The Bahamas: One Murder Every Three Days

The murder count so far this year is up 50 percent over the same period last year with the country recording a murder every three days on average.

Yesterday, the murder count stood at 30 — 10 more murders than were recorded this same time last year, according to a local newspaper’s records.

Additionally, several bodies were found this year, which could potentially push the murder count even higher if they are classified as murders.

So far, 11 murders have been recorded in March, seven in February and 12 in January.
