Can You Get Away With Murder In Baton Rouge?

Red Stick Republican’s Rantings has a not so cheery post on the murder rate in East baton Rouge Parish. See Redstick Murder Rate Escalates

I had no idea it was this bad.

However this jumped out to me
of the 88 murders reported:
55 resulted in NO arrests (62%, not “half” as reported by The Advocate – someone grab them a calculator, please!) .

Does that not seem sort of high?
