UK Murder Statistics
For some reason the UK
government are not very forthcoming on providing these
statistics, plus we have the battle of recorded crime versus
reported crime and the ambiguity of the British crime Survey.
if you find a reliable source we would love to know.
In 2002, 16,110 people were murdered in
the USA. / In 1999 23,000 were killed in Colombia.
