    INTRODUCTION

    In 1986, the California Department of Justice (DOJ) rst

    recognized the importance of hate crime statistics in

    California in a report submitted to the Legislature, inresponse to Senate Bill 2080 (Watson), which providedrecommendations for preliminary steps to establish a

    statewide hate crime database (Appendix 1). Theseefforts lead to the enactment of California Penal Code

    section 13023, requiring the Attorney General to submitan annual report to the Legislature regarding crimes

    motivated by the victims race, ethnicity, religion, gender,sexual orientation, national origin, or physical or mentaldisability as reported by law enforcement agencies.

    The Attorney Generals Hate Crime Reporting Program

    was implemented in September 1994 and data collection

    began in the fall of 1994. Law enforcement agencies wererequested to identify and submit all reports of hate crimesoccurring on or after July 1, 1994 through December31, 1994. In 1995, California District Attorneys began

    reporting hate crime prosecutorial information to the DOJ,including total cases referred, hate crime case lings,

    criminal case lings, hate crime convictions and other

    convictions. In 1995, the DOJ published its rst report.

    A hate crime, as dened by California Penal section422.55, is 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 orgroup with one or more of these actual or perceivedcharacteristics. Law enforcement agency crime reports

    and a web-enabled data collection system are used tosubmit hate crime data to the DOJ. Each crime report

    includes information about bias motivation, type of crime,location of crime, number of victims, and the number of

    known suspects.

    Hate crimes are not separate distinct crimes but rather

    traditional offenses motivated by the offenders bias. Ahate crime event may include the occurrence of one or

    more criminal offenses, committed against one or more

    victims, by one or more suspects/perpetrators. Also, vic-tims can have more than one offense committed againstthem. In 2007 there were 1,426 total hate crime events,which included 1,931 offenses, 1,764 victims, and 1,627

    known suspects.

    All police agencies and district attorney offices inCalifornia, in cooperation with the DOJ, have developed

    local data collection programs and submitted the hatecrime statistics for this 2007 edition of Hate Crime inCalifornia.

    2 HATE CRIME IN CALIFORNIA, 2007

    To ensure quality and consistency, the DOJ requests thateach agency establish a two-tier review process for bias

    motivated crimes before they are reported to the DOJ ashate crimes.

    Hard copy reports of hate crimes received by the DOJare reviewed by at least two staff members of the Hate

    Crime Unit before the data are included in the aggregatereports. All hard copy crime reports that meet the bias

    motivated criteria stated in Penal Code section 422.55are coded in a standard format by DOJ staff. Whenagencies begin to enter data electronically, they are still

    required to submit a hard copy crime report. The DOJstaff compares electronic data to hard copy reports until

    it has been determined the agency is qualied to enter

    data electronically. When an agency has been qualied,a hard copy crime report is no longer required.

    If a report is either incomplete, does not contain

    sufcient information to determine whether there was

    a bias motivation, or appears not to be a hate crime,

    the reporting agency is notied. The agency can either

    provide additional information or agree with the DOJ

    that the event in question does not meet the denitionof a hate crime. Those crimes meeting the denition of

    a hate crime are entered into the Hate Crime Statistical

    System. The data reected in this report are gathered

    from this system.

    The primary unit of count for hate crimes is the event or

    incident. Other units of count include offenses, victims,known suspects, and violent and property crime types.In each hate crime event, the DOJ counts the total

    number of victims, the total number of known suspects,and the total number of criminal offenses involved in the

    event. These totals are also categorized and counted

    by type of bias motivation (anti-black, anti-Hispanic,anti-male homosexual (gay), anti-Jewish, etc.), type ofcrime (murder, aggravated assault, burglary, destruction/vandalism, etc.), the crime location (residence, street,

    synagogue, school, etc.), and the type of victim (individualor property).

    Source: Tables 1, 7A, and 7B.Note: The number of hate crime lings with dispositions includes cases referred in 2007 and prior years.

    In March 1995, the Attorney General requested all districtattorneys and city attorneys to submit summary dataof complaints led and convictions secured. The 2007

    District Attorneys and City Attorneys Report File of HateCrime Cases contains summary data on cases referred

    to each district attorney or city attorney, as well as lings

    and convictions that occurred between January 1, 2007

    and December 31, 2007.

    At the request of district attorneys, collection procedureswere modied to ensure the collection of all juvenile case

    data. Therefore, the overview below contains all juvenileand adult prosecution data submitted for 2007.

    The reader is cautioned to keep in mind when reviewingprosecutorial data that the number of crimes reported are

    not always consistent with the number of prosecutionsbecause crimes are often reported and prosecuted in

    different years. Also, the number of crimes reportedby law enforcement is much higher than the number

    of crimes that are actually prosecuted.

