Before anyone goes off and murders a hated family member just realize that most of those sorts of murders get solved. It's the drive-by, gangland sort of shit that goes unsolved.
If you murder your wife they will catch you.
edit: and it's pretty funny they call a 58% clearance rate "nearly half go unsolved" and laud a 60% clearance rate in another unidentified country. Fucking NYT. Yes our police are a problem but you don't have to make them look worse than they are.
Absolutely, the NYT is way too hard on cops. You said it, brother!
OK, sure. But this is just "America Bad! Australia Good!"
Yeah, there are also some very bad ways to raise clearance rate, just look at Japan. The premises are very flawed
What does Japan do to clear murders you're talking about?
You don't take on difficult cases, and you ensure that someone is always imprisoned for the cases you take on
I don't know anything about their system but yeah, if they do that they will clear a lot of cases.
