500, that’s just the reported deaths. The statement; “they shot him 9 or 15 times...” should give you a clue about their numeracy.
Chicago deaths might be between 500 to 900.could be several thousands for all we know. See that bullet riddled body? He died a natural death. That’s what happens when you mess with the wrong people. 500 - that’s just gun deaths? Whats the number from knife deaths, 3,200? Garrots, anothe 250? Bricks to the head, 127? Who knows? Let’s get some real numbers down; usually knife deaths exceed deaths by firearms.
Or is the Chicago publics works department secretly cremating unreported deaths and spreading it as road ash during the winter month. It’s Chicago, you could have another 3, 4,or 5 John Wayne Gacys operating abd new know it. How many unsolved disappearances this year? Does anybody have a clue? Homicide rate in Chicago could be 20,000 plus. No one knows.
I wouldn’t be surprised.
