Can you find me one case from 50 years ago where a child intentionally murdered an infant?

I will look and I am sure I can find more than one.

Until then, check out this chart from the Department of Justice. It shows that the rate of infanticide stayed relatively stable from 1976 through 2002.

One more thing. Notice the rate. It is per 100,000 population. For example, 2 per 100,000. The actual numbers range from around 500 to 800 murders per year. I agree it is a horrible crime but when looked at it terms of the total US population, it is hardly epidemic.

I'm not looking to start a racial war. Posting something that shows blacks are more prone to be a homocide victim isn't going to help this discussion. Why not ask for it to be removed.

That link Link

doesn't seem to deal with children killing children. It covers parents killing children.

It does mention 'other family' but from reading the page it looks like it deals with adults.
