The FBI has released its annual crime statistics report and it shows a decline in the number of violent crimes in 2022.

The country saw the number of rapes and murders drop 1.7% following a surge in 2021. Murder and manslaughter is down 6.1%. But while violent crimes are down, hate crimes are up, especially those targeting the Black and Jewish communities. There were more than 11,634 hate incidents reported in 2022. About half of those targeted the Black community. Antisemitic incidents rose 25% last year, and there was a sharp rise in the number of anti-Hispanic and anti-LGBTQ incidents. (New York Times)
