Actually, it's still not my statistic. I saw it on Discovery. It's theirs and I did not see the source. And the exact quote was: Children under age five are eight times more likely to be murdered in the US than any other industrialized country. Perhaps by including five year olds the stats worsen. Too, children four and under are MORE THAN Four times more likely to be murdered in the US.
