I don't know what your cryptic numerology means, but victims and killers are different categories and can't be directly compared, and being victim of a homicide has a much smaller personal-choice component perpetrator.
Of 65 St Louis homicide victims for the year, 50 were AA males; of the 15 identified killers, 14 were AA males.
I'd caution against implying that this is a choice at all. It's not as if 15 times as many are 'choosing' to murder because of the colour of their skin.
That's why I'm glad this fact was omitted - it's not hard to imagine how it might be misinterpreted or exploited.
