Spin? What's that? This is just Chicago Media playing defense for their friends in government. Chicago nears 700 homicides in 2020, a milestone reached just one other time since 1998
They try to say that 2016 was even more of the sh*t show, but they do cough up the truth eventaully
As of Thursday evening, 694 deaths in Chicago have been ruled homicides, according to a Sun-Times analysis of Cook County medical examiner’s office data. The city had 680 murders by this time in 2016, according to Chicago Police Department statistics.
And as Second City Cop has noted, the "official statistics" are a bit questionable.
UPDATE: Whichever Groot apologist keeps chiming-in in the comments about "it's only 681, ISP has highway killings" you must be new around here. It doesn't get reported by investigative agency. The City lies or delays reporting via "death investigations" etc.
HeyJackass.com has been the ONLY trusted source of numbers here for years.
Click the HeyJackass! link for the current numbers. Chicago hit the magic 700 number on either the 13th or the 14th of November.
But back to the story linked at the top... Chicago did set one interesting record this year.
This year, Chicago saw its most violent day in 60 years, with 18 murders recorded on May 31.
Even the political appointee has started to point fingers. Not that anything will come of it.
“At the end of the day, our endgame strategy is to arrest violent felons, but if violent felons are getting right out of jail, we need cooperation and collaboration with other partners within the criminal justice system,” [CPD Supt. David] Brown
Translation: The State's Attorney needs to do her job.
