US Murder Rate Headed for Record 1-Year Drop

[Billiejeens]

The abject stupidity of the Left never ceases to amaze me.
Thank you so much for once again proving my point.
P.S. George Soros isn't "bogyman".
He's one of the most evil people in the United States, a complete traitor and should have been long gone, paying the price for his treason.

You seem to have Soros mixed up w/ Trump

You seem to be hopelessly stupid.
That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

The U.S. appears headed for the largest one-year drop in murders in history, according to a well-known crime analyst.

That's the conclusion of crime statistics expert Jeff Asher, who says new national data show killings plunging at a pace not seen in modern recordkeeping.

According to Asher's Real-Time Crime Index (RTCI), the United States is on track for the biggest single-year decline in murders ever recorded — a striking reversal after the COVID-era crime surge.

Last month, FBI Director Kash Patel said the 2025 homicide rate will be the lowest in "modern history," crediting a bureau-wide shift toward fighting violent crime.

Independent analysts such as Asher say the data strongly point in that direction.

RTCI is a large national database that compiles reported crime data from hundreds of law enforcement agencies and is updated regularly, long before official federal numbers are released.

RTCI data currently available through October show murders down nearly 20% compared with the same period in 2024.

The index's glossary notes that its murder category excludes cases such as accidental deaths and deaths caused by negligence, meaning the index aims to track "willful (nonnegligent) killings," aligning closely with standard FBI definitions.

We will see how well this trend continues.

Yet the Left will claim the murder rate is not going buy rising under Trump.

Wasn't the year before one of the largest surges upward?

So basically, cops could do their job again?

Yep.
Biden adored him some crime.
Trump ... not so much.

 

[Blisterfinger]

Trump is just riding a wave he inherited

Not the first time

Biden was shit. Most dishonest president ever

There are many reasons, some long term. For example, an aging population means older people are less likely to commit a crime.

Biden was shit. Most dishonest president ever

Yeah. Thanks for your fucked up opinion

 

[PeterPilot]

This apparently does not include those killed by the clot shot bio weapons. I guess they don't count.

 

[Blisterfinger]

Yeah. Thanks for your fucked up opinion

Yeah we got past it, things are better now.

 

[struth]

Yeah. Thanks for your fucked up opinion

It’s actually well established fact

I mean fdr lied about his health, and Clinton commited perjury, and covered for his buddy Epstein, but xiden lied about his mental health, lied about willfully retaining and disclosing classified documents, lied about his involvement with the largest criminal enterprise in Washington….

At least Clinton came clean about some of the stuff

Somehow you gloss over all of Trump’s lie

Odd huh?

 

[Hollie]

Make all forms of law enforcement more visible and proactive and this happens
Lib loons cry foul and racism.

Yes. We see this as democrats make every effort to protect their criminal illegals by trying to hamstring ICE. Leftist judges even try to sneak criminals out the back door to turn them loose,

Poor, Lush. Russia, Russia, Russia is now but, but, but, but what about Trump.
