Pilot Study of State and Federal Digital Evidence Laboratories, [United States], 2014

The Pilot Study of State and Federal Digital Evidence Laboratories data collection contains data collected in 2015 as part of the Census of Publicly Funded Forensic Crime Laboratories (CPFFCL). The CPFFCL examined the forensic services provided by publicly funded crime labs across the nation and the resources devoted to completing the work.To capture more information about an emerging forensic science discipline known as digital evidence, the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) expanded the scope of the 2014 CPFFCL from previous data collections to include a separate pilot study of state and federal agencies that solely analyzed digital evidence in support of criminal investigations and prosecutions. These agencies obtained digital and multimedia evidence in various formats, including audio, video, and graphical images from computers, cell phones, cameras, and other electronic devices. The traditional CPFFCL definition of a crime lab limited the information collected about digital evidence since some agencies only handle this type of evidence and employ forensic experts with training in computer science or information technology as opposed to natural sciences such as chemistry and biology.The census collected detailed information on laboratory staff, budgets, workloads, and backlogs in requests for forensic services. The census also provides data on lab accreditations, proficiency tests, and other quality assurances.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Arrests by Age, Sex, and Race, Summarized Yearly, 2008

These data provide information on the number of arrests
reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform Crime
Reporting (UCR) Program each year by police agencies in the United
States. These arrest reports provide data on 43 offenses including
violent crime, drug use, gambling, and larceny. The data received by
ICPSR were structured as a hierarchical file containing, per reporting
police agency: an agency header record, and 1 to 43 detail offense
records containing the counts of arrests by age, sex, and race for a
particular offense. ICPSR restructured the original data to logical
record length format with the agency header record variables copied
onto the detail records. Consequently, each record contains arrest
counts for a particular agency-offense.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Arrests by Age, Sex, and Race, 2008

These data provide information on the number of arrests
reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform Crime
Reporting (UCR) Program each year by police agencies in the United
States. These arrest reports provide data on 43 offenses including
violent crime, drug use, gambling, and larceny. The data received by
ICPSR were structured as a hierarchical file containing (per reporting
police agency) an agency header record, 1 to 12 monthly header
records, and 1 to 43 detail offense records containing the counts of
arrests by age, sex, and race for a particular offense. ICPSR
restructured the original data to a rectangular format.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Arson, 2007

Since 1930, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
compiled the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) to serve as periodic
nationwide assessments of reported crimes not available elsewhere in
the criminal justice system. Seven main classifications of crime were
chosen to gauge fluctuations in the overall volume and rate of
crime. These seven classifications that eventually became known as the
Crime Index included the violent crimes of murder and non-negligent
manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault, and the
property crimes of burglary, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft.
By congressional mandate, arson was added as the eighth Index offense
in 1979. Arson is defined as any willful or malicious burning or
attempt to burn, with or without intent to defraud, a dwelling house,
public building, motor vehicle or aircraft, personal property of
another, etc. The arson data files include monthly data on the number
of arson offenses reported and the number of offenses cleared by
arrest or other means. The counts include all reports of arson
received from victims, officers who discovered infractions, or other
sources.
National Incident-Based Reporting System, 1994: Extract Files

The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) is a
part of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR), administered by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The extract files version of
NIBRS was created to simplify working with NIBRS data. Data management
issues with NIBRS are significant, especially when two or more segment
levels are being merged. These issues require skills separate from
data analysis. NIBRS data as formatted by the FBI are stored in a
single file. These data are organized by various segment levels
(record types). There are six main segment levels: administrative,
offense, property, victim, offender, and arrestee. Each segment level
has a different length and layout. There are other segment levels that
occur with less frequency than the six main levels. Significant
computing resources are necessary to work with the data in its
single-file format. In addition, the user must be sophisticated in
working with data in complex file types. For these reasons and the
desire to facilitate the use of NIBRS data, ICPSR created the extract
files. The data are not a representative sample of crime in the United
States.

