Accuracy verification statement for agency reports
The Attorney General's Office made extensive efforts to verify and correct all forms where numbers appeared incomplete or inaccurate. Following the March 1 deadline, calls were made to a number of agencies regarding incomplete or inaccurate data. To the extent that corrections could be determined, they were incorporated into the report.
In addition, all agencies were given the opportunity to review their final reports before publication and to make comments. At that point, corrections again were made for agencies and their comments have been included on individual city data sheets under the heading "Agency response."
The data verification process uncovered a difference in how various agencies reported and compiled arrest totals. The differing methods of compilation did not produce a significant statistical distinction and is not statistically relevant to the analysis.
