I INTRODUCTION I The West Virginia Uniform Crime Reporting Program is the first of many steps to be taken in the establishment of an effective State-wide Criminal Justice Iflformation System. I This particular phase of the CJIS is oriented toward law enforcement and has brought about a statewide uniform method of collecting crime statistical data, producing a consolidated annual report concerning crime in West Virginia, and reporting state-wide I crime statistics from a single agency to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
I National Uniform Crime Reporting Program The counterpart of the state-wide UCR Program is the National UCR Program which is under the direction of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This national program I is the result of a need for nation-wide and uniform compilation of law enforcement statistics. Uniform Crime Reports were first collected in 1930 after being developed by a committee of the International Association of Chiefs of Police. I Today the IACP continues to serve in an advisory capacity to the FBI in its operation of the program. Crime statistics voluntarily submitted by individual law enforcement agencies from I all fifty states are presented annually in the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports Publication entitled "Crime in the United States." In the last several years the FBI has been actively assisting individual states in the I development of state-wide programs of law enforcement statistics compatible with the National UCR Program. In taking advantage of the invaluable assistance provided, West Virginia has developed its own state-wide program for collection of law enforcement I statistics.
I West Virginia Uniform Crime Reporting Program The West Virginia Uniform Crime Reporting Program involves the uniform compilation, classification, and analysis of crime statistics reported by all law I enforcement agencies of the state pursuant to guides and regulations prescribed by law. The West Virginia Legislature in the Criminal Identification Bureau Act of 1971 established the Uniform Crime Reporting Statute. I The responsibility and authority for collection and dissemination of UCR data was given to the West Virginia Department of Public Safety (State Police). This progr.m I became operational January 1, 1972.
Criminal Identification Bureau Act of 1971 I Chapter 15, Article 2, Section 24, Sub-Section i (i) All state, county and municipal law enforcement agencies shall submit to the bureau uniform crime reports setting forth their activities in connection with law I enforcement. It shall be the duty of the bureau to adopt and promulgate rules and I 1 I I I regulations prescribing the forms, general content, time and manner of submission of such Uniform Crime Reports. Willful or repeated failure by any state, county or municipal I law enforcement official to submit the Uniform Crime repvrts as required in this article shall constitute neglect of duty in public office. The Bureau shall correlate the reports submitted to it and shall compile and submit to the governor and the legislature semi I annual reports based on such reports. A copy of such reports shall be furnished to all prosecuting attorneys and law enforcement agencies. I Purpose and Objectives In keeping with the recommendation of the President's Commission on Law I Enforcement and the Administration of Justice, the West Virginia UCR Program was planned for eventual growth into a complete and integrated offender based Criminal Justice Information System. Under this program, each offender arrested in West Virginia wi" be tracked through the entire criminal justice system from time of arrest through the I courts to the correctional system where his exit (parole, expiration of sentence, etc.) will be recorded. I n this manner, a complete "rap sheet" on individual offenders will be available for use by the police, courts and correctional agencies in West Virginia. In I addition, statistical data derived from the CJIS Program will provide assistance in determining the overall efficiency of the criminal justice system in West Virginia and will make effective management studies possible. I The fundamental objectives of the West Virginia UCR Program are: 1. Inform the governor, legislature, other governmental officials, and the public as to the nature of the crime problem in West Virginia-its magnitude and its I trends. 2. Provide law enforcement administrators with criminal statistics for adminis trative and operational use. I 3. Determine who commits crimes by age, sex, race and other attributes in order to find the proper focus for crime prevention and enforcement. I 4. Provide base data and statistics to measure the workload and effectiveness of West Virginia's Criminal Justice System. 5. Provide base data and statistics to measure the effects of prevention and I deterrence programs. 6. Provide base data and statistics for research to improve the efficiency, effectiveness and performance of criminal justice agencies. I 7. Provide base data to assist in the assessment of social and other causes of crime for the development of theories of criminal behavior. I Development I Effective July 1, 1972, a federal grant was awarded to the Department of Public Safety by the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration on a 60/40 federal-state matching basis. The money provided was used to initiate a state-wide Uniform Crime Reporting Program. I 2 I I I I
I For approximately two months thereafter the UCR Staff made studies of the federal program, as well as several state UCR Programs which were operational at that time. Pamphlets explaining the UCR Program and questionnaires concerning each law enforcement agency's participation were distributed. After determining the number of law I enforcement agencies which would participate, forms, tally books, and the UCR Guide Manual were developed, printed and distributed to all contributing agencies. During the development phase, numerous workshops were held in various parts of I the state to present the UCR Program in detail to participating agencies. Since that time, supplemental workshops have been held as needed. Also, the Department of Public Safety has incorporated into the curriculum of the State Police I Training Academy a basic course as to the why and how of Uniform Crime Reporting. A pilot program was maintained for two months prior to the implementation of the I permanent collection and recording of data. This pilot program served mainly as a method by which to arrange data flow and solve other in-house operational difficulties.
