many murderers in TX?
I don't think we matched Washington DC in that category yet. This is a big state, some of the large cities have abysmal support systems, and it's a major conduit for drug traffic. I really don't know how the rate stacks up on a per-capita basis. It's probably low on a per-square-mile basis. The frontier attitude is still prevalent too.

e-Bill,

From what I have found, Texas ranks number two in population, but # 17 in violent crime,(not Y2k stats), I saw somewhere even that Texas was not # one in death row inmates in 1995 but Texas does lead the way in carrying out the death sentence. And if you will look, most of those being carried out now, were for crimes committed in the 70s-80s and may be some in the early 90s.
