    Study Notes

    Crime Motivations and Types

    • Most hate crimes are motivated by racial hatred.

    Transnational Organized Crime

    • Unlawful activity committed by organized criminal groups that operate across national boundaries is known as transnational organized crime.

    Flash Robs

    • Flash robs are events where social media directs people to go to retail stores and rob them.

    Victimization

    • The elderly are more likely than younger people to be victimized by strangers.

    Computer Crime

    • Phishing is a form of computer crime.

    NIBRS and UCR

    • For a study examining multiple crimes that occur within a single incident, NIBRS (National Incident-Based Reporting System) is the preferred data source over UCR (Uniform Crime Reports).

    Terrorism

    • Foreign terrorism only includes acts of terrorism that occur outside the United States.

    Identity Theft

    • Shoulder surfing and dumpster diving are techniques used to commit identity theft.

    Crime Index and UCR

    • The main reason the Crime Index is no longer included in the UCR is that there are so many larcenies that this crime overshadows more serious index crimes.

    Crime Classification

    • A classification of crimes along a particular dimension, such as legal categories, offender motivation, victim behavior, or the characteristics of individual offenders, is known as a crime typology.

    National Crime Statistics

    • For national crime statistics and data on crimes reported to the police, the UCR is the preferred source of data.