I Reporting Procedure Under the West Virginia UCR Statute, participating West Virginia law enforcement agencies are required to submit specified Uniform Crime Reports. The necessary I information for each of the required reports is gathered from each agency's record of complaints, investigations and arrests. I Crime data and information is submitted by state, county and municipal law enforcement agencies on a monthly basis. On a monthly basis, municipal police, state police and county sheriff's departments I report the number of offenses known to them' in the following crime categories: (1) Criminal Homicide (2) Forcible Rape I (3) Robbery (4) Assault (5) Breaking and Entering (6) Larceny I (7) Motor Vehicle Theft The count of offenses is taken from the record of complaints received by law enforcement agencies from victims, witnesses, other sources or discovered by them I during their own operation. Complaints determined by subsequent investigation to be unfounded are eliminated from the count. The resulting number of "actual offenses known to law enforcement agencies" in these crime categories is reported without regard to I whether anyone is arrested, stolen property is recovered, local prosecutive policy, or any other consideration. Reported offenses are recorded by the municipality and county in which they occur, rather than to the agency which may investigate, arrest, or otherwise in some manner dispose of the case. Municipal law enforcement agencies report those I crimes which are committed within the cities, county sheriff's departments report those crimes which occur in the counties outside the city, and state police report all crimes I known to them which occur in the county outside the city. Law enforcement agencies also I 3 I I I report, on a monthly basis, supplemental offense information such as the value of property stolen and recovered as well as circumstances surrounding homicides and other pertinent I data. Additional monthly reports of persons arrested are submitted. These reports provide information concerning the age, sex and race of persons arrested by each individual law enforcement agency. Also, a police disposition of all juveniles arrested is collected. I
Annual report forms contain data such as the number of persons formally charged and dispositions. Police employee data is also collected annually. I
Verification Process I An obvious concern in the collection of crime statistics for law enforcement agencies throughout the state is the uniformity and accuracy of data received. Program aides such as guides and instructions do not necessarily guarantee the accuracy and I correctness of the reports submitted by the contributors. Additional controls therefore are necessary. Each report received by the UCR Section is recorded, examined and verified for I mathematical accur::wy and possibly more important for reasonableness. The verification process includes numerous checks to ensure the validity of information. The elimination of duplication of reporting by individual contributors receives particular attention. Minor typographical errors are corrected by direct telephone contact with the contributor while I all other errors are resolved by written correspondence, or by personal contact of a field r~presentative or member of the UCR Staff. I
Population Data The computation of crime rates as they appear in this report by municipality, county I and state are based on 1977 population estimates provided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation through the cooperation and assistance of the United States Bureau of Census. I Monthly and annual Uniform Crime Reports currently received from 284 municipal, county and state law enforcement agencies in West Virginia represent 100 percent of the estimated West Virginia population. I The West Virginia State Police maintain at least one detachment in each of the 55 counties throughout the state. In some counties, there are as many as four detachments. Each detachment is mainly responsible for law enforcement in the rural areas of the I respective county. Therefore, there are two law enforcement agencies (state police and sheriff'S department) in each county which serve the same area and essentially the same population. I , Because of this fact, to attempt to compute a crime rate for each of the two agencies wouid have been highly unreasonable. This problem was resolved by combining activity reported by both agencies into I one category hereafter referred to in this report as "rural county." However, the number of offenses and percent of offenses cleared is listed separately for each agency. I 4 I I ------I I CLASSIFICATION OF OFFENSES I Uniformity in reporting under the West Virginia System is based upon the proper classification of offenses by police. I The adoption of the Federal System of Uniform Crime Reporting included the utilization of the offense classifications of that system. Law enforcement in this state has made accurate application of those classifications in the reports submitted to the West I Virginia Uniform Crime Reporting System. In view of the need for compatibility with the federal system "offenses" under the program are not distinguished by designation of "high misdemeanors," "misdemeanors," I or violations of municipal ordinances. The explanations of offense classifIcations may vary slightly with those employed at the federal level because the language used is that familiar to law enforcement in this state. However, the major categories of offense I classification remain the same as those employed on the national level. I ?art I Offenses Offense data consists of information that has been extracted from reports c f Part I crimes that have come to the attention of West Virginia law enforcement agencies. In general, Part I crimes are those serious crimes that are usually reported to law I enforcement agencies. They consist of the following offenses:

I PROFILE I STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA
I On June 20, 1863, under the administration of President Abraham Lincoln, West Virginia bec'ame the 35th state in the Union. This was the only state to be born out of the Civil War. From the beginning of the Civil War, tile people in Western Virginia fought I against seceding from the Union. On June 20, 1861, a new government of Virginia known as the "Restored Government" was formed by the Wheeling Convention. This government pledged its support to the Federal Government in Wa,·.~~'~'gton. At a meeting in Wheeling, May 13, 1862, the "Restored Government" passed an ~ct giving formal consent to the I forming of a new state. On May 29, 1862, a bill was presented to the Congress ofthe United States requesting that a new state be formed and admitted to the Union. The bill providing that West Virginia become a new state was passed by the Congress and signed into law by I President Abraham Lincoln on December 31, 1862. The boundary lines of West Virginia, totaling 1,170 miles, which, forthe most part, follow the course of rivers or the line of mountain ranges, encloses a total area of only I 24,282.45 square miles. One hundred fifty (150) of these miles is water surface. West Virginia extends its panhandle over a surprisingly wide range of longitude and latitude, The eastern most tip has the same longitude as Rochester, New York and most westerly as Port Huron, Michigan; the Northwest panhandle pushes into a latitude well north of I Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; while in the opposite direction the state dips further south than Richmond, Virginia. West Virginia is bordered by the states of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, Kentucky, and Virginia. I The natural topography of 'Nest Virginia is as irregular as its outline. The range in elevation is from 240 feet near Harpers Ferry to 4,860 feet on Spruce Knob giving it a mean altitude of 1,500 feet, the highest of any state East of the Mississippi I River. Most of the State lies in the Allegheny Plateau and Allegheny Highlands Region. I This corrugated contour, which rightfully earned West Virginia i~s nickname, "Mountain State", could easily be described as "Land of Ten Thousand Valleys." West Virginia, composed of 55 counties ranging in area of 88.58 square miles to I 1,046.34 square miles, is located between the large population centers of the East and Midwest. Four out of five of the principal United States metropolitan market areas-New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Detroit-are within a 500 mile radius of the state's geographical center, which is near Sutton in Braxton County, Within this 500 mile circle, I much more than half of the nation's people reside and more than half of the nation's income is earned. In 1977, estimated population is 1,859,000. Huntington with 74,420 persons is the I most populated city in the State, while Charleston with 71,505 is the State Capitol. With a density of 74.3 square iniles, West Virginia is primarily a rural state. Waterborn commerce in West Virginia has increased steadily over the years. Three I hundred and fifty-five miles of navigable water in the State have been made possible by the continuous work of the United State Corps of Engineers in the development of river I transportation facilities and flood control. I 11 I I I Hilly terrain and ample rainfall help to produce one of West Virginia's high quality resources-timber. Seventy-four percent of the land area is in foresterial areas. West Virginia hardwoods are much sought after by furniture manufacturers across the continent and over seas. Approximately 95 percent of all timber cut is being shipped out of I state. Natural gas liquids and petroleum are the second most important mineral resources I in the State. The high grade Pennsylvania grade crude oil is highly desirable by industry because of its superiority as a lubricant. The chemical industry in West Virginia is the largest and expanding more rapidly in the Ohio and Kanawha River Valleys. Other natural resources found in abundance in West Virginia are limestone, sand and gravel, salt and I metals. The Bureau of Vocational, Technical and Adult Education, cooperating with Federal, State and local educational and other agencies, plans and promotes vocational I education programs directed to serve the total citizenry of the state in preparing for employment and productive citizenry. These programs are provided in regular or comprehensive secondary schools, specialized schools, county or area vocational I centers, mUlti-county vocational centers, adult centers, post-secondary institutions, and colleges and universities. West Virginia is a state with an exceptional outdoor recreation base. Its varied I topngraphy, climate, and resources give it the potential of being a year-round recreation land serving the people of the Eastern United States. Rivers and streams are very important in the State's recreational picture. Some of the finest fishing streams in the East are found in West Virginia and many of them have retained their natural setting and attract I visitors in evergrowing numbers. State and national forests have been designated in West Virginia to preserve our "wild'n wonderful" woodlands. Two federal forests-the Monongalia National Forest and the George Washington National Forest-are located in I Eastern West Virginia. The nine state forests offer some 77,000 acres of picturesque rugged wilderness, inspiring views, and remote seclusion. Along with these forests, West Virginia also offers 33 state parks for recreation. I The facts set forth in this brief profile are presented in hope that they will help the reader get a better understanding of West Virginia's crime picture in our Sixth Annual Crime Report.

