Uniform Crime Reporting Program Data [United States]: Supplementary Homicide Reports, 2008

Since 1930, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has compiled the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) to serve as a periodic nationwide assessment of reported crimes not available elsewhere in the criminal justice system. Each year, this information is reported in four types of files: (1) Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest, (2) Property Stolen and Recovered, (3) Supplementary Homicide Reports (SHR), and (4) Police Employee (LEOKA) Data. The Supplementary Homicide Reports provide incident-based information on criminal homicides reported to the police. These homicides consist of murders, non-negligent manslaughter, and justifiable homicides. The data, provided monthly by UCR agencies, contain information describing the victim of the homicide, the offender, and the relationship between victim and offender.

自1930年起，美国联邦调查局（Federal Bureau of Investigation，FBI）便编制统一犯罪报告（Uniform Crime Reports，UCR），以此作为刑事司法体系内其他途径无法提供的全国性定期已报案犯罪评估依据。每年，此类信息以四类文件形式发布：（1）已知犯罪与逮捕破案情况（Offenses Known and Clearances by Arrest）；（2）被盗与追回财物（Property Stolen and Recovered）；（3）补充杀人报告（Supplementary Homicide Reports，SHR）；（4）警务人员（LEOKA）数据。补充杀人报告（SHR）提供向警方报案的杀人犯罪案件的逐案信息，此类杀人案件涵盖谋杀、非过失杀人以及正当杀人。该数据由参与统一犯罪报告计划的执法机构按月报送，包含杀人案件的受害者、作案者以及二者之间的关系信息。
