No. Homicides have still raised by 15% in 2024. This is a graph of rate increase in homicides, not of homicides. It's the second derivative (see speed vs acceleration)
That's not correct. There were 15% more homicides in 2024 than in 2015 but the homicide rate went down since the peak of the 2020 crime wave.
Murder rate
- Merriam-Webster (emphasis mine)
Both police killings and murders are increasing, but police murders are increasing faster year over year than homicides are increasing.
Regardless of the administration, the US is increasingly a police state controlled by an oligarchy.
