Operation Anvil

Latest homicide map is linked here.

Overall goal: explain why the Americas have such low rates of successfully prosecuted murder compared to EU and APAC.



And why - as murder rates declining - are solved murder rates declining in the United States?

For a quick summary of the state of homicide within the United States:

  • http://gritsforbreakfast.blogspot.com/2010/06/homicide-clearance-rates-on-decline.html
  • http://anepigone.blogspot.com/2013/01/rates-of-unsolved-murder-by-state.html


To start: where are the murders?

Latest homicide map is linked here.

Next, I want to map stories to these cities. Later, add more data sources (eg, unsolved murder data).

America Versus America

Before Mexico extradited Joaquin Guzman ( Department of State profile ) to Brooklyn on the final day of the Obama Administration, an assassin murdered the 37 year old Mexican judge assigned to Guzman's case . CCTV captured the point blank assassination: a young judge shot in the back of the head while jogging across the street ( YouTube ). Once in Brooklyn, the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York described Guzman's ability to influence politicians, judges, police, and militaries across the world, presented eleven exhibits, and petitioned New York's Eastern District court to detain Guzman before trial ( pdf ): "In sum, it is difficult to imagine another person with a greater risk of fleeing prosecution than Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera." With good reason. Guzman twice escaped maximum security prison. And the Brooklyn US Attorney wants Guzman to forfeit $14 billion. Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman  escaped authorities and ...

Blue Magic

Southern Command's boss, Marine John Kelly, stepped down Friday, 1/8/2016 ( CSPAN ). He gave his final press conference at the Pentagon. Kelly toured Iraq and lost a son to combat i n  Sangin, Afghanistan,  Nov. 9, 2010.  The man put skin in the game for USA and lost.

UAV. Kelly's opening statement emphasized the "great" 2...

DRAFT : #ChicagoIguala

#ChicagoIguala ( twitter ) refers to the trade corridor connecting two battlefields in the narcotics wars - one in Mexico. One in Chicago. A unique attribute of markets along the corridor is the frequency of violence, shooting, and unsolved murder. From that perspective, #ChicagoIguala is shorthand for a multi-year, transcontinental murder mystery involving 100s of thousands of Americans. It's also a symbol for state complicity and corruption in extrajudicial killing, kidnapping and disappearances. It's code for "a blackout in our history". Document storage at Juarez, MX PD. As see in Narcocultura . A road map or way finding tool (of sorts) to American security. I hypothesize that insecurity and security are decided in these towns . These are selected by two different methodologies right now: US comes from FBI Table 6 2014 and is sorted for homicides per capita per square mile - a density of homicide metric ( source ) pan American data comes from Seguridad ...
