The FBI classifies violent crimes as those involving force or the threat of force. Violent crime encompasses four specific offenses: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Each year, millions of people suffer the impacts of violent crime. Innocent people are victimized by a justice system that cares more about political correctness than punishing the criminals who harm them and their families. This book looks at the victims of violent crime in Manhattan, Chicago and the District of Columbia.