I CRIME FACTORS
I Statistics gathered under the Uniform Crime Reporting Program are submitted by the law enforcement agencies of West Virginia and project a state-wide view of crime. Awareness of the presence of certain crime factors, which may influence the resulting I volume and type of statistics presented, is necessary if fair and equitable conclusions are to be drawn. These crime-influencing factors are present, to some degree, in every community and their presence affects, in varying degrees, the crime experience of that community. Attempts at comparison of crime figures between communities should not be I made without first considering the individual factors present in each community. Crime, as an outgrowth of society,remains a social problem of grave concern and the police art:: limited in their role to its suppression and detection. As stated by the I President's Commission on Law Enforcement and Administration of Criminal Justice in their report "The Challenge of Crime In A Free Society" (1967-Page 92): I "But the fact that the police deal daily with crime does not mean that they have unlimited power to prevent it, or reduce it, or deter it. The police did not create and cannot resolve the social I conditions that stimulate crime. They did not start and cannot stop the convulsive social changes that are taking place in America. Tht::y do not enact I the laws that they are required to enforce, nor do they dispose of the criminals they arrest. The police are only one part of the criminal justice system; the criminal justice system is only one part I of the government; and the government is only one part of society. Insofar as crime is a social phenomenon, crime prevention is the responsibility of every part of society. The criminal I process is limited to case by case operations, one criminal or one crime at a time." I Set forth below are some of the conditions which will, by type and volume, affectthe crime that occurs from place to place: Density and size of the community population and the metropolitan area of which it I is a part. Composition of the population with reference particularly to age, sex and race. I Economic status of the population. Relative stability of population, including commuters, seasonal, and other transient types. I Climate, including seasonal weather conditions. Educational, recreational, and religious characteristics. I Standards governing appointments to the police force. Policies of the prosecuting officials and the courts. I Attitude of the public toward law enforcement problems. I 13 I I I The Administrative and investigative efficiency of the local law enforcement agency, including the degree of adherence to crime reporting standards. I I CRIME INDEX I The tabulations presented in the tables, graphs, and charts in this publication indicate the volume and distribution of crime in West Virginia on the basis of a Crime Index. The crime figures are broken down by municipal, county and state totals. I The Uniform Crime Reporting Program utilizes seven crime classifications to e' ablish an index to measure the trend and distribution of crime in the United States. T se crimes-Murder, Forcible Rape, Robbery, Felonious Assault, Burglary, Larceny, and I Jr Vehicles Theft-are counted by law enforcement agencies as the crimes become f'ilown to them. These crimes were selected for use in the Crime Index because, as a group, they represent the most common local crime probelm. They are all serious crimes, I either by their very nature or due to the volume in which they occur. Offenses of Murder, Forcible Rape, Robbery, and Felonious Assault are categorized as Violent Crimes. Offenses of Burglary, Larceny, and Motor Vehicle Theft are classed as Crimes Against Property. I It is believed to point out that there is no way of determining the total number (\f crimes which are committed. Many criminal acts occur which are not reported to official sources. Estimates as to the level of unreported crime can be developed through costly I victim interview surveys, but this, of course, does not remedy the reluctance of victims and/or other members of society to report all crimes to law enforcement agencies. In light of this situation, the best source for obtaining a count of crime is the next I logical universe; namely, crimes which come to police attention. The crimes used in the Crime Index are those considered to be most consistently reported to police and the computations of crime trends and crime rates are prepared using this universe-Offenses I Known to Police. During 1977, 41,468 Crime Index Offenses were known to police. The crime counts set forth in this publication are actual offenses established by police investigation. When police receive a complaint of crime and the follow-up I investigation discloses no