The increasing number of activists murders to me only indicates that the killers and especially whoever is behind them isn't being caught and is still free to eliminate again and again people they find inconvenient for their businesses. If each one of them was arrested and given a life sentence after each murder, whether committed or by contract, we probably would have solved the problem ages ago. Those people have shitloads of money at disposal for hiring gunmen, so I expect they can buy other people among the local law enforcement too.
