Click here to see the map in higher resolution. Note, we discovered a mistake. The wrong value was used for Washington State in the map. The Black percentage of suspects in 34.0%.
This is the percentage of Black homicide suspects per state in the new 2022 FBI data.
The three columns represent the Black percentage of all known homicide suspects. The percentage of law enforcement agencies in the state reporting data to the FBI. The overall percentage of the population that is Black, according to the US Census Bureau.
Note: For Washington DC, there are three law enforcement agencies. However, the one that did not report most likely would have reported zero. I believe that the Washington DC, homicide data is 100% represented.
