In 2023, about 187,633 perpetrators of child abuse in the United States were white. In that same year, about 82,421 perpetrators of child abuse were Hispanic, and 25,113 were of unknown ethnic origin.

In 2023, there were about 541,713 victims of child abuse in the United States. In that year, about 129,187 children of Hispanic origin were reported to be abused in the country. A further 119,898 Black children were the victims of abuse in that year.

In 2023, 8,842 murderers in the United States were white, while 6,405 were Black. A further 461 murderers were of another race, including American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. However, not all law enforcement agencies submitted homicide data to the FBI in 2023, meaning there may be more murder offenders of each race than depicted. While the majority of circumstances behind murders in the U.S. are unknown, narcotics, robberies, and gang killings are most commonly identified.

Sexual offence numbers, prevalence and victim characteristics, including breakdowns by type of incident, sex, victim-perpetrator relationship and location based upon findings from the Crime Survey for England and Wales and police recorded crime.

In 2023, the child abuse rate for children of Hispanic origin was at 6.7, indicating 6.7 out of every 1,000 Hispanic children in the United States suffered from some sort of abuse. This rate was highest among American Indian or Alaska Native children, with 13.8 children out of every 1,000 experiencing some form of abuse. Child abuse in the U.S. The child abuse rate in the United States is highest among American Indian or Alaska Native victims, followed by African-American victims. It is most common among children between two to five years of age. While child abuse cases are fairly evenly distributed between girls and boys, more boys than girls are victims of abuse resulting in death. The most common type of maltreatment is neglect, followed by physical abuse. Risk factors Child abuse is often reported by teachers, law enforcement officers, or social service providers. In the large majority of cases, the perpetrators of abuse were a parent of the victim. Risk factors, such as teen pregnancy, violent crime, and poverty that are associated with abuse and neglect have been found to be quite high in the United States in comparison to other countries.

The National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), previously called the National Crime Survey (NCS), has been collecting data on personal and household victimization through an ongoing survey of a nationally-representative sample of residential addresses since 1973. The NCVS was designed with four primary objectives: (1) to develop detailed information about the victims and consequences of crime, (2) to estimate the number and types of crimes not reported to the police, (3) to provide uniform measures of selected types of crimes, and (4) to permit comparisons over time and types of areas. Beginning in 1992, the survey categorizes crimes as "personal" or "property." Personal crimes include rape and sexual assault, robbery, aggravated and simple assault, and purse-snatching/pocket-picking, while property crimes include burglary, theft, motor vehicle theft, and vandalism. Each respondent is asked a series of screen questions designed to determine whether she or he was victimized during the six-month period preceding the first day of the month of the interview. A "household respondent" is also asked to report on crimes against the household as a whole (e.g., burglary, motor vehicle theft). The data include type of crime, month, time, and location of the crime, relationship between victim and offender, characteristics of the offender, self-protective actions taken by the victim during the incident and results of those actions, consequences of the victimization, type of property lost, whether the crime was reported to police and reasons for reporting or not reporting, and offender use of weapons, drugs, and alcohol. Basic demographic information such as age, race, gender, and income is also collected, to enable analysis of crime by various subpopulations. This dataset represents the concatenated version of the NCVS on a collection year basis for 1992-2023. A collection year contains records from interviews conducted in the 12 months of the given year. Under the collection year format, victimizations are counted in the year the interview is conducted, regardless of the year when the crime incident occurred.For additional information on the dataset, please see the documentation for the data from the most current year of the NCVS, ICPSR Study 38962.

This dataset contains demographic information on offenders alleged to commit violent and property crimes reported to the Anderson Police Department in Anderson, CA. The data includes information on the sex, race, and gender of offenders. It covers violent crimes such as assault and robbery, as well as property crimes such as burglary and theft. Charges are listed by the CJIS IBR Offense Codes, not by statute.

The dataset was provided by the Anderson Police Department in response to our Public Records Act request and covers the time period from Jan 1, 2022 through Dec 31, 2023. The data is presented in Word format. Each row summarizes individual offenses. The demographic labels are grouped by column.

In the year ended June 2023, European victims accounted for around ** percent of victim-reported sexual assault crimes in New Zealand.

