.... only not quite as many as before.
"The number of homicides in Scotland has fallen to its lowest level on record.
In the year to the end of March 2013, there were 62 killings - a fall of a third compared with the total for the previous 12 months.
Police have identified an accused person in all but one of the cases, which include murders and culpable homicides.
The figures included cases which have yet to be dealt with by the court system.
More than 75% of the killings took place in a domestic setting and about half of the victims were killed by an acquaintance.
Of the accused, 43% were under the influence of drink or drugs."
Anybody feel safer? |
