gruesome recent crimes here in DC

During the past 10 days of July, 2006 there has been 14 violent homicides here in DC in the most unusual places - upscale, upper income neighborhoods. 

The victims included a popular store owner slain at closing time in the Bloomingdale section, a community activist , running for DC Mayor, killed in a park near the Washington Convention Center - the same exact place he was hot and paralized several years prior, and a British citizen, Alan Senitt, an aide to former VA Governor Mark Warner, whose throat was slit while his female companion was raped in the driveway of a Georgetown mansion.

These were just simply horrific crimes and most unsettling.