National Pretrial Reporting Program, 1992-1993

This data collection effort was undertaken to determine
 whether accurate and comprehensive pretrial data can be collected at
 the local level and subsequently aggregated at the state and federal
 levels. The data contained in this collection provide a picture of
 felony defendants' movements through the criminal courts. The
 1992-1993 National Pretrial Reporting Program database includes cases
 filed in May 1992 that were tracked through April 1993. Offenses were
 recoded into 15 broad categories that conformed to the Bureau of
 Justice Statistics' crime definitions. Other variables include sex,
 race, age, prior criminal record, relationship to the criminal justice
 system at the time of the offense, pretrial release, detention
 decisions, court appearances, pretrial rearrest, adjudication, and
sentencing. The unit of analysis is the defendant.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: County-Level Detailed Arrest and Offense Data, 1992

This data collection contains county-level counts of arrests 
 and offenses for Part I offenses (murder, rape, robbery, assault, 
 burglary, larceny, auto theft, and arson) and Part II offenses 
 (forgery, fraud, embezzlement, vandalism, weapons violations, sex 
 offenses, drug and alcohol abuse violations, gambling, vagrancy, curfew 
 violations, and runaways). Two sets of county populations are reported: 
 one for total county population and the other for counties reporting 
six months or more of data.
National Pretrial Reporting Program, 1990-1991

This data collection effort was undertaken to determine 
 whether accurate and comprehensive pretrial data can be collected at 
 the local level and subsequently aggregated at the state and federal 
 levels. The data contained in this collection provide a picture of 
 felony defendants' movements through the criminal courts. Offenses were 
 recoded into 14 broad categories that conform to the Bureau of Justice 
 Statistics' crime definitions. Other variables include sex, race, age, 
 prior record, relationship to criminal justice system at the time of 
 the offense, pretrial release, detention decisions, court appearances, 
 pretrial rearrest, adjudication, and sentencing. The unit of analysis 
is the defendant.
National Crime Surveys Longitudinal File, 1988-1989:  [Selected Variables]

This longitudinal file for the National Crime Surveys (NCS) 
 contains selected variables related to whether a crime was reported to 
 the police for households that responded to the NCS on three 
 consecutive interviews between July 1988 and December 1989 and had 
 experienced at least one criminal victimization during that time 
 period. Variable names, for the most part, are identical to those used 
 in the hierarchical files currently available for the National Crime 
 Surveys (see NATIONAL CRIME SURVEYS: NATIONAL SAMPLE, 1986-1991 
 [NEAR-TERM DATA] [ICPSR 8864]). Three new variables were created, and 
 one existing variable was altered. The TIME variable describes whether 
 the interview was the first, second, or third for the household in the 
 period between July 1988 and December 1989. V4410 was recoded to give 
 the most important reason the crime was not reported to the police for 
 all households that responded to questions V4390-V4410. RELNOFF was 
 created from variables V4209-V4267 to reflect the closest relation any 
 offender had to the victim, and INJURE was created from variables 
 V4100-V4107 to indicate minor injury, serious injury, or none at all. 
The file is sorted by households.
United States Federal Mandatory Minimum Statutes Study, 1989-1990 

In response to a Congressional directive, the United States
 Sentencing Commission completed this study of federal mandatory
 minimum statutes with an emphasis on the presence and/or applicability
 of statutes prior to conviction and sentencing. To collect this type
 of detailed information, it was necessary to examine actual offense
 behavior. To that end, the Commission selected for detailed review a
 12.5-percent random sample of its FY90 database of 29,011 cases,
 focusing on controlled substance offenses and firearms violations. The
 screening process yielded 1,165 cases. For these defendants,
 information was recorded on real offense components, indictment
 history, mode of conviction, and convicted charges, as well as
 sentence imposed, plea agreements, stipulations, and guideline
 factors. This information allows for a procedural tracking of cases
 and the application of mandatory minimum provisions at various stages
of the criminal justice process.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Supplementary Homicide Reports, 2005

