I have been in San Antonio since November 2020 and there have been a lot of murders. I lived in New York City for ten years and they claimed to have 400 murders a year, but I was not encountering news reports often enough to lead me to believe a murder every day. I read both tabloids every day for four years and there were not enough reports to equal the claim.
But here in San Antonio, I am encountering three murder reports a week, at least, and multiple killings seem to be way more often than what I encountered in NYC. It would be months between multiple murders in NYC.
This morning's report:
Two days ago:
A week ago - it wasn't a murder, but look at this a brawl! This is a tourist destination with a bunch of restaurants on the little river a couple of blocks from the Alamo. Then a double stabbing in the nearby mall! And then a body is found floating down the river.
Wonderful place to bring the whole family!
And then a couple of weeks ago a body was dropped off!
A paralegal went missing and found dead in her car in a strip mall parking lot!
Any tea parties in your town?
