Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi received your email regarding your
concerns with John Crewdson. Attorney General Bondi asked that I respond.
I appreciate that you have considered the Attorney General's Office as a
source of assistance. However, the Florida Department of Agriculture and
Consumer Services (DACS), Division of Licensing, is the state agency
assigned responsibility for the issuance of concealed weapon or firearm
licenses in accordance with Section 790.06, Florida Statutes. I encourage
you to convey your concerns to that office at:
Florida Department of Agriculture
and Consumer Services
Division of Licensing
Post Office Box 6687
Tallahassee, Florida 32314-6687
Telephone: (850) 245-5691

In addition, in Florida, the local police or sheriff's office and elected
state attorney investigate and prosecute criminal violations at the local
level. Those authorities operate independently and are not a part of the
Attorney General's Office. If you wish to seek consideration of a
criminal investigation, please contact the appropriate law enforcement
agencies. The contact information for the state attorneys' offices is
