Digits of the day:
223 out of 480 murders
Chicago's police force is solving fewer and fewer murder cases. Experts say it's because the police department is devoting more resources to beat cops on the street at the expense of detectives. Last year, Chicago police had 480 murder cases and solved 223 murders that had been committed in 2015 or before. That yields a "clearance rate" of 46 percent. The national average is 63 percent. The force's credibility gap isn't helping either. Replies: There have been no replies.
