Violent Halifax Map 2007 

We've combed through the city police archives and our own records to produce this shocking map of violent crimes in 2007.

Violent crimes which were reported to police are represented with blue push-pin icons. The unreported crimes we've learned about are represented in red. Click on the markers for a detailed description of the crime.

The map does not include, nor can it, the calls to police who arrive and manipulate the scene so they do not issue incident report numbers which creates a false stats-the blues are much higher. Peter Smelly and SKank Beazley have been creating false stats especially from visibly vulnerable communities, if the victim is known to police or if the one or more parties involved are black for as long as I have been made aware of this type of corruption. The complaints to Police Commission and Nadine Cooper Mont the chair of the NSPC are also being manipulated to not reflect the true pathology of our police dept top down. By not doing public investigations into public complaints it creates a false sense of safety and order in our city that is just not true or real. Why is there this much crime when we have so many police?


Because quality in policing is severely lacking in the HRM, Skank and Smelly are still fooling the kool-aid drinkers with the quantity of policing.

One question...how does Coast know about the unreported ones....unless they went door to door the red markers are as false as the blue...
