California's homicide rate in 2022 (the most recent year of available data) was 5.9 per 100,000. South Carolina's homicide rate for the same year was 11.8 per 100,000. Newsom is correct - South Carolina's homicide rate is double that of California's. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/homicide_mortality/homicide.htm
