specifics for violent crimes)

This is a 'report' that appears to have been generated specifically for the electoral discussion (due to the time it has appeared and that there are no other reports like it).  It lists 96 murders for '14, but this isn't official as we have no way to confirm that these are the numbers that will be submitted to FDLE.
