More tragedy in Hampton

[ecu1984]

Actually nationwide the clearance rate is 61% solved. But most states have a clearance rate between 70-80% solved. It’s states like Illinois with their ridiculous 36% that drops the average.

I believe most solved murders are committed by family members, spouses and known associates and
the bulk of the unsolved are committed by strangers if I am not mistaken

If they're unsolved, how can you say who they were committed by?

I believe the premise is they aren't solved because they were committed by folks outside of the victims "circle"
any investigator will tell you that
IE: traveling serial killers that travel across country snatching someone every now and then vs a domestic violence killing or a drug related kill'n

I don’t believe that to be true as homicides are the violent crimes least likely to be committed by total strangers with armed robbery being most likely. In the ones I have seen go unsolved in my career, most were gang related. It’s just in their culture not to cooperate with the investigation.

Not disagreeing and I wasn't talking about "most" murders, what I was trying to say is that "the ones that are committed by total strangers" have a higher probability of going unsolved, for example a transient passing thru town. And doesn't data support most murder victims knew they killer?

Looks like they are also going to reopen the Stephen Smith case. I don't think anything will ever come of it, but I hope the mother can get some closure at some point.

Just read that article on Fitsnews.

I am with you, not sure what they will get out of it but I hope at least some closure. If I read the article correct his family was questioned on the 2 murders which shocked the Mother

Going to be an interesting summer in SC lowcountry I assume

I’d say let’s solve one before we go opening up cold cases. But that’s just me.

Does Yellowstone count?

[2thDoc]

i hope not....

[BigBrother]

Does Yellowstone count?

yes, and so does Sons of Anarchy and other such Man Drama shows.

[Ligma]

Speaking of Yellowstone whoever made the fake date for the new season needs to be kicked in the nuts

I watch horror movies. Smith’s murder and the cover up is stranger than fiction. According to Ms. Matney, key forensic evidence disappeared, including a rape kit.

Maybe Robin Roberts will interview the grieving mother. *chortle*

The official theory of his death is ludicrous, a bad joke, and so is the legal system there.
