FBI Report: Violent Crime Declines in 2022, but Carjackings on the Rise

The FBI's annual crime report reveals that murders in the United States decreased by over 6% in 2022 compared to the previous year, with preliminary data suggesting a further decline in 2023. However, the number of murders remains higher than pre-pandemic levels, with a 25% increase compared to 2019. Gun violence has become a leading cause of death for American children, with the number of children killed in shootings increasing by almost 12% in 2022. Property crimes, including auto thefts, saw a 7.1% increase. The data challenges the narrative of a continued surge in violence, but public perception often differs from reality. Experts suggest that investments in anti-violence programs have contributed to the positive trends and call for similar approaches to address property crimes.

2022 Sees 6% Drop in Killings and Decline in Violent Crime, FBI Reports

Homicides and violent crime in the United States decreased in 2022, according to FBI data. After two years of increasing killings, murder and manslaughter fell by 6.1 percent, and the overall violent crime rate declined by 1.7 percent. However, property crimes, including stolen motor vehicles and thefts, increased by 7.1 percent. The data also highlighted the continued role of guns in American violence. Experts attribute the previous surge in killings to factors such as the stress of the pandemic and the high number of guns in the country. While cities still face ongoing gun violence, there have been positive signs with declining homicides in many places. The FBI's data aligns with prior analyses and publicly available data for 2022.

Calls for Change in San Francisco After Fatal Stabbing of Cash App Founder Bob Lee.

The stabbing death of Cash App creator Bob Lee has led to criticism of San Francisco's progressive policies, with some calling the city "lawless" and "horrific." However, rates of violent offenses in the city have remained relatively steady or decreased over the last decade, except for a brief uptick in 2019. San Francisco has far fewer homicides per year compared to cities of similar size. While property crimes are up, violent crime rates are down. San Francisco ended its cash bail policy, allowing pre-trial detention only if a defendant poses an "unreasonable risk" to victim or public safety.
