Biographical History
The Bureau is responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating statistical information about crime, its perpetrators and victims, and the operation of the criminal justice system at the Federal, State, and local levels of government. The Bureau assists State governments in developing capabilities in criminal justice statistics. It also gathers, analyzes, and publishes statistical information on crime and criminal justice and investigates information policy on such issues as the confidentiality and security of data.
The Bureau provides the President, the Congress, other officials and the public with timely and accurate data about crime and the administration of justice. The Bureau's Report to the Nation on Crime and Justice presents comprehensive statistical information about crime and the justice system in a format suitable for the general public. It publishes concise Special Reports and periodic Bulletins that provide up-to-date information about various aspects of criminal justice. In addition, lengthier volumes present detailed analyses of specific topics.
The National Crime Survey is the largest ongoing statistical series currently conducted by the Bureau. Using interviews from a large sample of U.S. households, the Survey measures the rates at which the Nation's populatioin is victimized by crimes of violence and theft.
Other statistical series cover prison and jail inmates, probation and parole, adjudication, processing offenders as they move through the criminal justice system, and criminal justice expenditure and employment. Statistical series currently are being developed that examine pretrial release and the Federal justice system.
