I don't believe that any of us has seen an "official" statistic pertaining to "knife-related killings in the Metropolis" in 1888. I know that I certainly have not. And if such a statistic did exist, I seriously doubt that it would include the torsos, Millwood, et al.

You have suggested that something "stinks", and that you are somewhat inclined to believe that it may be the "official" statistics.
What stinks is the inability of many around here to bookmark the statistics once they have been presented. And what really stinks - to high heaven, in fact - is the inability of the same to contextualize the statistics.
Gareth (Sam Flynn) has suggested that the statistics should be viewed with "extreme caution". Nonsense!
They are what they are. They simply need to be viewed in the appropriate context.