    Notes: Zero indicates that no case information was reported in this reporting category.

    The number of complaints filed by county district attorneys and city attorneys or the number of cases

    that resulted in hate crime convictions cannot be linked to the number of hate crimes reported by law

    enforcement agencies.1Does not track hate crime cases referred to their offices.2Tracks only total number of hate crimes filed by their office.3Does not track cases referred to their branch offices; tracks total number of hate crimes filed by the Hate

    Crime Unit and branch offices.4The counts for these agencies in the "cases referred" category are determined by adding the total number

    of cases filed by each agency plus the number of cases rejected by each agency. These counts

    represent the miminum cases that would have had to be received in each agency in order to file or reject

    the number of cases reported in these two reporting categories.

    48 HATE CRIME IN CALIFORNIA, 2007

    CrimE DAtA

    Local law enforcement agencies are required to submit monthly copies of hate crime reports to the Department ofJustice (DOJ) in compliance with Section 13023 of the California Penal Code. Section 422.55 of the California PenalCode denes a hate crime as a criminal act committed, in whole or in part, because of one or more of the followingactual 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 perceivedcharacteristics.

    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 morevictims, by one or more suspects/perpetrators. Also, victims can have more than one offense committed against

    them.

    2) Hate crimes reported by law enforcement agencies are counted in a very specic way. In each hate crime event,the DOJ counts the total number of victims, the total number of known suspects, and the total number of criminaloffenses in one event. These totals are then classied 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 September 1994. Law enforcement agenciessubmit copies of initial crime reports to the DOJ. Crime reports that were submitted as hate crimes, but laterdetermined to be unfounded, were not included.

    4) The DOJ requested that each law enforcement agency establish procedures incorporating a two-tier review(decision-making) process. The rst level is done by the initial ofcer who responds to the suspected hate crimeincident. At the second level, each report is reviewed by at least one other ofcer to conrm that the event was, in

    fact, a hate crime.

    5) Caution should be used when making jurisdictional comparisons. The following factors should be considered: culturaldiversity and population density; size of law enforcement agencies; and the training received in the identicationof hate crimes by law enforcement ofcers in each jurisdiction.

    6) The following factors may inuence the volume of hate crimes reported to the DOJ:

    Cultural practices of individuals and their likeliness to report hate crimes to law enforcementagencies.

    Strength and investigative emphasis of law enforcement agencies. Policies of law enforcement agencies. Community policing policies.

    APPENDICES49

    7) From 1995 to 2001, a hierarchy rule was used to count the various types of hate crimes (e.g., murder, intimidation,vandalism, etc.). This counting 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 thathad two offenses a simple assault and an aggravated assault would be counted as two aggravated assaults.Trend analysis for these years can be done, since the unit of count is consistent.

    Starting in 2002, the Department of Justice began counting eachoffense in eachhate crime event, whether they

    had one offense (a majority of events) or multiple offenses (a minority of events). This change in counting was

    undertaken to more accurately count each type of criminal offense. Using this new standard of count, comparisons

    and trend analysis should be limited to 2002 and forward.

    8) A signicant reason for the large disparity between individual victims and victims that are an entity is due to the

    Criminal Justice Statistics Centers use of the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting program standards. A property crime

    (e.g., a business, religious organization, government institution, etc.) can only be counted as one victim, whereasa crime committed against an individual can have more than one victim per crime event.

    CoUntY DiStriCt AttornEY AnD CitY AttornEYProSECUtoriAl DAtA

    The following information and limitations should be considered when interpreting hate crime cases:

    1) To show the criminal justice systems response to hate crimes, in March 1995, the Attorney General requested all

    district attorneys and city attorneys to submit summary data of complaints led and convictions secured.

    2) The 2007 District Attorneys and City Attorneys Report File of Hate Crime Cases contains summary data based oncases referred to each district attorney or city attorney, and lings and convictions which occurred between January

    1 through December 31, 2007.

    3) When viewing prosecutorial data, the reader is advised that relating the number of hate crimes reported by lawenforcement agencies to the number of hate crimes prosecuted by district attorneys and city attorneys is notpossible. 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 thelatter requires an arrested defendant who can be prosecuted in a court of law.

    4) All prosecutorial data includes hate crimes committed by bothjuvenile and adult defendants.

    5) For prosecutorial agencies that do not track/count the number of cases referred in their ofces for various reasons

    (e.g., information system limitations, internal organizational structure, geographical organizations capabilities, etc.),the counts for agencies in the cases referred category are determined by adding the total number of cases led

    by each agency plus the number of cases rejected for prosecution by each agency. These counts represent the

    minimum cases that would have had to be received in each agency in order to le or reject the number of cases

    reported in these two reporting categories.
