'When only 62% of agencies have provided one-year of data and you have to estimate for the others, that's a problem,' Richard Rosenfeld, a criminologist at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, said.
The Justice Department announced it has arrested 1500 violent crime fugitives, sex offenders, and gang members in 10 major cities across the United States as part of a month-long federal operation. WASHINGTON – A large swath of law enforcement agencies have yet to submit complete data to the FBI's national crime tracking system, raising questions about the utility of a new report in assessing crime trends across the country.
Federal authorities said all of the jurisdictions have committed to providing the information, yet some agencies are operating on timelines slowed by a lack of funding, personnel shortages or delays in acquiring technology.But analysts immediately urged caution in ascribing meaning to the new report.
"When only 62% of agencies have provided one-year of data and you have to estimate for the others, that's a problem," Rosenfeld said. Despite the limited data submissions from police agencies in Wednesday's report, federal authorities expressed confidence in the methodology. But authorities also offered their own clear caution, saying that the significance of the year-to-year changes were unclear given the limited participation of reporting agencies.
The Major Cities Chiefs Association, a consortium of police officials representing the nation's largest law enforcement agencies, reported in August that overall violent crime was up 4.4% in its 2022 midyear survey of 70 cities.
