Map of Arizona Counties B. Glossary of Terms 65 66 67 II FOREWORD All of us in the law enforcement field have been increasingly concerned about the incidence of crime in Arizona. This publication documents the fact that the number of reported Part I crimes decreased 3.9% in 1981 as compared to 1980. However, the reported number of Part I crimes has increased 20.6% since 1977. During this same period, the rate of police officers per population has decreased 5.2%. In spite of this, the percent of clearances has remained relatively stable. We are about to reach the point where the rate of crime may soon outstrip the available resources of local, county, and state law enforcement agencies. This report does not draw conclusions regarding the causes of crime. However, it does attempt to present meaningful data that will assist interested agencies, both public and private, when they approach the crime problem. I cannot conceive of a higher governmental priority than the protection of the lives, liberty, and property of the citizenry. I believe that crime is the single most important issue facing Arizona today. That is why I feel the information presented here is so important to our citizens as well as to the law enforcement professionals in this state. The bonds of cooperation among law enforcement agencies have served to make this annual report possible. I extend my sincere thanks and gratitude to the sheriff's offices and police departments for their participation in this effort. Ralph T. Milstead Director iii The Arizona Uniform Crime Reporting System 1 HISTORY OF UNIFORM CRIME REPORTING CONSIDERATIONS FOR INTERPRETATION The Committee on Uniform Crime Records of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) was established in 1927 to initiate a national program for collecting crime information. This Committee's responsibility to provide management information to law enforcement agencies was eventually turned over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in 1930, when the FBI received a Congressional mandate to collect and disseminate national crime information. The IACP has continued to serve the Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR) in an advisory capacity, and has been joined in this responsibility by the Committee on Crime Records of the National Sherriff's Association (NSA) in 1966. Statistics are a tool used to summarize information so that patterns or trends become clearer. All statistics must be interpreted with an understanding of just what it is that they can say. Too often information of the type in this report is used incorrectly to draw conclusions that the statistics simply do not support. We ask that great care be taken in analysis and interpretation. The Arizona Uniform Crime Reporting (AUCR) Section first began receiving voluntary crime information from Arizona law enforcement agencies in January 1975. Prior to this date these agencies submitted their crime data directly to the FBI. At the close of calendar year 1981, all 93 eligible law enforcement agencies were contributing crime data to the AUCR unit. 3. Variations in composition of the population, particularly age structure. OBJECTIVES OF ARIZONA UCR The following factors have a major influence on the statistics presented in this report: 1. Crime figures are police statistics as distinguished from the findings of a court, coroner, jury or decision of a prosecutor. 2. Density and size of community population. 4. Stability of population with respect to transient factors. 5. Economic conditions, including job availability. 6. Climate. 7. Effective strength of law enforcement agencies; some police jurisdictions overlap. 8. Attitudes of citizenry toward crime. Because increasing attention has been focused on the problem of crime in our communities in recent years, many segments of our population need more complete information for a variety of reasons. Law enforcement professionals, managers and administrators who must focus on crime in their own jurisdictions, also need to know what is occurring in surrounding jurisdictions in order to deploy personnel and equipment most efficiently. Researchers and planners need to know what is actually happening to predict trends and recommend changes. The goal of Crime in Arizona is to identify the nature and extent of criminal activity in this state and present the information needed by each of these groups. This information will not in itself prevent crime, but it may encourage all segments of society, by understanding the problem, to work together with law enforcement agencies to reduce crime through more effective enforcement. The objectives of Crime in Arizona are (1) To identify the nature and extent of crime in our state; (2) To provide the management information needed by the law enforcement community to augment their ability to attack the crime problem; (3) To provide our citizens with the most complete information available; (4) To provide legislators with the information necessary to formulate laws which address the crime problems, and (5) To provide sufficient detailed data for researchers and planners. 2 9. Crime reporting practices of citizenry. 10. Crime rates are based on census-fixed residential populations of police jurisdictions. 11. Crimes committed on Indian reservations are not counted in the AUCR program, although their population is included in the state's population figures. To obtain accurate information from many different agencies, the national UCR program had to precisely define the methods for collecting such information as the number of offenses, arrests, clearances and value of stolen or recovered property. The methods of collecting and some resulting limitations are explained below. Classification of Offenses UCR divides offenses into two major classifications which are designated Part I and Part II offenses. This distinction is important to keep in mind because different information is collected for each. Part I offenses include: Violent Crimes 1. 