Misleading statements about crime and public safety are already proliferating in this election cycle. As November draws closer, misinformation is likely to intensify. That makes it even more important to take a close look at what the best and most recent crime data tells us. One major trend is becoming clear: violent crime dropped in 2021 and 2022 — and then declined again, significantly, in 2023. We’ll have to wait until the fall for final government data to confirm this trend. Until then, here’s what we know, how we know it, and what it means — drawing on both city data and the most recent information from the FBI.

CITY-LEVEL DATA SHOWS DECLINES IN VIOLENT CRIME

City-level crime reports are the best places to look for up-to-the-minute crime data. Combining enough city-level crime data can, in turn, approximate national trends. Two research teams have used this approach to give a sense of crime in 2023. Both show sharp declines in violent crime.

• Drawing on data from 38 cities across the country, the Council on Criminal Justice reported that homicide declined by 10% in 2023. It also noted declines in assaults, gun assaults, burglary, and larceny, but a sharp spike in motor vehicle thefts.

• Similarly, Jeff Asher, a researcher and expert in data on crime and public safety, studied murder data from 175 cities and found a 7% decline in murders through December 7, 2023, compared to 2022. These cities are from across the country and include jurisdictions led by Republicans and Democrats alike.

A murder decline of this magnitude would be historic; the sharpest one-year drop on record occurred in 1996 when the number of murders nationwide fell by a little more than 9% compared to 1995.

Crime trends in the largest cities tend to grab headlines and help shape our understanding of national developments. That makes careful examination of data from these cities especially important. Broadly, the news about murder trends from 2022 to 2023 is encouraging. There were 100 fewer murders in Philadelphia in 2023 compared to 2022, a decline of roughly 20%. In Baltimore, murders also declined by roughly 20%, falling below 300 for the first time since 2014. Similarly, New York City saw nearly 50 fewer homicides, a drop of roughly 11%.

Notable on their own, these declines also undercut politicized claims that crime is rising in “blue cities.” On the contrary, the data demonstrates that Democratic-led cities, which also happen to be some of the nation’s most populous, follow and in some cases lead the national trend toward decreasing violence.

Of course, this overall trend is not universal, and causes for concern remain. Just as all available police data points to a decline in murders, those same sources also indicate an increase in motor vehicle thefts. Some cities, like Washington, DC, also saw violence continue to surge in 2023. Last, but of vital importance, even with these declines, murder rates likely remain above 2019 levels nationally and in most cities.

PRELIMINARY NATIONAL DATA FROM THE FBI CONFIRMS FALLING VIOLENT CRIME

On March 18, the FBI released preliminary quarterly crime data for 2023. Intended to supplement the FBI’s annual fall report on nationwide crime trends, these quarterly reports offer an early but incomplete look at crime data from a smaller group of police agencies than represented in final annual reports. The latest release covers more than 80% of the population — a very robust sample, even if there are errors in the city-level data that should be corrected before the FBI releases final year-end data in the fall.

The broad trend matches what researchers have observed in collections of city data about crime trends between 2022 and 2023. Specifically, the FBI’s report shows remarkable declines in murder (down 13.2%), violent crime (down 5.7%), and property crime (down 4.3%). Of the seven major offenses tracked by the FBI, the report shows an increase only in motor vehicle theft (up 10.7%).

UNDERSTANDING COMMON CRITICISMS OF CRIME DATA

The available data indicates that violence, especially lethal violence, dropped in 2023. Skeptics might still point to reasons to question the apparent decline in crime. For one, crime data generally includes only offenses reported to police. Could crime reporting have dropped, and crime itself remained static? One problem with this theory is immediately evident. Murder is almost always reported to the police. And it appears to have fallen at a rapid, potentially record-setting pace in 2023.

As for crimes other than murder, we’ll have to wait until fall to test the possibility of underreporting. That’s when the National Criminal Victimization Survey (NCVS), an analysis by the Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics that studies people’s experiences with nonlethal crime, will release its 2023 data. Unfortunately, data quality issues make it difficult to draw firm conclusions from the NCVS’s most recent releases.

Last, skeptics might point to the FBI’s recent transition to a new crime reporting system, which led to relatively few police agencies providing data for the bureau’s 2021 crime report, as another weak spot in recent crime data. But agency reporting has improved since 2021, and the FBI took other steps to ensure a more complete report in 2022. The next report, covering 2023, will likely mark another improvement.

• • •

Crime data is far from perfect. But the FBI’s data is improving in both quality and frequency of reporting, and independent research allows us to double-check the bureau’s work as that process continues. Putting the two pieces together, a clear picture is emerging, one that shows significant decreases in violent crime in recent years.

