Conehead Corpses Trifecta!
Not a good look for an already ugly individual:
Three shooting victims in Chicago lay undiscovered for extended periods Sunday — one for nearly 10 hours — after gunfire struck them without any accurate 911 calls being made. All three victims were shot on streets previously monitored by the city’s ShotSpotter gunfire detection network before Mayor Brandon Johnson deactivated the system in September 2023. All three died.
The delayed discoveries highlight growing concerns about shooting victims who go undetected due to a lack of 911 calls. According to HeyJackass.com, a website that independently tracks Chicago crime data, 18.5% of people shot in Chicago last year died. But among victims who received delayed first responder responses due to a lack of 911 calls, the fatality rate is nearly three times higher at 53%.
It's that final stat (the 53%) that is probably going to drive a concerted effort to re-instate ShotSpotter in some form or another.
Chicago being broke is going to play a big part in it, too. For the most part, people getting shot aren't typically innocent bystanders.
