(Wisconsin Radio Network) End Domestic Abuse Wisconsin has released its annual homicide report.

According to the Wisconsin Radio Network, Executive Director Monique Minkens says 110 people lost their lives to domestic violence in 2024. She said of the 110 deaths, 99 were non-family homicides, the highest the report has ever found, calling that “alarming and sad.”

Minkens said this is the consequence of a systemic failure, with programs being impacted with budget cuts and losing their staffs, but domestic violence is not lessening.