Rapidly changing crime trends underscore the value of having crime data that is timely and reliable. Policymakers and leaders in civil society should continue to work toward realizing that goal.

hello friend!! i was wondering since you both read and write a lot if you had any recs for books that are narrated by death?

also! how is your original novel writing going? you posted a snippet to tumblr once of the opening scene i think and i still think about it because your writing was so descriptive and lush

friend!! please accept my apologies in this delayed answering, your message was so kind that every time I thought about it I got overwhelmed 🥰

Okay books narrated by death! The only one I’ve read is The Book Thief by Markus Zusak and it is gorgeous, I was so obsessed with it as a kid however it is about wwii in germany so ymmv.

however! I did some research and Mort by Terry Pratchett comes highly recommended (it is part of discworld). I enjoy Pratchett, he’s very fun. Death is also a big character in the Sandman Comics by N*il G*iman. I do not enjoy G*iman but ymmv!

I also am duty bound to recommend In the Woods by Tana French, a gorgeous, atmospheric murder mystery that is deeply spooky and unsettling. Death is not the narrator…but I do believe it is a character (many many interpretations!)

I feel quite bad sending you away with like 3 recs so here’s what I’ve been reading

- Exordia by Seth Dickinson - I’m not done with this yet but so far it’s like, what if every sci fi first contact military propaganda action movie…got lost and ended up being about the moral quandary of the trolley problem, Kurdistan, pink noise, and prime numbers? what if an author who hates imperialism and loves math decided to write a book length call out of Barack Obama’s drone warfare program with body horror? what if you were a cringe fail elder millennial in nyc that rescued a sexy alien with 8 snake heads instead of only one and every time you physically touched it was a sex scene? And this made the savior of the world? this book is for: homestuck fans, people who were in tragic situationships with their wife and their bestie, pilots, people who like their sci fi hard

- Giovanni’s Room by James Baldwin - okay if you haven’t read this stop everything and read it immediately. This book is for: tragedy lovers!!!! Gay people!!!!! Francophiles. Marxists. People who were into the social network rpf in 2013 and read that one fanfic where Andrew Garfield and Jesse Eisenberg get cast in a Giovanni’s Room adaption and finally fuck. Anyway. Earlier this year (or possibly last year?) I read a memoir about toxic masculinity and how it demands emotional alienation of the self and I was like “okay. I mean. Obviously?” And buddy. Baldwin says more about this topic in chapter one than that author did in his whole book. And it’s sooooooooooo beautiful god like every paragraph has a life ending sentence.

- the Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai - the year is 1985 and the location is Boystown, the Chicago gayborhood. Our hero? Yale, art lover, is trying to pull off an insane deal at work and survive the devastation of the AIDs epidemic. But actually the year is 2015 and our heroine is Fiona, Yale’s best friend, who travels to Paris to track down her estranged daughter and then her emotional repression stops working! I know this book sounds devastating and it REALLY is, like at one point I was sobbing so hard my husband got really worried and I was like, no, it’s all good, thumbs up! But ALSO this book is very funny and very joyful. This book is for: people who love to laugh. People who love to cry. Art lovers. People who love emotionally messy families.

- I Have Some Questions For You by Rebecca Makkai - a film studies professor & podcaster returns to her elite high school boarding school 20 years after graduating and find herself getting sucked into investigating the murder of her junior year roommate, who was murdered senior year and is now the internet’s favorite cold case. Please note this book is a response to #MeToo. This book is for: people who love True Crime but are also critical of it. People who love twitter drama. People who were losers in high school. People who devotedly at watch YouTube essays. Hot divorcées. Angry women.

I have also read a lot of excellent non fiction, the Murderbot diaries (just read themmmmm! Worth it), the entire Kate Daniels series (again.), the new SJM book, and some mid to bad books.

#answered #ummide #also to answer your question I figured out why my old draft wasn’t working. decided to start over. worth it #thanks so much for asking 🥺#I did do the whole normal epic fantasy thing where I wrote it like that. and now I have decided to approach it like #it’s a true crime investigation memoir that uncovers more than Luka bargained for. I’m loving it.#💜💜💜💜#the new SJM book is. her tortured poets department. which really could mean anything.

this man is truly a masterclass in how not to act when you find yourself suddenly accused of the murder you thought you had oh so cleverly planned and gotten away with

also a masterclass in how not get people on your side and in fact actually make them actively root for you to get tossed in jail as well as question your friendship with your bandmate because you literally are such a dick wtf

