Nit, but I think that 24.8% is a subset of the 54.3%, not additive - i.e. “family members” are included in the category of “people you know.”

(Confirmed with the pie chart in your first link.)

Great nit! I'll update it to the actual state i.e. only 11.7% of people are killed by strangers. 88.3% knew their killers in some capacity.
