Federal Justice Statistics Program: Criminal Appeals Cases Filed in Courts of Appeals, 2017

The data contain records of criminal appeals cases filed in United States Courts of Appeals during fiscal year 2017. The data were constructed from the Administrative Office of the United States Courts' (AOUSC) Court of Appeals file. These contain variables on the nature of the criminal appeal, the underlying offense, and the disposition of the appeal. An appeal can be filed by the government or the offender, and the appellant can appeal the sentence, the verdict, or both sentence and verdict. The data file contains variables from the original AOUSC files as well as additional analysis variables. Variables containing identifying information (e.g., name, Social Security number) were either removed, coarsened, or blanked in order to protect the identities of individuals. These data are part of a series designed by the Urban Institute (Washington, DC) and the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Data and documentation were prepared by the Urban Institute through 2012. Data from 2013 on were prepared by Abt Associates.
National Survey of Victim Service Providers, [United States], 2019

The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) entered into a cooperative agreement with Westat to design and conduct the National Survey of Victim Service Providers (NSVSP). The NSVSP is jointly funded by the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) and BJS. It is part of BJS's Victim Services Statistical Research Program that aims to provide comprehensive information about what services are being provided to victims, who is being served, and what gaps in service delivery may exist. The NSVSP provides a critical opportunity to address the existing knowledge gaps and enhance the victim services field to better serve the needs of crime victims. It collected detailed information on the number of victims served by type of crime, victim characteristics, services provided, criminal justice and community relationships, service gaps, and VSP staff size, turnover, and characteristics.
National Crime Victimization Survey, Concatenated File, [United States], 1992-2020

The National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), previously called the National Crime Survey (NCS), has been collecting data on personal and household victimization through an ongoing survey of a nationally-representative sample of residential addresses since 1973. The NCVS was designed with four primary objectives: (1) to develop detailed information about the victims and consequences of crime, (2) to estimate the number and types of crimes not reported to the police, (3) to provide uniform measures of selected types of crimes, and (4) to permit comparisons over time and types of areas. Beginning in 1992, the survey categorizes crimes as "personal" or "property." Personal crimes include rape and sexual assault, robbery, aggravated and simple assault, and purse-snatching/pocket-picking, while property crimes include burglary, theft, motor vehicle theft, and vandalism. Each respondent is asked a series of screen questions designed to determine whether she or he was victimized during the six-month period preceding the first day of the month of the interview. A "household respondent" is also asked to report on crimes against the household as a whole (e.g., burglary, motor vehicle theft). The data include type of crime, month, time, and location of the crime, relationship between victim and offender, characteristics of the offender, self-protective actions taken by the victim during the incident and results of those actions, consequences of the victimization, type of property lost, whether the crime was reported to police and reasons for reporting or not reporting, and offender use of weapons, drugs, and alcohol. Basic demographic information such as age, race, gender, and income is also collected, to enable analysis of crime by various subpopulations.
This dataset represents the concatenated version of the NCVS on a collection year basis for 1992-2020. A collection year contains records from interviews conducted in the 12 months of the given year. Under the collection year format, victimizations are counted in the year the interview is conducted, regardless of the year when the crime incident occurred.
For additional information on the dataset, please see the documentation for the data from the most current year of the NCVS, ICPSR Study 38090.
Annual Survey of Jails in Indian Country, 2020

The purpose of the Survey of Jails in Indian Country is an enumeration of all known adult and juvenile facilities -- jails, confinement facilities, detention centers, and other correctional facilities operated by tribal authorities or the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), U.S. Department of the Interior. For the purpose of this collection, Indian country includes reservations, pueblos, rancherias, and other Native American and Alaska Native communities throughout the United States. The survey collects data on the number of adults and juveniles held on the last weekday in June 2020, type of offense, average daily population in June, most crowded day in June, admissions and releases in June, number of inmate deaths and suicide attempts from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, rated capacity on June 30, and jail staffing on June 30, 2020. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) added a special addendum to the 2020 survey to measure the impact of this public health emergency on Indian country jails from January to June 2020.

