Section I: Hate Crime Statistics, 2001.


Incidents and Offenses

A total of 11,987 law enforcement agencies A law enforcement agency (LEA) is a term used to describe any agency which enforces the law. This may be a local or state police, federal agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).  in 49 states and the District of Columbia District of Columbia, federal district (2000 pop. 572,059, a 5.7% decrease in population since the 1990 census), 69 sq mi (179 sq km), on the east bank of the Potomac River, coextensive with the city of Washington, D.C. (the capital of the United States).  collectively reported 9,730 bias-motivated incidents during 2001. The majority of these were single-bias incidents, meaning that all offenses involved in the incident resulted from the same bias motivation. Multiple-bias incidents are those in which two or more offenses were committed as a result of two or more bias motivations. For 2001, participating agencies reported 9,721 single-bias and 9 multiple-bias incidents.

An examination of data from the single-bias incidents showed that 44.9 percent were motivated mo·ti·vate

(Based on Table 1.)

The Hate Crime Data Collection Program codes all of the offenses that occur within hate crime incidents as belonging to one of three scoring categories--crimes against persons, crimes against property, or crimes against society. Of the 11,451 offenses reported, 67.8 percent were crimes against persons, 31.5 percent were crimes against property, and the remaining 0.7 percent were crimes against society. Within these offense types, intimidation was the most frequently reported of the crimes against persons at 55.9 percent. Destruction/damage/vandalism accounted for 83.7 percent of reported crimes against property. (Based on Table 2.)

A review of the total offenses (11,451) demonstrated that intimidation was the most frequently reported hate crime, accounting for 37.9 percent of the total. Destruction/damage/vandalism made up 26.4 percent; simple assault, 18.8 percent; aggravated assault A person is guilty of aggravated assault if he or she attempts to cause serious bodily injury to another or causes such injury purposely, knowingly, or recklessly under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life; or attempts to cause or purposely or , 10.8 percent. The remaining offenses accounted for 6.1 percent of the total. (Based on Table 2.)

Of the 11,430 offenses that occurred within the single-bias incidents, 46.3 percent were motivated by racial bias. Within those 5,290 offenses, investigators determined that 66.7 percent resulted from anti-black an·ti-Black or an·ti-black

Bias against other religious groups accounted for 10.5 percent. The remaining percent of offenses were motivated by a bias against groups of individuals of varying religious beliefs and anti-atheism/anti-agnosticism/etc. bias.

Sexual-orientation bias (1,592 offenses) made up 13.9 percent of all offenses within the single-bias incidents. Within this bias category, anti-male homosexual homosexual /ho·mo·sex·u·al/ (-sek´shoo-al)

 bias motivated 69.3 percent of offenses, anti-female homosexual bias accounted for 15.4 percent, and bias against homosexuals as a group, 13.0 percent. Anti-heterosexual and anti-bisexual bias accounted for the remainder. (Based on Table 1.)

An analysis of the data from those offenses resulting from bias against a particular ethnicity ethnicity Vox populi Racial status–ie, African American, Asian, Caucasian, Hispanic  or national origin showed that anti-Hispanic bias accounted for 30.1 percent of the total. The remaining percent (69.9) of offenses were classified as bias against various other ethnicities or national origins. (Based on Table 1.)

Thirty-seven of the total offenses associated with single-bias incidents were motivated by anti-disability bias of which 25 were attributed to an anti-mental disability bias. (Based on Table 1.)

A review of the data by offense type and bias motivation revealed that there were 10 hate-motivated murders during 2001. Of these, 5 were the result of an ethnicity or national-origin bias, 4 were driven by racism racism

Additionally, agencies contributing NIBRS NIBRS National Incident-Based Reporting System (US DoD)  data reported 76 hate crime offenses against society in 2001. These offenses accounted for 0.6 percent of the total victims. (Based on Table 2.)

Offenders

As defined by the Hate Crime Data Collection Program, the term known offender offender n. an accused defendant in a criminal case or one convicted of a crime. (See: defendant, accused)  does not imply that the suspect's identity is known, but that an attribute (1) In relational database management, a field within a record.

(2) In object technology, a single element of data. See instance attribute and static attribute.
 of the suspect is identified which distinguishes him or her from an unknown offender. In the hate crime program, the offender's suspected race is the identifying attribute.

In 2001, law enforcement agencies reported a total of 9,239 known offenders associated with 9,730 bias-motivated incidents. (See Table 1.) Of these known offenders, 65.5 percent were white, 20.4 percent were black, 0.9 percent were Asian/Pacific Islander, and 0.6 percent were American American, river, 30 mi (48 km) long, rising in N central Calif. in the Sierra Nevada and flowing SW into the Sacramento River at Sacramento.

Groups of individuals representing various races accounted for 4.4 percent of all known offenders. The remaining 8.2 percent of offenders were of unknown race. (See Table 9.)

The 11,451 reported hate crime offenses in 2001 were committed by 9,239 known offenders; 349 of these offenders were involved in more than one offense. (Based on Table 2.) A review of the 7,649 known offenders involved in hate crimes against persons demonstrated that most (40.6 percent) committed the offense of intimidation. There were 3,607 hate crime offenses committed against property in 2001. Of the 1,851 known offenders for crimes against property, 59.9 percent were involved in destruction, damage, or vandalism. (See Table 2.)

(1) Because hate crime submissions have been updated, Crime in the
United data in this table may differ from those published in Crime in
the United States, 2001.

(2) The term victim may refer to a person, business, institution, or
society as a whole

(3) The term known offender does not imply that the identity of the
suspect is known, but only that the race if the suspect has been
identified, distinguishing him/her from an unknown offender.

(4) A multiple-bias incident is a hate crime in which two or more
offense types were committed as a result of two or more bias
motivations.

(1) Because hate crime submissions have been updated, data in this
table may differ from those published in Crime in the United States,
2001.

(2) The actual number of incidents is 9,730. However, the column
figures will not add to the total because incidents may include more
than one offense type, and

(3) The term victim may refer to a person, business, institution, or
society as a whole.

(4) The term known offender does not imply that the identity of the
suspect is known, but only that the race of the suspect has been
identified, distinguishing him/her from an unknown offender. The actual
number of known offenders is 9,239. However, the column figures will
not add to the total because some offenders are responsible for more
than one offense, and they are, therefore, counted more than once in
this table.

(5) Includes additional offenses collected in NIBRS.
