Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uniform Crime Reports for the United States: Printed Annually 1967 Perhaps never in our history has there been such widespread concern over crime and the capability of our criminal justice agencies to contend with it. The passage of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 is the result of a national demand for public order. This far-reaching Act, signed into law by the President, promises substantial financial and functional sup port to local and state law enforcement agencies. Achievement of this Act's objective - to improve the performance of law enforcement - will depend on wise application of the funds available and sound implementation of the Act's provisions by state and local agencies. As I stated on these pages last year, a vital need within the state is effective criminal justice statistical programs. Crime statistics are necessary if the states are to know the extent and nature of the crime problem and be in a position to intelligently plan for and evaluate their criminal justice systems. These programs are an essential part of statewide computerized information systems which are rapidly being developed. The fbi has been providing assistance to a number of states during the past several years in developing statewide programs of police statistics and stands ready to afford such assistance to all states upon request. The Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act offers the states financial help in developing and implementing such systems, including a collection of police statistics. Uniform Crime Reports provides this country's only nationwide view of crime. This Program does present a practical measure of this Nation's most common local crime problems. Like the collection of other mass social data, it cannot be statistically pure. The development of state programs of police statistics will further improve the quality and completeness of Uniform Crime Reports. Certainly, any national collection of complete criminal justice statistics will require standards that can be obtained only through centralized state programs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uniform Crime Reports for the United States: Printed Annually 1966 Uniform Crime Reports give a nationwide view Of crime based on police statistics made possible by the voluntary cooperation of local law enforcement agencies. Since the factors which cause crime are many and vary from place to place, readers are cautioned against drawing conclusions from direct com parisons of crime figures between individual communities without first con sidering the factors involved. The national material summarized in this publication should be used, however, as a starting point to determine deviations of individual cities from the national averages. Crime is a social problem and the concern of the entire community. The law enforcement effort is limited to factors within its control. Some of the conditions which will affect the amount and type of crime that occurs from place to place are briefly outlined below: Density and size of the community population and the metropolitan area of which it is a part. Composition of the population with reference particularly to age, sex and race. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-03-03 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uniform Crime Reports for the United States, 1961 Crime is a social problem and a community responsibility which crosses all walks of life. Yet from time to time unfair pressures, often political in nature, are brought to bear on a police department which has exposed a local crime problem. This happens despite the fact that law enforcement efforts to control crime are basically lim ited to effective preventive patrol and deterrence through successful investigation. Crime, like a disease, can only be treated after identification and full exposure. It cannot be erased by employing different and less repugnant terms for criminal acts, thus, in a sense, defining them out of existence. Law enforcement is a public service and as such imposes an obliga tion on each executive head of a department to advise his community of crime conditions, whether favorable or unfavorable, and the extent and the effectiveness of the police operation. For the most part, this is done through the use of crime statistics, which we in law enforce ment should look upon as a means to measure the blood pressure of the department. They will indicate weaknesses and strength, as well as suggest certain Operational and administrative needs; The purpose of crime reporting then is dual; namely, public disclosure and internal appraisal. Law enforcement records are the basic source of crime data, and the police executive, because of his daily experience with crime incidents, is uniquely qualified to interpret crime counts. It is extremely important that the chief or sheriff in releasing these numbers also make available his knowledge of their meaning. This should include the wide range of circumstances involved in each crime classification, general facts about the types of persons who commit these crimes, assistance that can be rendered by local citizens in reducing the opportunity for crime, and particularly the limitations of the police prevention and deterrence efforts. Although the responsibility for reversing our crime trend is vested in the entire community, law enforcement fulfills its obligation by effectively carrying out its traditional role and by taking the leader ship in directing community attention to specific crime problems, including public indifference.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uniform Crime Reports for the United States: Printed Annually 1965 Recent years have witnessed a marked increase in citizen awareness of the crime problem. This growing interest - particularly that shown by persons who previously have taken the position that crime is solely the responsibility of the law enforcement profession - is most encouraging. It offers promise of materially aiding police efforts in the control of crime. Individuals and organizations representing many segments of our society are displaying a keen interest in programs to assist law enforcement and, ultimately, to reduce the volume of crime. In many parts of the country, studies have been instituted and plans developed not only to achieve a better understanding of local crime conditions, but also to find solutions to the complex problems involved. The success of these programs depends largely upon the availability of factual and complete statistical data - data which help individual communities to comprehend the nature and extent of crime locally and to formulate effective measures of prevention and control.

This book was released on 2018-02-26 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crime in the United States Crime in the United States contains statistical documentation of criminal activity that has taken place in our country during the past year. Its various tables and graphs provide a measurement of crime that has been proven through five decades to be a valuable aid to the law enforcement community. The data represent much more; they depict a national problem shared jointly by every aspect of American society. The real impact of crime cannot be demonstrated in statistical terms. These pages do not depict, for example, the anger, fear, and frustration suffered by the victims of crime. We cannot see the pain and heartache endured by the families of murder victims, including 78 law enforcement officers feloniously killed in the line of duty. The vast economic burden resulting from criminality, direct losses as well as enormous costs for maintaining a criminal justice apparatus to prevent, detect, and punish those responsible, is not portrayed. From these pages, we cannot discern the long hours, the arduous efforts, and the sacrifices made by our dedicated law enforcement agencies to thwart crime and apprehend lawbreakers. Crime figures represent a full range of detrimental effects upon our society. Thus, decreases in crime rates are indeed welcomed news. From 1982 to 1984, we experienced such declines. In 1985, however, a reversal of that trend took place. The overall Crime Index increased by 5 percent, and violent crime alone rose by 4 percent. There are few social statements more tragic than these. Plausible explanations for crime fluctuations are frequently offered, but their accuracy is often questionable and certainly controversial. Law enforcement remains diligent; our citizenry has increasingly taken an active role in the fight against lawlessness. Yet, we see crime rising. Whatever the reasons for the crime increase last year, the course we must take is clear. It is up to all of law enforcement, the criminal justice community, and of course, each and every citizen to do more. We must take full advantage of every resource available to fight crime; to enact laws that protect the public while ensuring that lawbreakers are brought to justice; to direct our research, our strategies, our funding, our training, and our manpower to their most effective ends, not only to solve crime but also to prevent it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Uniform Crime Reports for the United States: 1980 With the issuance of Crime in the United States - 1980, we in law enforcement reflect on the decade of the 705 with mixed emotions. It would appear that the concerted efforts of law enforcement at all levels of government have yet to find a panacea in the fight against crime. The decade saw a 50-percent increase in crimes reported to law enforcement as measured by the Crime Index. There were only 2 years - 1972 and l977 - when we experienced a respite; all other years were characterized by increases. Students of the crime problem have pointed to various reasons for the growth in reported crime during the last 10-year period. Among these were a higher sensitivity on the part of the public in reporting crimes that were heretofore unreported, an economic situation conducive to the commission of crime, and a lowering of the threshold of risk in being prosecuted for the commission of a crime. While these or other reasons may explain that 50 percent increase, the fact still remains that our society was and is faced with a burdensome social problem. Crime is a major concern; its reduction has to be a, national responsibility. If we are to enter the decade of the 803 with the legacy of the 705, then the task of law enforcement becomes even more onerous. As shown by the phenomenon of the past 10 years, law enforcement alone cannot cope with this grave social ill.
