Why do people have such little regard for other’s lives?  She was someones mother and grandmother. I love my mother with all my heart and I would be devastated if something like this happened to her.

Of course the gossip blogs are saying that this is a retaliation on Syko Bob, but that has yet to be confirmed. If that is the truth, his mother had nothing to do with the beef that he was in. Why would you take out your anger on someones mother?

Rest In Peace to Syko Bob’s Mom. do you think they will allow him to go to her funeral supervised?

 

Police Make Arrest In BTK Murders

Which Florida City Made The List With Highest Murder Rates In U.S.

There’s lots to love about the Sunshine State, but we’re also notorious for the craziest crimes. One Florida city even ranked in the top 15 for highest murder rates in America. It’s not really a list we love to see Florida on, but we can’t say we’re not surprised with all the insane stuff that happens here.

Our friends at neighboorhoodscout.com ranked the top 30 cities in the country with the highest murder rates per 1,000 residents. They condensed their research by including cities with 25,000 or more people. They collected their data by the number of murders reported to the FBI to have occurred in each city, and the population of each city. The city population data comes straight from the US Bureau of the Census at the time of each analysis. For instance, the 2022 list population uses 2020 population figures. The 2021 list uses 2019 figures, and so forth.

There were 14 new cities making the list this year. “The newcomer on this list with the highest murder rate is Saginaw, MI. The number of murders in Saginaw more than doubled from the previous year.” Thankfully (and surprisingly) only one Florida city was ranked in the research.

Here’s the top 15 cities with the highest murder rate. Click here to see the full list.
