Help Puerto Rico's violence to reduce the 995 homicides as of Nov 2011

The Issue

According to Fox News Latino A recent U.S. Department of Justice report found that police are arresting suspects for only 43 percent of the island's homicides, making it the only U.S. jurisdiction where fewer than half of all homicides lead to an arrest. The island's rate of homicide arrests has plummeted since hitting 60 percent in the late '80s and early '90s.
