If estimates are correct that about one to two percent of all suicides involves the murder of another person, when suicide rates rise, as they are rising for some populations, the murder-suicide rates will rise as well.
Se son correctos os cálculos que din que entre o 1 e o 2% dos suicidios supoñen o asasinato doutra persoa, cando as taxas de suicidio soben, como está pasando nalgúns lugares, as taxas de asasinato e suicidio tamén subirán.
