Sullivan, " more than 26,000 Americans were murdered, and six million violent crimes were committed with young men and minorities falling victim most frequently". Sullivan also reported that about one in every 27 black men, compared to one in every 205 white men, died violently also 1 in 117 black women met a untimely end as compared to white women which only 1 in 496 were killed due to violent crimes.
