The number of all violent crimes for the city has declined from 21,799 in 1993 to 9,316 in 2010. Even with stark population decline taken into account—Baltimore went from 732,968 residents in 1993 to 620,961 in 2010—the drop in violent crime was significant, falling from 3.0 incidents per 100 residents to 1.6 incidents per 100 residents.[3]Baltimore's level of violent crime remains higher than the national average. In 2009, a total of 1,318,398 violent crimes were reported nationwide across the United States, equivalent to a rate of 0.4 incidents per 100 people.[4] In 2011, Baltimore police reported 196 homicides, the lowest number of slayings in the city since a count of 197 homicides in 1978 and far lower than the peak homicide count of 353 slayings in 1993. The drop is significant, but the homicide rate is nevertheless in the same range the city saw in the mid 1980s, when the city had another 130,000 residents. City leaders credit a sustained focus on repeat violent offenders and increased community engagement for the continued drop, reflecting a nationwide decline in crime.{{citation needed|date=August 2013}} The city recorded a total of 344 homicides in 2015, a number second only to the number recorded in 1993 when the population was 100,000 higher. This was the highest murder rate on a per capita basis ever recorded.[5][6] Policing{{Further|List of law enforcement agencies in Maryland}}In 2008, Maryland had 142 state and local law enforcement agencies.[7] Those agencies employed a total of 21,267 staff.[8] Of the total staff, 16,013 were sworn officers (defined as those with general arrest powers).[9] Police ratioIn 2008, Maryland had 283 police officers per 100,000 residents.[10] Capital punishment laws{{Main article|Capital punishment in Maryland}}Maryland's former governor, Martin O'Malley, signed a bill on May 2, 2013 to repeal the death penalty.[11] References1. ^{{cite web|title=FBI|url=https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2013/crime-in-the-u.s.-2013/rape-addendum/rape_addendum_final}} {{Maryland}}{{CrimeUS}}2. ^Maryland Crime Rates 1960 - 2010 - table listing various crimes in Maryland. 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/crime-in-the-u.s/2010/preliminary-annual-ucr-jan-dec-2010/data-tables/table-4/table-4-illinois-missouri |title=FBI – Table 4 Illinois – Missouri |publisher=Fbi.gov |accessdate=September 10, 2011}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ucrdatatool.gov/Search/Crime/State/RunCrimeOneYearofData.cfm|title=Estimated crime in 2009|publisher=FBI Uniform Crime Reporting|accessdate=March 20, 2011| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20110427022028/http://www.ucrdatatool.gov/Search/Crime/State/RunCrimeOneYearofData.cfm| archivedate= April 27, 2011 | deadurl= no}} 5. ^http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/baltimore-city/bs-md-ci-deadliest-year-20160101-story.html 6. ^{{cite news |title=Baltimore records 211th homicide, equaling total for 2014|date=August 19, 2015|publisher=The Baltimore Sun|url=http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/crime/blog/bs-md-ci-211-homicides-20150819-story.html}} 7. ^U.S. Department of Justice, Census of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies, 2008, p.15 8. ^U.S. Department of Justice, Census of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies, 2008, p.15 9. ^U.S. Department of Justice, Census of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies, 2008, p.15 10. ^U.S. Department of Justice, Census of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies, 2008, p.15 11. ^{{Cite news|last=Sutton|first=Joe|title=Maryland governor signs death penalty repeal|url=http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/02/us/maryland-death-penalty|publisher=CNN.
