You can actually look up the murder rate by state very easily:

That study is pretty ridiculous. You don't need 20 pages of calculations to prove a correlation like this. You'll find that murder rates in the USA are linked to two factors:

1) Proximity to the Mexican border and the drug war coming from there; and
2) Percentage of the population that has been ghettoized.
