Baltimore Police Lower May Homicide Count To 42

Baltimore police have lowered the city's homicide count for the month of May to 42.

The department announced Thursday that after a review of a fatal shooting on May 7, detectives found it to be justified. Police say this lowers the homicide count for the month from 43.

The change makes May the city's deadliest month since August 1990, when there were also 42 homicides.

A homocide is a killing of a human being by a human being, so even if it was justified, it's still a homocide.

My guess would be the last white guy 9:38. Sounds to me like the community is blaming martin.

What FOP hack wrote this headline?
The Baltimore police didn't "lower" any rate and 42 more mostly hoodlums
won't be terrorizing families anymore.

9:36 is correct. Article should state the murder rate was lowered when a homicide was deemed to be justified.....
4:20-It's not the FOP who are aware of the difference between a homicide and a murder. The headline is a result of "journalists" who are a product of the dumbed down US "education" system.
If you are going to report crime at the very least know what the pertinent terms mean.

4:20 educate yourself the F.O.P. has nothing to do with stats or any thing to do with the daily operations of a department. The F.O.P. is a fraternal organization that gives to numerous charities outside of law enforcement. They also ensure that L.E.O.B.R. is adhered to when needed. They are there to help fellow officers in need. Libtard mouth breather.
