Hate Crimes by County and Bias Type: Beginning 2010

Under New York State’s Hate Crime Law (Penal Law Article 485), a person commits a hate crime when one of a specified set of offenses is committed targeting a victim because of a perception or belief about their race, color, national origin, ancestry, gender, religion, religious practice, age, disability, or sexual orientation, or when such an act is committed as a result of that type of perception or belief. These types of crimes can target an individual, a group of individuals, or public or private property. DCJS submits hate crime incident data to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program. Information collected includes number of victims, number of offenders, type of bias motivation, and type of victim.

依据纽约州《仇恨犯罪法》（《刑法》第485条），当行为人基于对受害人的种族、肤色、国籍、血统、性别、宗教、宗教习俗、年龄、残疾或性取向的认知或偏见实施特定类型的犯罪，或基于此类认知或偏见实施此类行为时，即构成仇恨犯罪。此类犯罪的侵害对象可涵盖个人、群体，以及公共或私人财产。纽约州刑事司法服务部（DCJS）向联邦调查局（FBI）的统一犯罪报告（Uniform Crime Reporting, UCR）计划提交仇恨犯罪事件数据。所收集的信息包括受害人数量、犯罪行为人数量、偏见动机类型以及受害人类型。
