    That last link is so upsetting. Not just because of the racial composition, but also because of the assailant/victim ratio being 25/220, which means an average of 11 victims per assailant.

      9, not 11. But that is still significant.

      The homicide clearance rate in Chicago is at or under 50% and approximately 50% of those identified as assailants had no charges filed against them. This implies the assailant figures may be 4x under represented.