Please note that the FBI has retired UCR data ending in 2020 data so this will be the last Arrests by Age, Sex, and Race data they release. Version 13 release notes:Changes R files from .rda to .rds.Fixes bug where the number_of_months_reported variable incorrectly was the largest of the number of months reported for a specific crime variable. For example, if theft was reported Jan-June and robbery was reported July-December in an agency, in total there were 12 months reported. But since each crime (and let's assume no other crime was reported more than 6 months of the year) only was reported 6 months, the number_of_months_reported variable was incorrectly set at 6 months. Now it is the total number of months reported of any crime. So it would be set to 12 months in this example. Thank you to Nick Eubank for alerting me to this issue.Adds rows even when a agency reported zero arrests that month; all arrest values are set to zero for these rows.Version 12 release notes:Adds 2019 data.Version 11 release notes:Changes release notes description, does not change data.Version 10 release notes:The data now has the following age categories (which were previously aggregated into larger groups to reduce file size): under 10, 10-12, 13-14, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, over 64. These categories are available for female, male, and total (female+male) arrests. The previous aggregated categories (under 15, 40-49, and over 49 have been removed from the data). Version 9 release notes:For each offense, adds a variable indicating the number of months that offense was reported - these variables are labeled as "num_months_[crime]" where [crime] is the offense name. These variables are generated by the number of times one or more arrests were reported per month for that crime. For example, if there was at least one arrest for assault in January, February, March, and August (and no other months), there would be four months reported for assault. Please note that this does not differentiate between an agency not reporting that month and actually having zero arrests. The variable "number_of_months_reported" is still in the data and is the number of months that any offense was reported. So if any agency reports murder arrests every month but no other crimes, the murder number of months variable and the "number_of_months_reported" variable will both be 12 while every other offense number of month variable will be 0. Adds data for 2017 and 2018.Version 8 release notes:Adds annual data in R format.Changes project name to avoid confusing this data for the ones done by NACJD.Fixes bug where bookmaking was excluded as an arrest category. Changed the number of categories to include more offenses per category to have fewer total files. Added a "total_race" file for each category - this file has total arrests by race for each crime and a breakdown of juvenile/adult by race. Version 7 release notes: Adds 1974-1979 dataAdds monthly data (only totals by sex and race, not by age-categories). All data now from FBI, not NACJD. Changes some column names so all columns are <=32 characters to be usable in Stata.Changes how number of months reported is calculated. Now it is the number of unique months with arrest data reported - months of data from the monthly header file (i.e. juvenile disposition data) are not considered in this calculation. Version 6 release notes: Fix bug where juvenile female columns had the same value as juvenile male columns.Version 5 release notes: Removes support for SPSS and Excel data.Changes the crimes that are stored in each file. There are more files now with fewer crimes per file. The files and their included crimes have been updated below.Adds in agencies that report 0 months of the year.Adds a column that indicates the number of months reported. This is generated summing up the number of unique months an agency reports data for. Note that this indicates the number of months an agency reported arrests for ANY crime.

In 2024/25, there were 209,556 sexual offences recorded by the police in England and Wales, an increase when compared with the previous reporting year and a peak for this type of crime. Between 2002/03 and 2012/13 the number of sexual offences remained quite stable, but from 2013/14 onwards the number of sexual offences has risen dramatically.

In 2023, about ******* women in the United States were raped or sexually assaulted by well-known or casual acquaintances. For men, this number was significantly lower, with ****** men being raped or sexually assaulted by well-known or casual acquaintances in that year.

In 2023, there were 14,327 murder offenders in the United States who were male, in comparison to 1,898 who were female. However, there were also 5,279 murder offenders where their gender was unknown. Homicides in the U.S. Murder and non-negligent manslaughter in the United States is defined as the willful killing of another human being. Justifiable homicides, or cases where a felon is killed by an officer in the line of duty or a felon is killed during a felony by a private citizen, are not included in murder counts by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The total number of murders varies from state to state in the U.S., with more populous states having higher numbers of murders. Murder offenders and victims Most murder offenders in the United States are between the ages of 17 and 39, with the number of offenders declining steadily after age 40. Additionally, the highest rate of death by homicide was found among males between the ages of 15 and 24. The highest rate of death by homicide for females was for girls under the age of one.

