Across neighborhoods and time windows, the intra-racial results keep appearing at rates that undercut common assumptions about who poses the greatest threat.
Key Takeaways
- In 2019, FBI reports 79 Asian homicide victims, 94% (74) killed by Asian offenders.
- In 2019, of the 7,484 Black murder victims reported in the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, 6,425 (85.9%) were killed by Black offenders.
