The STG area has one occasionally but it's relatively rare. I think that shithole at the corner of S Harrells Ferry and O'Neal is in STG and they had a double homicide back there earlier this year.


I looked at all the homicides in StG dating back to Jan. 1, 2017. In nearly 3 years, there have been all of 6 homicides in the StG area. 2 in 2017, 1 in 2018 and 3 so far in 2019.

One of those in 2019 is from when the kid shot the stepdad that was abusing him. So, while it counts, it isn't the same.

Same I think. Not too far from the Triple S. It's definitely a shithole area.

There have been 22 homicides since the beginning of October. BRPD has investigated 66 total for the year. So a third have happened in the last 6-7 weeks.

That’s interesting, usually this shite calms down when it gets colder rather than accelerating.

In theory yet, but it may not be quite cold enough. Plus, the thugs now have a legit reason to wear the dark hoodies

Our local thugs have been on a tear lately. There has to be some kind of turf war going on or something.

Another one is the crazy kid who purposely rammed his truck into a lady's car and killed her on Siegen/Perkins.

Either price of drugs going down and the only way to make money is rob your seller or buyer.

They know who deals or does something illegal where they have something of value. They know if they shoot that person he is not calling the 5-0 popo etc.

The judges are being real tolerant, less chance of being caught, less chance of being convicted, and the reward is worth or exceeds the risk.

I watched the news last night. Police said they are going to talk to the neighbors so I expect all this to be buttoned up shortly.

HEY!

Update the thread, assblood! I saw Better Together making a big deal that they "annexed" 100 properties this weekend. Let's make sure they know where they're going.

Great stats to use in support of your legal fundraising. You haven't sent the little leaguers out at intersections shaking cans yet??

Not sure it is if it was self-defense.

I encourage you to google St George posts from this forum and read up on it. It is absolutely fascinating to me.

I went on my honeymoon the weekend of the vote and it was first thing I checked when I got home