In the 2024/25 reporting year there were 3.4 sexual offences per 1,000 population in England and Wales, with Cleveland police force reporting the highest rate of 4.7 sexual crimes per 1,000 people.

The number of rape and sexual assault cases reported to the police in Germany peaked at ****** in 2024 during the period shown here. Previously, the highest number of cases, ******, had been recorded the year before. Based on the definition in criminal law, sexual assault includes rape, as well as other sexually driven physical attacks. Rape is defined as forcing a person to have sex. Increased crime clearance rate The question remains how high the number of unreported cases is. Reasons for not reporting a sexual assault vary among victims. In recent years, the German police reported increasing clearance rates for sexual crimes. In 2022, **** percent of rape and sexual assault cases were solved, compared to **** percent in 2016. In 2023, however this figure dropped to **** percent, perhaps due to the increase in the number of cases. Among males suspected of committing such crimes, over ** percent were young adults aged 18 to 21 years. Types of German police forces German police forces are divided into several different types, which all have clearly established tasks regulated by law. The Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt, BKA) is often compared to the FBI in the U.S. and investigates federal crimes, such as kidnapping. The Federal Police (Bundespolizei), works in railway stations, at airports, and seaports. They also protect borders, government buildings, and deal with organized crime and terrorism. The criminal police (Kriminalpolizei, Kripo), the only policemen not wearing in uniform in Germany, handle assault, murder, and rape cases, as well as theft. The uniformed police (Schutzpolizei, SchuPo), or beat police, are regularly visible in streets, as they are responsible for traffic safety, among other tasks, and may be approached directly by people in need of assistance or help.

The four Nordic countries Sweden, Iceland, Norway, and Denmark are between the five countries with the highest rate of reported sexual violence in Europe in 2023. Almost 200 cases per 100,000 inhabitants were reported in Sweden.Please note that reporting varies from country to country, and the willingness of victims to come forward can vary across regions and cultures, therefore a comparison between the countries should be taken with caution.

In 2023, the number of sexual assault arrests in South Korea amounted to around ****** cases, showing an increase from the previous two years. The figures have been fluctuating in the past few years. Increase in sex crimes in South Korea Sexual assault refers to a range of physical and psychological violations that occur without the explicit consent of the victim, which includes serious offenses such as rape and attempted rape, as well as various forms of indecent acts carried out through coercion. In recent years, South Korea has witnessed a spike in these crimes, despite the country scoring relatively high on the order and security index within the Asia-Pacific region. This increase is particularly alarming with regard to molka, a term referring to illegal secret filming, commonly involving hidden cameras used to capture non-consensual images and videos of individuals in private settings. Government policies and law enforcement The issue of sexual violence resonates deeply within South Korean society, with a significant number of women identifying it as one of the most critical social challenges. Despite this acknowledgment, the legal framework surrounding sexual offenses remains comparatively lenient by international standards. Many sex offenders receive punishments that do not adequately reflect the severity of their crimes. A recent survey found that nearly ** percent of South Koreans expressed dissatisfaction with the government's crime prevention policies.

Rape offences have increased dramatically in England and Wales since 2012/13, when there were just over 16,000 offences. After this year, rape offences increased substantially, reaching a peak of 71,667 in 2024/25, the most recent reporting year. When 2024/25 is compared with 2002/03, there has been an almost sixfold increase in the number of rape offences recorded by the police in England and Wales. Similar patterns in Scotland and Northern Ireland While there has also been an increase in the number of rape and attempted rape offences in Scotland, the increase has not been quite as steep, with offences reaching 2,897 in 2022/23 compared with 924 in 2002/03. In Northern Ireland there has been a sharp rise in overall sexual offences, rising from 1,438 in 2002/03, to 4,090 by 2023/24. This rise in overall sexual offences is also observable in Scotland, with 14,892 offences in 2024/25, compared with 6,623 in 2002/03. Explaining the increase Although overall crime has shown a noticeable uptick recently, the rise in sexual offences has been much more pronounced. Rather than falling in the mid-2010s and then rising again towards the end of the decade, like overall crime, sexual offences remained at a relatively stable figure, until 2013/14 when it increased dramatically, a pattern mirrored in both Scotland and Northern Ireland. This is possibly due to better reporting practices by the police as well as an increasing willingness of victims to come forward, including historic victims of sexual violence.
