    1. Update 1

      FBI Says 2025 Brought Record Crime Drop as Murder Hit 70-Year Low

      Murder fell 18.1% to a 70-year low and violent crime posted its sharpest drop since 1936 — but the rate is disputed, the tables aren't public, and one headline claim can't be verified.

      Still open after this report

      • No independent verification is available in the file for the claim that nine of 10 fugitives on the FBI's most-wanted list have been captured.
      • The full report tables needed to test the record-decline methodology outside the Bureau remain outstanding.