2. 3. 4. Criminal Homicide Forcible Rape Robbery Aggravated Assault Property Crimes 5. 6. 7. 8. Burglary Larceny-Theft Motor Vehicle Theft Arson Note: The first seven offenses are used to calculate the Crime Index. Arson is too new to incorporate at this time. Arson will be included when there is a historical data base compiled. Part II offenses include: 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. Other Assaults-simple Forgery and Counterfeiting Fraud Embezzlement Stolen Property: Buying, Receiving, Possessing, Etc. Vandalism Weapons: Carrying, Possessing, Etc. Prostitution Sex Offenses (Except forcible rape and prostitution) Narcotic Drug Laws Gambling Offenses Against Family and Children Driving Under the Influence Liquor Laws Drunkenness (not reported in Arizona) Disorderly Conduct Vagrancy All Other Offenses (except traffic) Suspicion (not reported in Arizona) Curfew and Loitering Law Violations (Juveniles) Runaways (Juveniles) Note: Only arrests are counted for Part II offenses. For robbery and larceny-theft, one offense is counted for each distinct operation which is separate in time and place. The number of victims in any one operation does not determine the number of offenses. For burglary, one offense is counted for each structure which is illegally entered. However, when the structure is an apartment house, business or office building in which units are leased for a period of time, one offense is counted for each unit burglarized. For motor vehicle theft, one offense is counted for each vehicle stolen. Note: Attempts to commit any of the above are also counted as offenses, except that attempts to kill and assaults to kill are counted as aggravated assaults. For multiple offenses that occur in one crime incident, only the most serious offense is counted. In cases when an arson occurs in conjunction with other Part I crimes, both are reported. Part I offenses are ranked according to seriousness and appear in order from most serious to least serious under "Classification of Offenses", above. Clearances An offense is considered cleared (solved) when at least one offender is arrested for a crime, even though several may have been involved. Offenses may also be cleared by exceptional means when the offender: commits suicide; makes a dying declaration; confesses while in custody or serving time for another crime; is prosecuted in another jurisdiction for the same offense; is a juvenile who is handled by notifying the parents; when the victim refuses to prosecute or another jurisdiction refuses to extradite the offender. All offenses are classified on the basis of law enforcement officer investigation in accordance with UCR offense definitions (which will not necessarily be identical to Criminal Code definitions). Because UCR identifies a police problem, offense classifications are not based on the findings of a court, coroner, jury or decision of a prosecutor. Clearances are counted as "adult" and "juvenile." A "juvenile" clearance is counted only when juveniles are exclusively involved in the clearance of an offense. If the arrest of both adults and juveniles results in a clearance, it is counted as an "adult" clearance. Counting of Offenses Property Stolen and Recovered The number of offenses is counted only for Part I crimes and simple assault. The method of counting varies with the type of crime committed, and it is important to remember that the number of offenders does not determine the number of offenses. The figures for value of property stolen and recovered report the value at each point in time. although property can increase in value over time, it is more likely that stolen property will be recovered in a damaged condition. Therefore, recovery value does not necessarily represent a "clearance rate" for stolen property, and one cannot use it to determine law enforcement effectiveness in recovering stolen goods. Because stolen and recovered property figures indicate thefts and recoveries in the current year, it is important to note that For murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, negligent manslaughter, rape, aggravated assault and simple assault, one offense is counted for each victim, regardless of the number of offenders involved. 3 recovered property may have been stolen in a previous year. In addition, the type and value of stolen or recovered property is reported only for Part I offenses and does not include such Part II offenses as fraud, forgery or embezzlement. Arrests Arrest information is collected for all Part I and Part II offenses according to the age, sex, race and ethnic origin of the offender. It is not possible, however, to correlate race with sex or specific ages because the information is collected independently, thus limiting analysis. Furthermore, arrest figures cannot be directly related to the number of crimes cleared because arrest totals count all offenders arrested for each offense, and clearance totals count only the offenses for which an arrest(s) or exceptional clearances have occurred. Reporting Variations and Procedures Arizona now receives Uniform Crime Reports from all eligible 93 law enforcement agencies. One must be aware that unintentional variations from UCR guidelines may occur that would affect the validity of the data presented in this report. Offense totals vary from the actual number