Martial law

There were approximately 71 murders in Chicago in the last 90 days, assuming the reporting period of August 25, 2025, and a calculation of 254 murders so far in 2025 divided by the number of days in a year to get the daily average, then multiplied by 90. [1, 2]  

Here's how that figure was reached: [1]  

1. Identify the yearly homicide number: In 2025, Chicago has had 254 people slain as of August 18, 2025, according to Chicago Tribune. 

2. Estimate the number of days in 2025: As of August 18, 2025, there have been approximately 230 days in the year (31+28+31+30+31+30+31+18). 

3. Calculate the daily average: 254 homicides / 230 days = approximately 1.10 murders per day. 

4. Calculate the number of murders in the last 90 days: 1.10 murders/day * 90 days = 99 murders. 

Note: This is a projected figure based on the available data and the daily average. For the most precise and up-to-date information, please refer to official sources like the Chicago Police Department or the Chicago Tribune's tracking. [1]
