Clearance rates for homicide vary significantly across different locations, with Michigan and Honolulu having rates as low as 17% and 18% respectively. The clearance rate can also vary by neighborhood, with locations like Tulane having a high clearance rate of 90% for murder cases near the auditorium, while areas like the seventh ward might have rates as low as 10-15%. This variation presents a significant challenge in modern society. Deterrence, a key concept in addressing crime, is largely influenced by the certainty of punishment, making it a crucial factor in reducing crime rates.
