TKC BREAKING NEWS!!! KANSAS CITY MATCHES ALL-TIME HOMICIDE RECORD IN AUGUST 2018!!! POLICE CHIEF TOUTS CLEARANCE RATE AND INCREASED COMMUNITY COOPERATION!!!
The Kansas City homicide count is as bad as it has ever been.
While the KCPD top cop is entitled to tout the bright side of the equation . . . The reality is much more stark.
To wit . . .
BLOODY AUGUST WAS ONE OF THE WORST ON RECORD FOR KANSAS CITY!!!
Remember that crime experts among our blog community warned that the all-time one month record for homicides in KCMO was August 2008--when we had 20 homicides.
The latest word from local police confirms that KCMO tied that number.
Take a look:
KCPD CHIEF'S BLOG: August homicides, case progress and improved community cooperation
Deets . . .
"August was a difficult month for Kansas City, Mo., in terms of violent crime. There were 20 homicides. Each one of those victims is someone’s loved one. Someone’s friend. We are working hard to hold the people who commit these heinous acts accountable. Despite the influx of murders, our detectives have done an admirable job of investigating and solving these crimes. They have literally worked around the clock.
"We have four homicide squads, and they rotate being on call. On several occasions this month, the Homicide Unit commander had to put more than one squad on call. At one point during the weekend of Aug. 4 and 5, every single homicide squad and detective was either on call, on standby or actively working, just to handle the workload. That caused many of them to break or change their weekend plans to handle active cases. I want to publicly commend them for their hard work, which I think you’ll better understand when you read the below.
"While all these new homicides were taking place, our detectives also managed to solve three prior cases this August, including a triple murder. We’ve outlined those below, too. Year to date, we now have the highest homicide clearance rate we’ve experienced in the last six years. As of Aug. 31, we were at 74 percent."

You decide . . .
OF COURSE we did.
ReplyDeleteThe damage was actually a lot worse than that if the numbers weren't rigged.
^^Produce your facts or shut your hole.
ReplyDeleteKansas City is a dump.
ReplyDeleteSolving and prosecuting is two different things. How many of these suspects had long felony records with little or no jail time? Also, some of the homicides were domestic in nature so easily solvable. Want to impress me? Where’s the arrest of the guy that killed the construction worker over a cigarette? How about Baby Irwin? What about the two little boys killed in a drive by? Granted homicide are hard to stop with the police alone but investigations are in their control.
ReplyDelete^^Why are you asking dumb questions on here? Nobody has any kind of time for this kind of shit.
ReplyDelete^^Talking to yourself while looking in a mirror.
DeleteSly style winning !
ReplyDeleteNow this news is real momentum. The hood did not fail KCMO. The New York writer will surely be on this and painting a rosy picture with it.
ReplyDeleteClearance rate means very little. Especially when our prosecutor is as worthless as Jean Petersucker Baker.
ReplyDeleteKILLA CITY IS ADUMP GHETTO AND EVERYONE THERE SHOULD HAVE GUNS TAKIN AWAY!
ReplyDeleteClearance rate??? That doesn't mean shit until the black-on-white hate crimes of Jonathan Porter and Jeffery McDonald are solved. There should be no higher priority.
ReplyDelete^^^^+10000000
ReplyDeleteWow, sorry all these homicides were inconvenient to the detectives and they had to change plans. It was nice of the chief to commend these hard working officers.
ReplyDeleteOh, my, you came up from mommy's basement to post your clever little comment. And what do YOU for a living? Flip fries or are you a professional booger-picker? Either way you're an absolute drain on society. Go back to your paused Dungeons and Dragons game.
DeleteIn the futures, the hood rats should be required to finish all murders by 4:30pm on Friday, so the detectives don’t have to change plans. No murders are allowed from 4:30pm Friday until 830am Monday.
ReplyDelete^^^dumb. Go away.
ReplyDeleteOur coloreds let us down, we had real momentum and was moving forward to our goal of being the best at murder (because sLIE and KCPD do t care) and then they stopped, must’ve got their ebt cards reloaded so they stopped for mad dog 20 20
ReplyDelete^^^^When was the last time you were laid Maude? You sound really lonely.
