However, the FBI did not intentionally stop reporting arrest data by race and ethnicity, but rather faced a significant data gap due to the 2021 transition from the legacy Summary Reporting System (SRS) to the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). This shift resulted in low agency participation, including missing data from major jurisdictions, making accurate, consistent national reporting difficult: https://counciloncj.org/methodology-and-data-sources-arrest-trends-in-america-1980-2024
Also: Table 43 is misleading because it hides the Hispanic crime rate, which is higher than the non-Hispanic crime rate.
Those racist bastards.