#ace attorney #also loudly exclaiming that the police department you work in is the international crimes one for all you ignorant losers out there #after it was dramatically established that the victim was an undercover interpol agent working on an international criminal investigation #is not helping you distance yourself from the victim and obfuscate whatever motive you had for all this #just saying

"DETECTIVES HELD ACCUSED AT DEPOT," Montreal Gazette. October 15, 1913. Page 5. ---- Man Was Found Guilty of Obtaining Cloth Under False Pretences ---- POLICE FOLLOWED PARCEL ---- Telephoned Local Firm, Giving Name of Out-of-Town Customer His Second Offence ---- Joseph Lafontaine, 35 years of age, having, no address in this city, was found guilty by Judge Choquet yesterday afternoon in the Court of Sessions, of having obtained goods under false pretenses.

The offense with which Lafontaine was charged was the old telephone order game where the offender calls up a business house and using the name of a well-known person, whom he knows to be a customer of the house, orders a quantity of goods for immediate delivery. Sometimes the schemer lots the goods be taken to the very door of the address given, the rightful residence or business place of the man whose name was used, where he intercepts the messenger, forges the signature to the receipt accompanying the goods and, sending the messenger away, goes off with the goods, leaving no trace. Sometimes he has the goods delivered to a place designated in the phone call and sometimes he has them sent to the parcel delivery of a railway station which was the case in the offense of which the prisoner was found guilty.

The specific case was of having obtained cloth to the value of about $50 from Mark, Fisher Sons and Company, Limited, on September 15th, he being apprehended, however, before he got very far away with the goods. On Monday, September 15th, a phone call was received at the Mark, Fisher offices, the person who had called up saying that he was a Mг. Rattelle and saying that he requested material for several suits sent to the parcel checking office of the Grand -Trunk Railway. The firm was suspicious and called the Detective Bureau. Detectives Crowthers and Fafard were sent down and they advised that a parcel be made up and sent to the station to trap the man if he contemplated fraud. A parcel was consequently made up and sent to the station after which the two detectives ☐ went down and watched. A form had been made out to which the clerk was asked to obtain the signature of the man who asked for the parcel. Lafontaine soon appeared and obtained the parcel, signing the name of Mr. Rattelle to the form. As he was leaving the station the detectives accosted him and asked him where he was going with the parcel. He replied that he was going to St. Anne de Bellevue and told them that he was in a hurry.

They informed him that they were anxious to find out how he had obtained the goods and why, if he was going to St. Anne de Bellevue, he was leaving the station. They produced the signed form which they had obtained from the clerk and told him they knew the signature affixed to it was not his own. Lafontaine then stated that he had been sent for the parcel by Mr. Rattelle who was unable to come for it. This explanation did not satisfy the two detectives and they took the man and goods to the Detective Office where, upon looking up his record, it was found that he had been arrested before on a similar charge.

The man's guilt was made clear to the court and after he had taken the witness box in his own behalf and had admitted that he had been up before for the same offence he was found guilty by Judge Choquet and was sent back to await sentence on Thursday.

A defendant charged in connection with the Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol has been indicted on charges of conspiring with a second man to kill the FBI agents investigating him, the Department of Justice said on Friday.

Edward Kelley, the 33-year-old Jan. 6 defendant, and Austin Carter, 26, are both charged in a criminal complaint with conspiracy, retaliating against a federal official, solicitation of a crime of violence and making threats across state lines.

"Today's allegations that individuals sought to attack and hurt or kill FBI personnel are sickening. FBI employees honorably perform their duties protecting the American public and upholding the Constitution and they should be able to execute these duties without threats of violence," FBI Director Christopher Wray said in a written statement.

Both men were ordered detained during an initial court appearance on Friday in U.S. District Court in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Josh Hedrick, an attorney representing Carter, told Reuters in an email that "Mr. Carter maintains his innocence and we look forward to zealously defending him against these allegations." Kelley's attorney could not be reached for comment by Reuters on Friday evening.

Prosecutors say Kelley and Carter obtained a list of federal agents taking part in the investigation into Kelley and discussed plans to kill them with a cooperating witness. The cooperating witness was not identified in the court papers.

The two men are also accused of discussing with the cooperating witness a possible attack on the FBI's field office in Knoxville.

Kelley is among hundreds of defendants who have been charged in connection with the violent Jan. 6 protests at the U.S. Capitol as Congress met to certify President Joe Biden's 2020 election victory over incumbent Donald Trump.

He is charged with physically assaulting a U.S. Capitol police officer at the capitol and breaking a window of the building to gain entry. Kelley has pleaded not guilty to those charges.