Uniform Crime Reports [United States]:  Supplementary Homicide Reports, 1976-1992

These data provide incident-level information on criminal 
 homicides including date, location, circumstances, and method of 
 offense, as well as demographic characteristics of victims and 
 perpetrators and the relationship between the two. For this dataset, 
 the original Uniform Crime Reports data were completely restructured 
 into a nested, or hierarchical, form with repeating records. 
 Specifically, the file contains one record for each agency per year 
 (record type "A"), nested within which is one record per incident 
 (record type "I"). Victim records (record type "V") are in turn 
 nested within incident records, and offender data are repeated for all 
 offenders on each victim record. Part 3, ORI List, contains Originating 
 Agency Identifier (ORI) codes used by the FBI and the corresponding 
agency name.
Federal Justice Statistics Program: Arrests and Bookings for Federal Offenses, 2017

The data contain records of arrests and bookings for federal offenses in the United States during fiscal year 2017. The data were constructed from the United States Marshals Service (USMS) Prisoner Tracking System database. Records include arrests made by federal law enforcement agencies (including the USMS), state and local agencies, and self-surrenders. Offenders arrested for federal offenses are transferred to the custody of the USMS for processing, transportation, and detention. The Prisoner Tracking System contains data on all offenders within the custody of the USMS. The data file contains variables from the original USMS files as well as additional analysis variables. Variables containing identifying information (e.g., name, Social Security number) were either removed, coarsened, or blanked in order to protect the identities of individuals. These data are part of a series designed by Abt and the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Data and documentation were prepared by Abt.

Adjusting the National Crime Victimization Survey's Estimates of Rape and Domestic Violence for Gag Factors, 1986-1990

The purpose of this project was to use statistical modeling
 techniques to estimate rape and domestic assault rates, adjusting for
 interviewing conditions under which the National Crime Victimization
 Survey (NCVS) was administered. Data for women 16 years of age and
 older interviewed in the NCVS (see NATIONAL CRIME SURVEYS: NATIONAL
 SAMPLE, 1986-1990 [NEAR-TERM DATA] [ICPSR 8864]) were analyzed. The
 researchers considered whether the type of interview (personal or
 telephone) and the presence of another person (particularly a spouse)
 influenced or "gagged" the reporting of rape and domestic violence
 in the NCVS. The researchers also investigated correlates, primarily
 demographic in nature, of reporting rape, domestic violence, other
 assaults, and breaking and entry. In total, the data file contains
 reports of 434 rapes, 1,973 incidents of domestic violence, 13,459
 other assaults, and 88,950 incidents of breaking and entry. The
 binary-coded variables provide information on whether the respondent
 was alone during the interview, others who were present, whether the
 interview was by telephone, whether the respondent refused a telephone
 interview, the number of persons who lived in the household, whether
 the respondent owned her home, whether the land use was urban, whether
 the household the respondent was living in was the same household from
 the last interview, whether the respondent had moved more than three
 times in the last five years, and whether an assault, domestic
 violence incident, rape, breaking and entry, or no crime was
 reported. Demographic information includes the respondent's education,
 income, employment during the last six months, marital status at the
 time of the interview, and whether the respondent was white (or
 non-white) or Hispanic (or non-Hispanic). Variables coded the same as
 the NCVS variables include age, respondent's relationship to the
 offender, type of crime, year and quarter of interview, NCVS control
number, and person weight.
Uniform Crime Reports: Monthly Weapon-Specific Crime and Arrest Time Series, 1975-1993 [National, State, and 12-City Data]

