Thirty one murders in less than two months. More than one person killed every two days. Did anyone calculate the number of murders from October first to now? It surely is higher than the record set in 2015. And based on the current trend the country will experience at least 20 more murders before elections. Is it fair to the families of murdered victims when the police spokesman makes statements at the murder scene and even over the dead bodies that the victim was most likely involved in crime: drugs, gangs or some other illegal activity. But years go by and they can never tell the family who committed the murder. So lacking compassion. So unprofessional. Preach to the living, not to the dead.
