The number of homicides is falling dramatically nationwide.
In 2024, murders fell by at least 14% across the U.S., according to analyses by the data firm AH Datalytics and the Council on Criminal Justice, a nonpartisan think tank. Official data from the FBI goes only through 2023 but shows similar drops. Early analyses from AH Datalytics suggest the drop will be even bigger in 2025.
I hate titles like this that dangle a fact but don’t reveal it. Clickbait, whether the info is true or not.
Yeah, I just instinctively downvote this kind of bullshit.
