Even in the late 70s Jackson was averaging around 20s/100K which places the total number of homicides in the 30s or 2/3 homicides per month. 1980 ended in the low 40s which is when the city reached it's peak population.

Black on black crime was not news worthy when I first moved here. <br /><br />It has moved slightly east from West Street once the houses and apartments closer to the I-55 became old and outdated and cheaper to own or rent.<br /><br />Whether it's Chicago or Jackson, crime is where you find the highest concentration of poverty. And," the poor get children". We've made sure that having more children born into poverty is guaranteed. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-40923319645926727452019-04-30T07:46:14.377-05:002019-04-30T07:46:14.377-05:00There is no a thing the mayor, police chief or any...There is no a thing the mayor, police chief or anyone else can do about this other than the people themselves.

Two, like other crime statistics provided in the past, you could only see it whenever a new one was updated. It wasn't cumulative. It didn't show years of data.<br /><br />And they didn't rip off WLBT entirely. The CL only shows 32 homicides for the year. It's 33.