Since 1930, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
compiled the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) to serve as a periodic
nationwide assessment of reported crimes not available elsewhere in
the criminal justice system. Each year, this information is reported
in four types of files: (1) Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest,
(2) Property Stolen and Recovered, (3) Supplementary Homicide Reports
(SHR), and (4) Police Employee (LEOKA) Data. The Supplementary
Homicide Reports provide incident-based information on criminal
homicides reported to the police. These homicides consist of murders,
non-negligent manslaughter, and justifiable homicides. The data,
provided monthly by UCR agencies, contain information describing the
victim of the homicide, the offender, and the relationship between
victim and offender.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest, 2005

Since 1930, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
 compiled the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) to serve as periodic
 nationwide assessments of reported crimes not available elsewhere in
 the criminal justice system. Law enforcement agencies contribute
 reports either directly or through their state reporting programs.
 Each year, summary data are reported in four types of files: (1)
 Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest, (2) Property Stolen and
 Recovered, (3) Supplementary Homicide Reports (SHR), and (4) Police
 Employee (LEOKA) Data. The Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest
 data files include monthly data on the number of Crime Index offenses
 reported and the number of offenses cleared by arrest or other means.
 The counts include all reports of Index crimes (excluding arson)
 received from victims, officers who discovered infractions, or other
sources.
Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) and Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) State and County Geographic Codes, 1990: United States

This dataset was created to facilitate the conversion of
 Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program state and county codes to
 Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) state and county
 codes. The four UCR agency-level data files archived at ICPSR in
 Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data: [United States] (ICPSR 9028)
 contain UCR state and county codes as geographic
 identifiers. Researchers who wish to use these data with other
 sources, such as Census data, may want to convert these UCR codes to
 FIPS codes in order to link the different data sources. This file was
 created to facilitate this linkage. It contains state abbreviations,
 UCR state and county codes, FIPS state and county codes, and county
 names for all counties present in the UCR data files since 1990. These
 same FIPS codes were used to create the UCR County-Level Detailed
Arrest and Offense files from 1990-1996.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]:  Arrests by Age, Sex, and Race for Police Agencies in Metropolitan Statistical Areas, 1960-1997

These data provide information on the number of arrests
 reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Uniform Crime
 Reporting (UCR) Program each year by police agencies in metropolitan
 statistical areas. Although not as well known as the "Crimes Known to
 the Police" data drawn from the Uniform Crime Report's Return A form,
 the arrest reports by age, sex, and race provide valuable data on 43
 offenses. For this collection, the arrests reported by each agency
 were summarized for each of the years 1960 through 1997, and the
 original Uniform Crime Reports data were restructured to create two
 separate files for each year, a header record and a detail
 record. Header files can be linked to detail files by the originating
 agency identifier (ORI). Other variables that are common to both types
 of files are state, census group, year, division, and metropolitan
 statistical agency (MSA). The header datasets also include the agency
 name and the population covered. The detail files also contain the
offense code and the age, sex, and race of the arrestees.
National Incident-Based Reporting System, 1996

The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) is a
part of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR), administered by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In the late 1970s, the law
enforcement community called for a thorough evaluative study of the
UCR with the objective of recommending an expanded and enhanced UCR
program to meet law enforcement needs into the 21st century. The FBI
provided its support, formulating a comprehensive redesign
effort. Following a multiyear study and in consultation with local and
state law enforcement executives, new guidelines for the Uniform Crime
Reports were created. The National Incident-Based Reporting System
(NIBRS) is being implemented to meet these guidelines. NIBRS data are
archived at ICPSR as 13 separate data files, which may be merged by
using linkage variables. The data focus on a variety of aspects of a
crime incident. The Batch Header Segment (Parts 1-3) separates and
identifies individual police agencies by Originating Agency Identifier
(ORI). Batch Header information, which is contained on three records
for each ORI, includes agency name, geographic location, and
population of the area. Part 4, Administrative Segment, offers data on
the incident itself (date and time). Each crime incident is delineated
by one administrative segment record. Also provided are Part 5,
Offense Segment (offense type, location, weapon use, and bias
motivation), Part 6, Property Segment (type of property loss, property
description, property value, drug type and quantity), Part 7, Victim
Segment (age, sex, race, ethnicity, and injuries), Part 8, Offender
Segment (age, sex, and race), and Part 9, Arrestee Segment (arrest
date, age, sex, race, and weapon use). Part 10, Group B Arrest Report
Segment, includes arrestee data for Group B crimes. Window Segments
files (Parts 11-13) pertain to incidents for which the complete Group
A Incident Report was not submitted to the FBI. In general, a Window
Segment record will be generated if the incident occurred prior to
January 1 of the previous year or if the incident occurred prior to
when the agency started NIBRS reporting. As with UCR, participation in
NIBRS is voluntary on the part of law enforcement agencies. The data
are not a representative sample of crime in the United States. For
1996, nine states were fully or partially participating in NIBRS.
Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]:  County-Level Detailed Arrest and Offense Data, 1996

