FBI Hate Crime Data Collection Guidelines and Training Manual - Criteria and Definitions, Scenarios of Bias Motivation, Race, Religion, Ethnicity, Sexual ... Disability, Gender (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

The passage of the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act (the Act) in 2009 expanded the bias motivation definitions for hate crimes. The FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which collects and publishes information about crimes motivated by bias, has modified its data collection accordingly by including new and revised definitions, along with corresponding examples.This publication, a merger of two earlier publications (Hate Crime Data Collection Guidelines and the Training Guide for Hate Crime Data Collection), reflects the changes in the Act and is intended to assist law enforcement agencies in collecting and submitting hate crime data to the FBI UCR Program, as well as establishing an updated hate crime training program for their personnel. In addition to providing suggested model reporting procedures and training aids for capturing the new bias motivations, the manual is written to raise law enforcement officers' awareness of the hate crime problem. The FBI UCR Program is grateful to all who have assisted in preparing this publication.I. Introduction * II. Criteria of hate crime * III. Definitions for hate crime data collection * IV.