crime occurred, it is "unfounded". I Calculation of Rates and Percentages This report provides police executives with a yardstick with which to measure local problems, but to utilize the administrative tool, the local data must be converted into terms I of rates and percentages. Simple formulas for this purpose are presented below for the benefit of those who might feel the need for them. I Crime Rates Perhaps the most used of all crime statistics is the Crime Rate, which generally I refers to the number of offenses per 100,000 inhabitants. It can be calculated for any city 14 I I I I regardless of the size and may be arrived at under either of two procedures. One formula would be to divide the number of crimes by the population and to multiply the answer by I 100,000. EXAMPLE:
I Crime Rate 1,980 Robberies =.003960 x 100,000= 369.0 I 500,000 Population per i 00,000 I persons
Another procedure generally considered somewhat more simple, particularly if I crime rates for a number of different offense classifications are to be calculated, is the so called reciprocal method. As in the above example, it may be assumed that a city has a population of 500,000 and 1,980 Robberies occurred during the year. Divide 100,000 by the number of inhabitants of the city (500,000). The quotient may be considered the reciprocal I and multiplied by the number of crimes in each class to obtain the rate per 100,000. The reciprocal in this instance would be .200000, and an illustration of the calculation of the crime rate is as follows: I EXAMPLE: Number Crime Reciprocal of Rate I Robberies
100,000 =.200000 =369.0 500,000 Population I per 100,000 I persons I
The reciprocal once determined can be used to calculate all rates until a new I population figure is available. All Crime Rates which were calculated forthe total number of offens~s committed in I the state were based on the number of offenses per 100,000 persons. However, due to the fact that no city within the state has a population over 100,000, calculations for each individual contributing agency were based on the number of I offenses per 1,000 persons. I I 15 I I I Clearance Rates . For Uniform Crime Reporting purposes, a Crime Index Offense is cleared when a law enforcement agency has identified the offender, there is enough evidence to charge I him and he is actually taken into custody. The arrest of one person can clear several crimes or several persons may be arrested in the process of clearing one crime. Crime solutions are also recorded in exceptional circumstances when some I element beyond law enforcement control precludes formal charges against the offender. An offense may be exceptionally cleared when it falls into one of the following categories: I 1. The offender commits suicide. 2. A double murder occurs (two persons kill each other). 3. The offender dies after making a confession (dying declaration). I 4. The offender is killed by a law enforcement officer. 5. The offender confesses to committing the crime while already in custody for I another crime or serving a sentence. 6. The offender is prosecuted in another city for a different crime by federal, state or local authorities, or for the same offense, and the other jurisdiction refuses to re I lease the offender. 7. Another jurisdiction refuses to extradite the offender. I 8. The victim of a crime refuses to cooperate in the prosecution. 9. The offender is prosecuted for a less serious charge than the one for which he was arrested. I 10. The offender is a juvenile who is handled by a verbal or written notice to the parents in instances involving minor offenses such as petit larceny. I For the year of 1977,22.7 percent of all Index Crimes were cleared as compared to 22.1 percent cleared during 1976. The percentage of Violent Crimes cleared was 64.6 percent in 1977 and 68.6 percent in 1976 while the clearance rate for Property Crimes was I 19.6 percent in 1977 and 18.8 percent in 1976.

Murders comprised 4.0 percent of the total for the Violent Crime category and less I than one half of one percent of the total Crime Index Offenses. August recorded the highest number of Murders, with 14 offenses, while December had the second highest with 13. I There were 6.1 Murder victims per 100,000 population in West Virginia. Males accounted for 71.1 percent of the Murder victims; 83.4 percent of the victims I were white. The largest number of victims, 16, falls in the 30-34 age group. Firearms were used in 82 of the Murders reported, with handguns being used in 46 I of those. A total of 105 Murders were cleared by arrest or exceptional clearance, a clearance I rate of 92.9 percent. Adults were involved in 100 of the clearances. There were 110 persons arrested for Murder offenses; 96 of those arrested were males, 13 were under 18, and 93 were white.