These data were prepared in conjunction with a project
 using Bureau of Labor Statistics data (not provided with this
 collection) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform Crime
 Reporting (UCR) Program data to examine the relationship between
 unemployment and violent crime. Three separate time-series data files
 were created as part of this project: a national time series (Part 1),
 a state time series (Part 2), and a time series of data for 12
 selected cities: Baltimore, Buffalo, Chicago, Columbus, Detroit,
 Houston, Los Angeles, Newark, New York City, Paterson (New Jersey),
 and Philadelphia (Part 3). Each data file was constructed to include
 82 monthly time series: 26 series containing the number of Part I
 (crime index) offenses known to police (excluding arson) by weapon
 used, 26 series of the number of offenses cleared by arrest or other
 exceptional means by weapon used in the offense, 26 series of the
 number of offenses cleared by arrest or other exceptional means for
 persons under 18 years of age by weapon used in the offense, a
 population estimate series, and three date indicator series. For the
 national and state data, agencies from the 50 states and
 Washington, DC, were included in the aggregated data file if they
 reported at least one month of information during the year. In
 addition, agencies that did not report their own data (and thus had no
 monthly observations on crime or arrests) were included to make the
 aggregated population estimate as close to Census estimates as
 possible. For the city time series, law enforcement agencies with
 jurisdiction over the 12 central cities were identified and the
 monthly data were extracted from each UCR annual file for each of the
 12 agencies. The national time-series file contains 82 time series,
 the state file contains 4,083 time series, and the city file contains
 963 time series, each with 228 monthly observations per time
 series. The unit of analysis is the month of observation. Monthly
 crime and clearance totals are provided for homicide, negligent
 manslaughter, total rape, forcible rape, attempted forcible rape,
 total robbery, firearm robbery, knife/cutting instrument robbery,
 other dangerous weapon robbery, strong-arm robbery, total assault,
 firearm assault, knife/cutting instrument assault, other dangerous
 weapon assault, simple nonaggravated assault, assaults with
 hands/fists/feet, total burglary, burglary with forcible entry,
 unlawful entry-no force, attempted forcible entry, larceny-theft,
 motor vehicle theft, auto theft, truck and bus theft, other vehicle
theft, and grand total of all actual offenses.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data: Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest, United States, 2016

The UNIFORM CRIME REPORTING PROGRAM DATA: OFFENSES KNOWN AND CLEARANCES BY ARREST, 2016 dataset is a compilation of offenses reported to law enforcement agencies in the United States. Due to the vast number of categories of crime committed in the United States, the FBI has limited the type of crimes included in this compilation to those crimes which people are most likely to report to police and those crimes which occur frequently enough to be analyzed across time. Crimes included are criminal homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft.
Much information about these crimes is provided in this dataset. The number of times an offense has been reported, the number of reported offenses that have been cleared by arrests, and the number of cleared offenses which involved offenders under the age of 18 are the major items of information collected.
Uniform Crime Reports: National Time-Series Community-Level Database, 1967-1980

The Uniform Crime Reports National Time-Series Data,
 1967-1980, include detailed criminal offense and clearance information
 submitted monthly by over 3,000 consistently reporting law enforcement
 agencies in the United States. These data, provided in annually pooled
 cross-sections, were processed at the Center for Applied Social
 Research, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts to produce
 easily accessible and highly reliable time-series data on officially
 reported crime. Originally provided by the Federal Bureau of
 Investigation (FBI), these data exclude Uniform Crime Report (UCR)
 data from infrequently reporting law enforcement agencies. In general,
 only those agencies that submitted ten or more monthly reports in
 every year during 1967 through 1980 are included in this collection.
 The data include detailed breakdowns of offenses and clearances taken
 from disaggregated UCR Return A tapes. Of particular interest are
 weapon-specific robbery and assault variables, types of rape,
 burglary, larceny, and motor vehicle theft, and clearances by arrest
 (or other exceptional means) of adults and juveniles for each offense
 sub-type. Both monthly and annual counts of these are available.
 Finally, as an aid to the user, each agency is identified by its FBI
 "ORI Code" as well as a sequential case number produced and documented
 by ICPSR in the codebook's appendix. Cases also may be identified by
 geographic region, state, SMSA, county, population size and group, and
frequency of reporting.
