From the article “List of 2008 homicides in Seattle” from the Seattle PI

selected from the list of the 28 Seattle homicides in 2008….

Allen Joplin, Jan. 4 — black killed by black

De’Che Morrison, Jan. 10 — black killed by black

Maurice “Moe” Allen Jr., Jan. 26 — black killed by black

Degene Barecha, Jan. 30 — black killed by black

Eldora Earlycutt, July 4 — black killed by black

James Paroline, July 10 — white killed by black

Troy Peters, July 22 — black killed by black

Pierre Lapoint, Aug. 5 — black killed by black

Jane Kariuki, Oct. 16 — woman of unknown race killed by black man named Christel D. Murphy

Quincy S. Coleman, Oct. 31 — black killed by black

Edward McMichael, the “Tuba Man”, Nov. 3 — white killed by multiple blacks

Nathaniel Lee Thomas, Nov. 23 — black killed by black

So by my count blacks (8% of Seattle) were the killers in at least half (that’s at least 50%) of the murders in the Seattle area in 2008. At least five of the other murderers were latinos.

The numbers are actually worse for 2009 and approach the 85% mark.

Of the 27 officers that were shot and killed by criminals in the last 20 years in King and Pierce county, 21 of them were shot by black men, even though black men make up less than 6% of the population.
