That's assuming that Worthy's number is accurate, but the article alludes that it is not [[and she has provided no evidence to back her claim). The DPD admitted that the original count that was submitted to the FBI was incorrect, and they revised it to 339 homicides, which is what the 37.4 per 100,000 rate was calculated using.
