Only 62% of murders are cleared.

38% get away with it.

I suspect a lot the 38% unsolved are uncooperative ghetto trash related, gang related, etc.

[Drew68]

38% get away with it.

In some high-crime areas like Chicago, it's closer to 70%. Nobody will talk to the police.

Oh my. Didn’t know that.

Right. And when the ones who get away with it by buying the Judge and Prosecutor like AustinHarrouff from Florida the percentage of those getting away is higher.

Don’t forget about “missing”. They’re likely dead but not counted as murders.

I wonder how many heroin OD’s, over 50 years, have been trafficked humans used for prostitution, then given OD shots when aged out...

And those caught often leave a trail Stevie Wonder could follow, or someone who knows flat out tells the cops whodunit.

[Labyrinthos]

My guess is that the vast majority of unsolved murders involve gangbangers, where the witnesses “ain’t know nut’in.”
