More people are getting away with murder. Unsolved killings reach a record high
APRIL 30, 2023
“The U.S. among the worst at solving murders in the industrialized world”
“While the rate at which murders are solved or “cleared” has been declining for decades, it has now dropped to slightly below 50% in 2020 - a new historic low. And several big cities, including Chicago, have seen the number of murder cases resulting in at least one arrest dip into the low to mid-30% range.”
