- valuearb 10y agoIs it hat a conviction rate, or they actually found the murderer? Given some convictions are false.
- Zigurd 10y agoThat's a great question. It could be that the police arrested a suspect who either confess or was tried. Therefore it probably includes bad convictions. I doubt the stats get revised downward when convictions are reversed. For that matter, some confessions are later reversed.
