Good grief, and I thought it was bad in NZ. That's 20 times as many murders per year for almost half as many people. Almost 30 times the murder rate per capita. nationmaster.com <In Jamaica .... The island of 2.7 million people has had more than 1,400 murders so far this year ... In Trinidad and Tobago, the violent-death toll is edging toward a record 300 and a surge in kidnappings plagues the twin-island nation. ... ... crime is foremost on the mind of every citizen, every business person and every investor in the nation of 1.3 million. "Trinidad and Tobago can hang its head in shame on a count of over 280 murders, over 160 kidnappings, and over 11,300 serious reported crimes to date for 2005," said Galt, president of the American Chamber of Commerce of Trinidad and Tobago.> TT has 4 times NZ's murders with a third the population. 12 times as many murders per person. That's insane. Brazil has some ridiculous number of murders too. Mqurice
