This site is to chronicle the homicides that occur in Houston, Texas. Most information will be gathered from the Houston Chronicle at this site. I will also include other homicides that were not cited in the Houston Chronicle.
The idea behind this site is to create a visual representation of where homicides occur in Houston. Recently violent crimes has decreased in Houston but the homicide rate has increased. As David Simon showed in his journalistic novel, Homicide: A Year on the Killing Street, police can turn an aggravated assault into battery or get a witness to doubt that the robber had a gun. Murders are different because you cannot hide a body after it has been found, although HPD tries.
