Aren't living people usually at about 98.6 degrees no matter what the temp of the environment? If you are at room temperature, you're dead.... At least that's how I interpreted the comment. Or maybe missed something in your comment - things do have a tendency to fly right over my head .

Yet another correction/clarification brought up by another person. North Valley is not a part of Albuquerque. North Valley is a census-designated place (CDP) in Bernalillo County, New Mexico, in the United States: North Valley, New Mexico - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

While the wikipedia page is correct in identifying the CDP (which doesn't have a more appropriate name), a closer look indicates that's more a taxonomic distinction.

The CDP is anything in that jagged region that is not Albuquerque, while "north valley" includes areas both within the city limits and not. Edith & Osuna is part of Albuquerque, whereas .1mi NW, NE, SW, or SE of that intersection is part of the North Valley CDP. Still, Edith & Osuna is part of the north valley by any other definition. When a lot in the CDP gets annexed by the city (happens almost every year) it does not cease to be in the north valley.

More info on Albuquerque portions of the north valley:

Yeah, not to mention that 44-12 = 32 murders, the 12 is those killed by COAPD. In a metropolitan area of about 800000 its not that high.

just an outsiders perspective on this...

if it were 44 murders in either DC or Baltimore, MD the respective mayors would be hosting parades and holding press conferences to explain how they were "tough on crime". I don't know if I want to laugh or cry. 44 murders in ABQ for a year is shocking news, 44 murders in Baltimore or DC is January & February.

^It's not shocking news, 44 is on par (or a bit lower) than rates for recent years in ABQ.

I have a warehouse in the North Valley, just south of Montano but east of 2nd Street and it is not considered part of Albuquerque. I had to get my business license from Bernalillo County.

Like Karma, I am not sure what the Police Chief has to do with murders in Albuquerque, maybe you have been reading too many mystery crime novels?

For a city the size of Albuquerque, this number is sky high. Compare this figure to that of Seattle which, from a metro population standpoint, is four times the size. It had just 19.
