Byrne Governor of the State of New Jersey Honorable Members of the Senate and Assembly of the State of New Jersey Dear Governor and Members of the Legislature: Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 52:17B-5.5, I am submitting the twelfth annual report on crime in New Jersey. This information is based on statistics submitted to the New Jersey Uniform Crime Reporting System by every New Jersey law enforcement agency for the year 1978. This report has been prepared to provide reliable and comprehensive analysis of crime data for the criminal justice cor:ununity. The gr<~phic and statistical representation of the various crime factors should assist law enforcement administrators in planning programs to combat crime throughout New Jersey. It would have been impossible to complete this report without the cooperation of New Jersey's municipal, county, state, and other law enforcement agencies, 601 of whom contributed to this effort in 1978. It is with appreciation to these dedicated public servants, and in the interest of more effective law enforcement for all the citizens of New Jersey, that this twelfth annual Uniform Crime Report is submitted.
