Federal Justice Statistics Program: Arrests and Bookings for Federal Offenses, 1997 [United States]

The data contain records of arrests and bookings for federal offenses in the United States during fiscal year 1997. The data were constructed from the United States Marshals Service (USMS) Prisoner Tracking System database. Records include arrests made by federal law enforcement agencies (including the USMS), state and local agencies, and self-surrenders. Offenders arrested for federal offenses are transferred to the custody of the USMS for processing, transportation, and detention. The Prisoner Tracking System contains data on all offenders within the custody of the USMS. The data file contains variables from the original USMS files as well as additional analysis variables, or "SAF" variables, that denote subsets of the data. These SAF variables are related to statistics reported in the Compendium of Federal Justice Statistics, Tables 1.1-1.3. Variables containing identifying information (e.g., name, Social Security Number) were replaced with blanks, and the day portions of date fields were also sanitized in order to protect the identities of individuals. These data are part of a series designed by the Urban Institute (Washington, DC) and the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Data and documentation were prepared by the Urban Institute.

本数据集收录了1997财年美国联邦重罪的逮捕与登记记录，其数据源自美国法警局（United States Marshals Service, USMS）的囚犯追踪系统数据库。记录涵盖联邦执法机构（含美国法警局）、州及地方执法机构实施的逮捕行为，以及主动自首的相关情形。因联邦重罪被捕的罪犯将被移交至美国法警局监管，用于后续流程办理、押解与羁押。囚犯追踪系统收录了所有处于美国法警局监管下的罪犯相关数据。本数据集文件既包含美国法警局原始档案中的变量，也包含用于标注数据集子集的额外分析变量——SAF变量。此类SAF变量与《联邦司法统计汇编（Compendium of Federal Justice Statistics）》中表1.1至1.3所呈现的统计数据存在关联。为保护个人身份信息，所有包含识别信息的变量（如姓名、社会保险号）均已替换为空值，日期字段中的日期部分也已完成脱敏处理。本数据集为城市研究所（Urban Institute，华盛顿哥伦比亚特区）与美国司法统计局联合开发的系列数据之一，数据集及相关文档均由城市研究所编制完成。
