    Addressing Data Quality in Ohio's Incident-Based Reporting System: Application of Akiyama and Propheter (2005) Outlier Detection Methods
    (Ohio Department of Public Safety, Office of Criminal Justice Services, 1/1/2019) Nicholson, Kristina; Wedd, Alan; Patridge, Charles
    Crime data are collected nationally through the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform Crime Reporting Systems and the National Incident-Based Reporting System. Law enforcement agencies in Ohio have submitted crime data to the federal system since 1989 through the Ohio Incident-Based Reporting System (OIBRS). These crime data form the basis for crime reports and crime mapping that ultimately inform policy and practice throughout the state. Given the importance of crime data, continuous data quality and improvement is a high priority. While federal and state systems implement logical checks on the data submitted by law enforcement agencies, only the federal system have automated checks in place to determine the reasonableness of the data submitted by local agencies. At the local level, the onus of these checks is put on the data systems coordinator through manual inspections. This project moves to fill this gap by applying Akiyama and Propheter's (2005) federally-used outlier detection methods to Ohio's incident-based data. Additionally, the project expanded beyond Akiyama and Propheter (2005) by adapting methods to account for critical cut points that limit the number of agencies identified as outliers. This report summarizes the methods applied to Ohio's 2014 and 2015 OIBRS data and discusses the next steps in automating the implementation of additional data quality checks at the state-level.

    Crime in North Dakota, 2018
    (North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation, Office of the Attorney General, 1/1/2019) Weltz, Colleen
    The North Dakota Incident-Based Reporting (IBR) program involves the collection, compilation, and analysis of crime and arrest statistics reported by the various local law enforcement agencies throughout the state. A total of 53 sheriff departments, 52 police departments, 10 Task Forces and the ND Highway Patrol reported to the ND IBR program in 2018. The 2018 Crime in North Dakota is based solely upon incident data. Data submitted by ND IBR to the FBI is converted from incident-based statistics to the summary system of reporting. In the FBI data, only the most serious of the eight Index crimes are reported. The number of victims is counted in the most serious offenses of homicide, assault, kidnapping, or rape.

    Crime in Hawaii 2017
    (Crime Prevention and Justice Assistance Division, Hawaii Department of the Attorney General, 1/1/2019) Seumanu Fuatagavi, Lydia; Perrone, Paul
    The statistics presented in this report were collected and compiled using the FBI's Hierarchy Rule that limits crime counts to only the most serious offense committed within an incident that is constrained by time and place, and limits arrest counts to only the most serious charge per booking. In 2017, a total of 43,969 Index Crimes were reported in the State of Hawaii, yielding a rate of 3,080 offenses per 100,000 resident population, the lowest on record since statewide data collection began in 1975. The total Index Crime rate in 2017 was 3.9% below the rate reported in 2016, and 19.8% below the rate reported a decade earlier (2008).

    (Oklahoma Statistical Analysis Center, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, 1/1/2019) Miller, Kara
    The Center for Disease Control and Prevention defines an intimate partner as a person with whom one has a close personal relationship that includes an emotional connectedness and an ongoing physical relationship. The Oklahoma Statistical Analysis Center (SAC) analyzed the number of intimate partner murders (IPMs) that were reported by Oklahoma law enforcement from 2011-2016. The SAC conducted both qualitative and quantitative analyses of utilizing the State Incident-Based Reporting System (SIBRS) reports. Researchers also assessed the quality of the SIBRS reports and developed recommendations to improve data quality. For this research, the following relationships were included for the study: spouses; common-law spouses; boyfriend or girlfriend; dating relationships; or former spouses.

    Human Trafficking and Related Offenses
    (Ohio Department of Public Safety, Office of Criminal Justice Services, 1/1/2019) Nicholson, Kristina
    House Bill 262 in 2012 mandates training for law enforcement officers on indicators, legislation and best practices for investigating human trafficking. Not only does this training include sex and labor trafficking, but it also discusses the connection of human trafficking to prostitution and related offenses such as solicitation. The current project examined law enforcement data from the Ohio Incident-Based Reporting System, including human trafficking as well as prostitution-related offenses from 2012-2016. This report summarizes key findings and discusses the implications and recommendations for future research on human trafficking and related offenses using data from the Ohio Incident-Based Reporting System.

    Crime in North Dakota, 2019
    (North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation, Office of the Attorney General, 1/1/2020) Weltz, Colleen
    The North Dakota Incident-Based Reporting (ND IBR) program involves the collection, compilation, and analysis of crime and arrest statistics reported by the various local law enforcement agencies throughout the state. In 2019 fifty-three sheriff departments, 52 police departments, 10 Task Forces, and the ND Highway Patrol submitted data to the ND IBR program. This release of Crime in North Dakota is based solely upon incident data. Since data submitted to the FBI must first be converted to the summary -level data., we strongly discourage comparing ND IBR data to any previously UCR Summary data released by North Dakota or the FBI in the Crime in the United States publications.

    SUMMARY: Report on the C.L.E.A.R. Act Community Law Enforcement Action Reporting Act Pursuant to Senate Bill 2015-185
    (Office of Research and Statistics, Colorado Division of Criminal Justice, 10/1/2020) English, K; Flick, P; Lucero, L
    This report summarizes 2019 information on Senate Bill 185, the Community Law Enforcement Action Reporting Act, or the CLEAR Act. The CLEAR Act mandates that the Division of Criminal Justice annually analyze, and report data reported by law enforcement agencies, the Judicial Department, and the Adult Parole Board to document decisions made at multiple points in the justice system process. The data is analyzed by race/ethnicity and gender, with offense types collapsed into four broad groups: drugs, other, property, and violent crimes. It is important to note that the analysis of race and ethnicity across justice decision points is significantly hampered by the lack of ethnicity information in the statewide court data system. Specifically, the Judicial Branch's ICON data system does not distinguish between race and ethnicity

    An Analysis of Robbery in Oklahoma Using Incident-Based Reporting Data (SIBRS)
    (Oklahoma Statistical Analysis Center, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, 10/24/2019)
    The Oklahoma Statistical Analysis Center (SAC) is co-located with the state's criminal history repository, the state's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, and the State Incident-Based Reporting (SIBRS) Program. The purpose of this study is to increase access to and understanding of the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) enhanced data. By analyzing NIBRS compatible data, the SAC aims to demonstrate the value of SIBRS data to local agencies and government planners, as well as its utility for problem-solving and understanding crimes reported in Oklahoma. The SAC and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) hope to demonstrate the value and utility of SIBRS data to encourage all local law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in Oklahoma to commit to SIBRS reporting and to report quality data. While the number of robberies reported varied monthly, there was an increase in reports between January and August. The number of reported robberies then fluctuated significantly between August and November. During this period, reported robberies: decreased 41.0% from August to September, increased 95.7% from September to October, and then decreased 42.2% from October to November. The majority, 60.9% of robbery victims reported that they did not know the offender. 33.9% of robberies occurred at a residence, with 40.5% of residential robberies occurring between the hours of 9:00 PM and 3;00 AM. Money was the most reported property type stolen (26.3%). However, automobiles which accounted for only 3.9% of the types of property stolen, accounted for 38.8% of the total value of the stolen property.
