I wonder how much the advances in technology and forensics have done to lower the crime rate.

This is probably a significant factor, people are less likely to commit crimes that get them locked-up for an entire lifetime if they think they'll get caught.  

Murder is generally not a calculated crime, most murders are committed "in the heath of the moment".

I think that there are some people who would be very surprised at the drop of murder in the last 25 years.

Any idea why it increases so massively 1902-1906/7?