of offenses that occur because UCR statistics are based on crimes that are reported to law enforcement agencies and many crimes are not reported. Each contributing law enforcement agency is responsible for compiling its own monthly reports. To aid in this endeavor, the Arizona UCR guide manual and the FBI UCR handbook are supplied to all contributors. These manuals outline reporting procedures in detail and are complete with examples and illustrations. Additionally, our Field Representatives provide instruction and clarification as required. Each agency is supplied with twelve sets of monthly report forms which are used by the agencies to submit their reports. PORTRAIT AND PROFILE OF ARIZONA Arizona, with 113,909 square miles, is the sixth largest state in the United States. Much of this area is owned by the Federal Government in the form of Indian reservations, National Parks, and National Forests. Arizona is 69% federally owned; 27% of that federal ownership is in the form of Indian reservations. The state owns 13% leaving 18% to private ownership. Arizona has two principal metropolitan areas, Phoenix and Tucson (Maricopa and Pima counties). Phoenix, the capitol city, is the financial, commercial, retail, cultural and employment hub in the state, as well as the largest population center with an estimated 810,000 people. Tucson, the largest business, educational and 4 cultural center in southern Arizona, has an estimated population of 347,700 people. More than 41 percent of the people who live in Arizona live in these two cities. One of the unique characteristics of Arizona is its temperate climate. This factor, along with the economic opportunities and a desire to live in the West, has contributed to the state's dynamic population and economic growth. Manufacturing, mining, tourism and travel, and agriculture produce the greatest majority of income for Arizonans. The state's population density is 24.6 persons per square mile, with an estimated population of 2,800,300. This figure includes the Indians living on the reservations within the state. POPULATION GROUPING The crime statistics reported by an individual agency indicates what is happening in one particular area. AUCR groups jurisdictions on the basis of population size and reports crime rates among these groups. The cities, towns and counties within the state have been divided into seven groups according to population size. The seventh group (ungrouped) is provided for identification of volume and type of crime to account for total offenses. This population grouping factor has some influence on the volume and type of crime presented in this report. For use in interpreting this report, the UCR grouping is listed below: Group No. 1 Over 250,000 population. There are two (2) cities that fall within this group. 2 100,001 to 250,000 population. There are five (5) cities and counties that fall within this group. 3 50,001 to 100,000 population. There is one (1) city that falls within this group. 4 25,001 to 50,000 population. There are twelve (12) cities and counties that fall within this group. 5 10,001 to 25,000 population. There are ten (10) cities, towns, or counties that fall within this group. 6 10,000 or less population. There are fiftyfour (54) cities, towns, or counties that fall within this group. 7 Ungrouped. There are nine (9) reporting agencies. These are Educational Institutions and the Department of Public Safety, that by definition do not have measurable population. For purposes of this report, they are combined for the crimes by population distribution. The following is a listing by population group of law enforcement agencies submitting crime data to the Uniform Crime Reporting Section. AGENCY Apache County S.O. Apache Junction P.D.

Being the most aggregate representation of UCR data, it is designed to convey the annual reported crime experience by showing the relative frequency of occurrence of the Index Offenses. The mode of display should not be taken to imply a regularity in the commission of the Part 1 Offenses; rather it represents the annual ratio of crime to fixed time intervals. 9 /110 CITY 4\ COUNTY FEDERAL STATE Part I Index Crimes 11 MURDER AND NONNEGLIGENT MANSLAUGHTER DEFINITION & PROFILE The willful nonnegligent killing of one person by another. Excludes attempts or assault to kill (classified as aggravated assault), suicide and accidental deaths. Murder, the highest of the index offenses, declined 18 percent in 1981 from the previous year. The 227 murders represented 1 percent of all violent crimes reported and 0.1 of one percent of the total state crime index. The largest number of murders reported in one month was 30 in January and Sunday was the most frequent day of the week with 49 murders. White victims were reported in 88 percent of these cases and were offenders 82 percent of the time. A comparison of murder clearance rates shows that, as in 1980, the percent of murder offenses cleared was higher than the rate for any other index crime. The murder clearance rate rose from 69.6 percent in 1980 to 70.5 percent in 1981. Because murder is such a serious crime, detailed information is collected concerning victims, offenders, weapons used, and the circumstances in which the offense took place. Firearms were used in 61 percent of the murders with handguns accounting for 44 percent. Acquaintance was the most frequent relationship between the victims and offenders, with 74 or 33 percent. The relationship was undeterminable in 57 murders or 25 percent. Family relationship existed between victims and offenders in 19 percent of the total murders, with 19 wives being the most frequent family member murdered.

