On Monday, Jan. 25, 2010, The Times launched a new version of the Homicide Report. You have arrived at the old blog.

Readers can no longer post new comments on this site, but we encourage you to join the conversation on our new site. The updated Homicide Report features an interactive map and searchable database of the more than 2,600 homicides in L.A. County since January 2007, when Times' reporter Jill Leovy first started this blog with the goal of covering each one.

Comments prior to Jan. 26 will, at least for now, remain archived here, with links provided in the new database.

If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail homicidereport@latimes.com, and we will do our best to respond.

To our beloved Son, Jerell Omarr Green.
"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, Love leaves a memory no one can steal." To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. You will be missed but NEVER forgotten. You will live on in the work we do to rid this community of violence. Rest my sweet prince.
