Homicide 2006
A death inflicted by another person with explicit or implicit intent to harm. A homicide is not necessarily a murder. The person responsible for causing the injuries may be charged in connection with the death or the prosecuting attorney may decline to file charges in certain circumstances. During 2006, there
were 116 deaths in Hamilton County which were ruled homicides, And a
record breaking 89 homicides in the city of Cincinnati which continues a disturbing upward trend in homicide in Cincinnati
and Hamilton County. That number includes
several homicides in which the homicidal violence occurred in another county but
the victim died in Hamilton County, usually following transport into the
county for emergency medical treatment, a number comparable to that seen in previous years.
