St. Louis, which ranks as the nation’s murder capital for the third-straight year. The city tallied 188 murders in 2016 or a murder rate of nearly 60 per 100,000 residents, surpassing Baltimore (51.1 per 100,000), New Orleans (45.2 per 100,000), and Detroit (44.6 per 100,000). Beleaguered Chicago ranks in eighth place in per capita murders at 28 per 100,000 residents.

A decade’s worth of criminal-justice reform in Texas is now giving way to death and destruction in that state, too, with the number of murders spiraling out of control in its largest cities. Murder is up 48 percent in Dallas, 47 percent in San Antonio, 33 percent in Austin, and 25 percent in Houston from 2014 figures.

In many cities, most of the victims are people of color. In Chicago, over nine out of 10 victims were men, and nearly 90 percent of them were black. The demographics for Baltimore’s murder rates are similar
