Appendix 1
Data Characteristics and Known Limitations
Crime Data
Local law enforcement agencies are required to submit monthly copies of hate crime reports to the
Department of Justice (DOJ) in compliance with California Penal Code section 13023. California Penal
Code section 422.55 defines a hate crime as a criminal act committed, in whole or in part, because of
one or more of the following actual or perceived characteristics of the victim: (1) disability, (2) gender,
(3) nationality, (4) race or ethnicity, (5) religion, (6) sexual orientation, (7) association with a person or
group with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics.
The following information and limitations should be considered when using hate crime data:
1) A hate crime event contains the occurrence of one or more criminal offenses, committed against
one or more victims, by one or more suspects or perpetrators. Victims can have more than one
offense committed against them.
2) Hate crimes reported by law enforcement agencies are counted in a specific way. In each hate
crime event, the DOJ counts the total number of victims, the total number of suspects, and the
total number of criminal offenses in one event. These totals are then classified and counted by
type of bias motivation (anti-black, anti-Hispanic, anti-Jewish, anti-gay, etc.), type of crime (murder,
aggravated assault, burglary, destruction/vandalism, etc.), the location where the crime took place
(residence, street, synagogue, school, etc.), and the type of victim (individual or property).
3) The hate crime reporting system was implemented by the DOJ in 1994. Law enforcement
agencies submit copies of initial crime reports to the DOJ. Crime reports that were submitted as
hate crimes, but later determined to be unfounded, were not included.
4) The DOJ requested that each law enforcement agency establish procedures incorporating a twotier review (decision-making) process. The first level is done by the initial officer who responds
to the suspected hate crime incident. At the second level, each report is reviewed by at least one
other officer to confirm that the event was, in fact, a hate crime.
5) Caution should be used when making jurisdictional comparisons. The following factors should
be considered: cultural diversity and population density; size of law enforcement agencies; and
the training received in the identification of hate crimes by law enforcement officers in each
jurisdiction.
6) The following factors may influence the volume of hate crimes reported to the DOJ:
zz
zz
zz
zz
Cultural practices of individuals and their likeliness to report hate crimes to law
enforcement agencies.
Strength and investigative emphasis of law enforcement agencies.
Policies of law enforcement agencies.
Community policing policies.
25
7) From 1995 to 2001, a hierarchy rule was used to count the various types of hate crimes (murder,
intimidation, vandalism, etc.). This method counted the most serious offense in a hate crime event and
counted all additional offenses in multiple-offense events under the most serious crime count. For
example, a crime event that had two offenses a simple assault and an aggravated assault would be
counted as two aggravated assaults. Trend analysis for these years can be performed since the unit of
count is consistent.

In 2002, the DOJ began counting each offense in each hate crime event, whether they had one offense
(a majority of events) or multiple offenses (a minority of events). This change was implemented to more
accurately count each type of criminal offense. Using this new counting standard, comparisons and trend
analysis should be limited to 2002 and forward.
In 2009, the DOJ began collecting information on hate crimes involving multiple-bias motivations. Law
enforcement agencies were able to report up to five bias motivations for each hate-related event, as long
as there was a unique offense for each bias motivation.
8) A significant reason for the large disparity between individual victims and victims that are an entity is due
to the DOJs Criminal Justice Statistics Centers use of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Uniform Crime
Reporting program standards. A property crime against an entity (a business, religious organization,
government institution, etc.) can only be counted as one victim, whereas a crime committed against an
individual can have more than one victim per crime event.
County District Attorney and City Attorney

Prosecutorial Data
The following information and limitations should be considered when interpreting hate crime cases:
1) In order to show the criminal justice systems response to hate crimes, in 1995 the Attorney General
asked all district attorneys and city attorneys to submit summary data of complaints filed and convictions
secured.
2) The 2010 District Attorneys and City Attorneys Report File of Hate Crime Cases contains summary data based
on cases referred to each district attorney or city attorney, and filings and convictions that occurred from
January 1, 2010, through December 31, 2010.
3) When viewing prosecutorial data, it is not possible to relate the number of hate crimes reported by law
enforcement agencies to the number of hate crimes prosecuted by district attorneys and city attorneys.
First, crimes often occur in different reporting years than their subsequent prosecutions. Second, the
number of crimes reported by law enforcement is much higher than those calling for prosecutorial action
since the latter requires an arrested defendant who can be prosecuted in a court of law.
4) All prosecutorial data includes hate crimes committed by both juvenile and adult defendants.

Acknowledgments
The DOJ is mandated by the Legislature to submit an annual Hate Crime in California report. The
department extends its appreciation to all the law enforcement agencies that provided complete
and timely data. This report would not have been possible without their cooperation.
