Read full article: Distressing distinction: Highest murder total of last 2 decades for JacksonvilleDespite efforts from city leaders to shift the culture -- particularly in neighborhoods prone to violence -- Jacksonville recorded the highest murder total the city has seen over the last two decades. Family members said the 15-year-old was walking to a Burger King in Northwest Jacksonville when he was shot to death. Just four homicides were reported in the 32209 ZIP code in the last three months of the year. News4Jax has worked to find pictures of each of the year’s homicide victims, whenever possible, to put faces with the numbers.
