FAQ
FAQ
How is "CID Detectives Solve Rate" calculated?
This metric looks at cases assigned to CID detectives and closed in the previous calendar month. A cases is considered "solved" if it is "cleared by arrest" meaning that a person was either arrested, charged, or otherwise turned over to court for prosecution, or "cleared by exceptional means" meaning that the offender was identified and their location was known; there was sufficient evidence to support an arrest, charge or otherwise turning over to court for prosecution; however, circumstances outside of law enforcement control prohibited prosecution. This is consistent with the FBI's NIBRS definition of a "cleared" offense.
What are "CID Detectives"?
"CID" stands for "Criminal Investigation Department". The unit is the main investigative unit, made up of persons crimes and property crimes detectives, who investigate most of the offenses that require deeper examination beyond initial reports or an immediate arrest.
How often are the statistics updated?
Most metrics are updated daily. Some metrics refer to "last month", meaning the previous calendar month, and will posted on the first day of the subsequent calendar month.
