Item Crime in Oklahoma 2021 Annual Report(Oklahoma Statistical Analysis Center, 2023-03) Oklahoma State Bureau of InvestigationsOn September 1, 1973, the OSBI assumed the statewide administration of the UCR Program in Oklahoma. When the OSBI assumed administration of the program, there were approximately 260 agencies reporting their crime statistics to the OSBI. As of December 31, 2021, there are 439 local law enforcement agencies reporting crime statistics, and the OSBI subsequently submits this crime data to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Traditionally, the FBI’s UCR Program accepted data via the Summary Reporting System (SRS). However, as of January 1, 2021, the FBI no longer accepts SRS data and now only accepts incident-based reporting data compatible with the National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS). With the changes at the federal level, local law enforcement agencies in Oklahoma transitioned from submitting their crime data via SRS to submitting data into Oklahoma’s State Incident-Based Reporting System (SIBRS), which OSBI maintains in addition to the SRS. Beginning with Crime in Oklahoma, 2021, the report will use data reported to the SIBRS database. Due to this change, the data included in this document has changed, and includes data reported for the 52 Group A offenses, 11 Group B offenses, as well as special categories such as Domestic Abuse, Law Enforcement Officers Killed or Assaulted, and Hate/Bias Crime.Item Crime in North Dakota, 2022(North Dakota Bureau of Criminal Investigation, 2023-01) Weltz, ColleenThe 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. Fifty-three sheriff departments, 52 police departments, 10 Task Forces and the ND Highway Patrol reported to the ND IBR program in 2022. Every effort is taken to include the homicide offenses/arrests that occur on the Tribal Law Enforcement jurisdictions.

Results indicate that total crime was significantly lower during the six-week period in 2020 compared to other years, dropping 28% from 2019 to 2020, then increasing 34% in 2021. A similar pattern was observed for drug/alcohol offenses, but not for four other offense types.

The Oregon estimates for 2021 include reporting from 208 of 235 (88.5 percent) law enforcement agencies, while national level estimates include reporting from 11,794 of 18,806 (62.7 percent) law enforcement agencies. These crime data estimates have methodological differences from historical crime data released in prior years.Item Effects of COVID-19 on Offenses, Arrests, and Bookings(Washington Statistical Analysis Center, 2022-11-01) Hernandez, Hanna; Georgoulas-Sherry, VasilikiThis report analyzes the impacts of COVID-19 on criminal justice data. Specifically, it focuses on reported National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) offenses and Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs (WASPC) arrests and bookings. The analysis supports state and federal policymakers by enhancing their ability to determine the actions needed to address the pandemic’s impact on the criminal justice system. It will also help future researchers define the anomalies in the criminal justice datasets, specifically the longitudinal studies that include the years impacted by COVID-19, enabling researchers to provide a more accurate assessment of the impact that the pandemic may have on the criminal justice system and its associated datasets. This report utilized funding from a 2021 State Justice Statistics Grant from the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) funded this report.Item Law Enforcement Response to Domestic Violence Post-Clarke Decision Research Brief(Idaho Statistical Analysis Center Planning, Grants & Research, Idaho State Police, 2022-11-01)This research brief examines domestic violence trends after the Idaho Supreme Court’s ruling in State of Idaho v. Clarke (2019) fundamentally changed how law enforcement responds to domestic violence (DV) incidents. The Court ruled that arresting an individual for a misdemeanor without a warrant is unconstitutional unless the officer witnessed the incident. Data from the Idaho Incident-Based Reporting System (IIBRS) shows that after the Clarke decision took effect, law enforcement agencies made adjustments to their handling of DV cases and offenders.Item Crime Victimization in Idaho: An Overview of Available Data(Idaho Statistical Analysis Center Planning, Grants & Research, Idaho State Police, 2022-08-01) Kourtnie Rodgers and Thomas StraussThe Idaho Statistical Analysis Center (ISAC) partnered with researchers from the Department of Criminal Justice at Boise State University (BSU) to investigate victimization data in Idaho. BSU and ISAC sought to report on the status of victimization data in the state and examine data regarding risk and protective factors that may impact victimization. ISAC developed a data dashboard, available to the public through the Idaho Victimization Clearinghouse at BSU, to display data concerning various types of victimization in Idaho and data regarding services provided to victims in the state. This report provides an overview of Idaho’s victimization data and discusses gaps in these data and recommendations for improvement.Item Crime in Delaware 2017-2021 Wilmington Supplement(Statistical Analysis Center, Delaware Criminal Justice Council, 2022-12-01) Eric RagerCrime in Delaware: 2017 – 2021 is the official report of serious crimes known to Delaware law enforcement from 2017 through 2021.

Within the previous five years, Oklahoma citizens have approved two State Questions: SQ 780, changed possession of controlled substances to a misdemeanor only offense, and SQ 788 legalized the use of Marijuana for medicinal purposes. The purpose of this project was to examine potential changes for reported Drug/Narcotic Violations using data collected from the State Incident-Based Reporting System (SIBRS). SIBRS defines a Drug/Narcotic Violation as “the unlawful cultivation, manufacture, distribution, sale, purchase, use, possession, transportation, or importation of any controlled drug or narcotic substance.” Researchers gathered data for the top two agencies from each county who reported Drug/Narcotic Violations into SIBRS from 2016-2019. In total, there were 151 unique agencies included in the study.Item Drug/Narcotic Violations in Oklahoma: An Analysis Using State Incident-Based Reporting System (SIBRS) Data(Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, 2022-02-16) Oklahoma State Bureau of InvestigationWithin the past five years, two State Questions (SQ) have been approved by citizens. The two SQs, 780 and 788, modified Oklahoma laws regarding controlled dangerous substances. Specifically, SQ 780 changed possession of a controlled dangerous substance from a misdemeanor and/or felony to a misdemeanor crime unless the amount exceeds the statutorily defined level for distribution or trafficking. While SQ 780 modified possession of a controlled dangerous substance, SQ 788 legalized the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes with the recommendation of a doctor. Given these significant changes, the Oklahoma SAC identified this as a subject for further research. The Oklahoma SAC proposed a study for Drug/Narcotic Violations in Oklahoma using the State Incident-Based Reporting System (SIBRS). For this study, the Oklahoma SAC collected data from SIBRS for the two agencies with the highest number of Drug/Narcotic Violations from 2016-2019 in each county. In addition to SIBRS data, the SAC collected data from the OSBI lab system
