Be more specific. What time frame are you taking about? Can you post a link to whatever statistics this is based on?

Its a twenty percent increase;

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/06/upshot/murders-rising-crime-coronavirus.html

and the last decade has seen some of the lowest murder rates on record.

http://www.disastercenter.com/crime/uscrime.htm

This isnt some massive increase nor is it something that should be unexpected, its a statistical anomaly. And on a positive note, overall crime has gone down.

Police morale waning due to defundments, seriously don't vote these loony politicians back in, a defunded police or no police at all invites vigilantes and extremist militia enforcement

It's probably due to more murders occurring.

Glad to have helped.

The crime rate is still less than it was ten years ago. A small bump is an anomaly.
