U.S. murder rate is on the rise, according to a new grim report from the FBI

U.S. murder rate is on the rise, according to a grim FBI report. The FBI estimates 22,900 murders took place in 2021.

According to a new report just released by the FBI, murders in the United States are on the rise.

The numbers are grim in this disturbing new trend that’s happening across the country.

The report from the FBI shows on hat violent crime rates are rising nationwide.

Whether it’s subway attacks, aggravated assault or even cold-blooded murder—violent crime in the United States is on the rise.

The statistics from the FBI show from 2020 to 2021 murders increased by 4.3%.

This is in addition to the murder rate that shot up significantly from 2019 to 2020 which showed that murders increased by 29.4%.

FBI officials insist the new numbers—while official— are technically estimates.

However, the 2021 statistics do not include data from the New York, or Los Angeles police departments—suggesting that the true number of murders is significantly higher.

Just over the weekend, Paul Kurtz, was killed while visiting his son at college. Authorities say a homeless man open fire in a Poughkeepsie, New York hotel killing the 53-year-old father.

Meanwhile, FBI Director Christopher Wray seemingly laid the blame on prosecutors who are soft on crime.

“I hear this from chiefs and sheriffs all the time across our country, more and more some of the worst offenders one way or another continue to find themselves back out on street.”
