Does anyone know the new number of violent crimes that have been committed on the AT? - Number of Murders, Rapes, Assaults, etc. I know in general the AT is a very safe place. During my years thru-hiking the ATC often said that they could count on one hand the number of murders that have happen in the ATC history.
I raise the question because over the last few years it seems like a few nuts have been getting on the trail and really ruining it for everyone else.
