Isn't that naked perjury then? I mean it's a simple fact: the murder rate is up 10% or it's not. He said under oath it is. If it's not, is that not perjury?

wikipedia:

Contrary to popular misconception, no crime has occurred when a false statement is (intentionally or unintentionally) made while under oath or subject to penalty—instead, criminal culpability only attaches at the instant the declarant falsely asserts the truth of statements (made or to be made) which are material to the outcome of the proceeding. For example, it is not perjury to lie about one's age except where age is a fact material to influencing the legal result, such as eligibility for old age retirement benefits or whether a person was of an age to have legal capacity.

perjury refers to the purposeful misrepresentation of facts concerning matters material to an official proceeding

If you can't prove that he intentionally got it wrong, and that it was relevant to the matter under investigation, you don't have a perjury case.

It has to be shown that not only is this statement false, but Sessions knows it is false and the fact that it is false matters to his testimony.

Well, the second part of that should be easy: "you are the attorney general. This is literally your job." but ah, on the third.
I do still enjoy that perjury just comes so naturally to him he can't help but lie under oath even on matters wholly unrelated to the topic at hand.
