REPORT CALLS BY OFFENSE - YEARS 1999 Through 2007

Offenses reported to the Sheriff's Department are not always chargeable crimes or true offenses. Though the Sheriff's Department generates a greater number of incidents, or calls for service, that deputies respond to, not all incidents require an offense report.  For example, the Department receives many "suspicious activity" calls in a year.  However, only 1 or 2 may require a report because an arrest is made on that call or criminal activity has been found.  The statistics provided below are generated by the use of the Department's computer system and represent the majority of criminal activity in the County.  This system has been in place since July of 1999.  During the years 1999 and 2000, many offenses were improperly classified and are therefore not noted in a proper offense category.
