National UCR Summary Reporting began in 1930UCR established to measure and compare crime throughout the United StatesUCR uses a national classification system so that all states’ laws can be compared despite differences in crime definition

(e.g., Assault, Battery)

New York participates in this national program, by state law

The UCR Summary Crime Report is a monthly list of reported offensesUsually one offense per incidentOnly the most serious offense per incident

by offense type by property type

The type of property that was stolen (in dollars)

REVIEW OF STOLEN-PROPERTY REPORTING

Crime counts by offense type are entered on pages 1 and 2 of the Return A (number of robberies, number of larcenies, etc)

Monetary values are reported by offense on page 4 Murder, Rape, Burglary may include property stolen Robbery, Larceny, and Motor Vehicle Theft must have stolen

property reported or a note of explanation Larceny values are reported by Value Type and Larceny Type Contents of stolen vehicle are added to the value of vehicle

The property type of stolen (and recovered) property is reported in dollars on page 5 Value of stolen vehicle and contents are reported separately

Page 44: TOPICS TO BE COVERED

44

MINIMIZING ERRORS Cross checks help to verify that all offenses and stolen property

have been recorded properly Larceny value types and monetary value rules of thumb:

“$200 AND OVER” total: multiply $200 times the number of crimes at this level on page 2. The result is the MINIMUM expected dollar amount in the $200 and Over line on page 4

“$50 TO $199” requires monetary values on page 4 to be no less than $50 times the number of crimes at this level, and no more than $199 times that crime number

“UNDER $50” total in dollars, divided by the crime count at this level, cannot be more than $49

The two Larceny sections within the “Property Stolen by Classification” report on page 4 must be equal to each other

Total value of all property stolen on page 4 must equal the total value of stolen property on page 5