The number of arrests also provides a useful indicator of criminal involvement of perpetrators by age, sex and race, particularly for those crimes which have a high solution rate. The reporting procedures used in the UCR program require that an arrest be counted on each separate occasion a person is taken into custody, summoned or cited, except for traffic violators other than DUI. A person may be arrested several times during a year for the same type of crime or for different offenses. Each arrest would be counted. Furthermore, arrest figures cannot be compared to offense figures because several persons could be arrested for the same offense, or the arrest of one person may solve several offenses. It should be kept in mind that the volume of arrests may vary from time to time due to differences in local arrest procedures and policies. A juvenile is counted as "arrested" when the circumstances are such that if he or she were an adult, an arrest would be counted or when law enforcement or other official action beyond a mere interview, warning or admonishment is taken. PROFILE Arizona law enforcement officers arrested a total of 152,749 persons in 1981. This is 15,902 or 12 percent more than in 1980. There were 37,818 persons arrested for Part I offenses. This is an increase of 8 percent over the 34,907 persons arrested in 1980. Adults accounted for 78 percent of the total arrests and Juveniles 22 percent. Male arrests accounted for 128,735 or 84 percent and females 24,014 or 16 percent. Of the 34,091 Juveniles arrested in 1981, 17,610 or 52 percent were 15 years or younger. This represents an increase of one percent over 1980. As to race, Whites accounted for 84 percent of the total arrests, Indians 8 percent and Blacks 7 percent.

Such acts directly affect the functioning of proper law enforcement operations and thus reduce the ability of our law enforcement agencies to combat crime and maintain law and order. The attitude of disrespect for law enforcement officials and the failure of citizens to come to the aid of the officers being attacked as they perform their lawful duties is one of the serious problems facing law enforcement today. It is a deplorable situation when those persons who have chosen a career in law enforcement must assume the risk of being killed or assaulted by a member of the society they have sworn to protect. PROFILE A total of 1,304 assaults were reported on Arizona law enforcement officers during 1981. This represents a 11 percent decrease over the 1,465 assaults in 1980. 413 or 32 percent. The highest incidents of assaults occurred between 0001 and 0200 hours with 285 or 22 percent. The weapon most often used in the commission of the assault was hands, fists, feet, etc. This represents 83 percent of all law enforcement officers assaulted. The most dangerous activity was responding to disturbance calls (family quarrels, man with gun, etc.) with While every assault does not result in personal injury to the officer involved, 364 or 28 percent of these assaults resulted in personal injury to some extent. This is a decrease from the 34 percent reported in 1980.

CRIME RATE — A figure which represents the number of crimes committed known to the police for each 1,000 population. A crime rate should be considered a victim risk rate in that it demonstrates the risk of becoming a victim of crime. CRIME INDEX — The sum total of seven major offenses used to measure the extent, fluctuation and distribution of crime in a given geographical area. Crime classifications used in the index are: (1) murder, (2) forcible rape, (3) robbery, (4) aggravated assault, (5) burglary, (6) larceny-theft and (7) motor vehicle theft. Each of these offenses is referred to as an "Index Offense." CLEARED BY ARREST OR EXCEPTIONAL MEANS — For Uniform Crime Reporting purposes, an offense is cleared by arrest or solved when at least one person is (1) arrested, (2) charged with the commission of an offense and (3) turned over to court for prosecution. In certain situations police are not able to follow these three steps. In many instances police have exhausted all leads and have done everything else possible to clear a case. If the following four conditions can be met, the offense can be cleared exceptionally: (1) the investigation has definitely established the identity of the offender, (2) there is enough information to support an arrest, charge, and turning over to the court for prosecution, (3) the exact location of the offender is known so that he could be taken into custody and (4) there is some reason outside the police control that prevents the arresting, charging, and prosecuting of the offender. PART I OFFENSES — The first of two main categories of crime classes composing a universal crime classification system established for crime reporting purposes. Part I Offenses are by their nature more serious and/or occur most frequently. The monthly tabulation of Part I Offenses provides a count of "actual offenses." PART II OFFENSES — The second of two main categories of crime classes composing a universal crime classification system established for crime reporting purposes. Part II Offenses are generally less serious in nature and/or occur less frequently. JUVENILE — A person under the age of 18 years. ADULT — A person 18 years of age or older.
