Hate Crimes Statistics: 1995-2006

 

Hate Crimes statistics collected by the FBI under the Uniform Crime Reporting program. Please Note that these figures represent Incidents, and not Offenses or Victims or Known Offenders. This means that other charts on the web may show other figures. These figures are based on the FBI reports, which are updated before being posted on the FBI web page. Please review these facts before sending us e-mail that our figures are wrong. Thanks. To see the original reports, visit: http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/ucr.htm#hate