This data collection contains county-level counts of
 arrests and offenses for Part I offenses (murder, rape, robbery,
 aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, auto theft, and arson) and
 counts of arrests for Part II offenses (forgery, fraud, embezzlement,
 vandalism, weapons violations, sex offenses, drug and alcohol abuse
violations, gambling, vagrancy, curfew violations, and runaways).
National Incident-Based Reporting System, 1995

The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) is a
part of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR), administered by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). In the late 1970s, the law
enforcement community called for a thorough evaluative study of the
UCR with the objective of recommending an expanded and enhanced UCR
program to meet law enforcement needs into the 21st century. The FBI
fully concurred with the need for an updated program to meet
contemporary needs and provided its support, formulating a
comprehensive redesign effort. Following a multiyear study, a
"Blueprint for the Future of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program" was
developed. Using the "Blueprint" and in consultation with local and
state law enforcement executives, the FBI formulated new guidelines
for the Uniform Crime Reports. The National Incident-Based Reporting
System (NIBRS) is being implemented to meet these guidelines. NIBRS
data are archived at ICPSR as 13 separate data files, which may be
merged by using linkage variables. The data focus on a variety of
aspects of a crime incident. Part 4, Administrative Segment, offers
data on the incident itself (date and time). Each crime incident is
delineated by one administrative segment record. Also provided are
Part 5, Offense Segment (offense type, location, weapon use, and bias
motivation), Part 6, Property Segment (type of property loss, property
description, property value, drug type and quantity), Part 7, Victim
Segment (age, sex, race, ethnicity, and injuries), Part 8, Offender
Segment (age, sex, and race), and Part 9, Arrestee Segment (arrest
date, age, sex, race, and weapon use). The Batch Header Segment (Parts
1-3) separates and identifies individual police agencies by
Originating Agency Identifier (ORI). Batch Header information, which
is contained on three records for each ORI, includes agency name,
geographic location, and population of the area. Part 10, Group B
Arrest Report Segment, includes arrestee data for Group B
crimes. Window Segments files (Parts 11-13) pertain to incidents for
which the complete Group A Incident Report was not submitted to the
FBI. In general, a Window Segment record will be generated if the
incident occurred prior to January 1 of the previous year or if the
incident occurred prior to when the agency started NIBRS reporting. As
with UCR, participation in NIBRS is voluntary on the part of law
enforcement agencies. The data are not a representative sample of
crime in the United States. For 1995, 9 states, fully or partially
participating in NIBRS, were included in the dataset.
United States Courts of Appeals Database Phase 1, 1925-1988

The Appeals Court Database Project was designed to create
an extensive dataset to facilitate the empirical analysis of the votes
of judges and the decisions of the United States Courts of
Appeals. The data in this collection comprise the first phase of this
project. A random sample of cases from each circuit for each year
between 1925-1988 was coded for the nature of the issues presented,
the statutory, constitutional, and procedural bases of the decision,
the votes of the judges, and the nature of the litigants. The
variables are divided into four sections: basic case characteristics,
participation, issues, and judges and votes. There is a separate data
file (Part 2) containing the number of cases with published decisions
for each circuit/year between 1925 and 1990. These data are necessary
to weight the variables in the main data file (Part 1).