For I the purpose of Uniform Crime Reporting, rape is divided into two categories: (1) Rape by Force; and (2) Attempted Rape. Carnal abuse without force (statutory rape) and other sex offenses are not included. ~m Forcible Rape differs from other violent crimes in that the victim in many cases, is hesitant in reporting the offense to police, The rigors of court procedures, embarrassment and fear of any accompa'lying stigma have a deterent effect on the victim's willingness to ;L~ make the crime known to police. The presence of a prior relationship between victim and perpetrator makes the determination of the act of force difficult to establish, and the usual clandestine nature of the offense presents a problem in verification, I FORCIBLE RAPE SUMMARY 1977 I A total of 241 Forcible Rape Offenses were reported for 1977. Forcible Rapes comprised 8,6 percent of the total for the Violent Crime Category and less than one percent of the total Crime Index Offenses. I June recorded the highest number ot Forcible Rapes with 30. ,'t, A total of 167 Forcible Rapes were cleared by arrest or exceptional clearance, a I clearance rate of 69,3 percent.

The element of personal confrontation is always present in this crime. Under the Uniform Crime Reporting Program, all assaults or attempts to rob are included. Robberies are reported in four I general categories - gun; knife or cutting instrument; hands, fists, feet, etc.; and other dangerous weapons. As a general rule, robbery differs from larceny in that it is aggravated by the element of force or the threat of force. I Robbery, as a crime of violence, has a serious impact on the victim. In many instances, serious injury results. Oftentime, along with physical injury or without, the victim suffers mental disturbance. Such damage is immeasurable. This is emphasized I when the attempt to rob results in the death of the victim. Of course, in this case, the robbery would not be scored since the more serious offense, murder, would be reported and the robbery would serve as the motive. The placing of a dollar value, however, on the damage resulting from this type of offense is an attempt to measure that which is I immeasurable. ROBBERY SUMMARY I 1977 A total of 775 Robbery Offenses were reported for 1977. I Robberies comprised 27.7 percent of the total for the Violent Crime category and 1.9 percent of the total Crime Index Offenses. February recorded the highest number of Robberies with 96 offenses. I The total dollar value of Robbery offenses was $445,114, an average of $574for each offense. A total of 305 Robberies were cleared by arrest or exceptional clearance, a I clearance rate of 39.4 percent. Adults were involved in 261 of the clearances. There were 369 persons arrested for Robbery offenses; 342 of those arrested were I males, 77 were under 18, and 316 were white.

The use or attempted use of a dangerous weapon in an assault or the serious injury I inflicted by hands, fists, or feet separates this offense from those assaults categorized as "simple" and not felonious in nature. The victim of an actual assault of this type may suffer serious injury or permanent I disability and all assaults to kill and attempts to kill are recorded in this area. As with murder, the use of weapons to inflict these serious injuries make this offense a subject for I analysis.

Data collection for this offense is further categorized as to forcible entries, unlawful I entries where no force is used, and attempted entries. As with other nonviolent crimes, the motive of personal gain coupled with the element of opportunity, results in the commission of this offense by both the amateur and I the professional perpetrator. Only the absence of confrontation and the use of force separate this crime from Robbery of the violent crime group. However, detection during commission many times results in a confrontation of the victim by the perpetrator I demonstrating why this offense is considered the most serious of the nonviolent crime group. The volume of this offense presents the police with a serious enforcement probelm I made more difficult in many areas by the lack of sufficient personnel to act as a deterrent and to provide successful solutions of these crimes. I BREAKING AND ENTERING SUMMARY 1977 I A total of 10,957 Breaking and Entering offenses were reported for 1977. Breaking and Entering comprised 28.3 percent of the total for the Non-Violent Crime category and 26.4 percent of the total Crime Index Offenses. I December recorded the highest number of Breaking and Enterings with 1,050 offenses. There were 589.4 Breaking and Enterings per 100,000 population in West Virginia. I Breaking and Enterings of residences accuunted for 5,938 of the total offenses; 6,408 of the total offenses were at night. I The total dollar value for Breaking and Enterinl] offenses was $4,495,753 an average of $410 for each offense. A total of 1,987 Breaking and Enterings were cleared by arrest or exceptional I clearance, a clearance rate of 18.1 percent. Adults were involved in 1,370 of the clearances.

It includes crimes such as shoplifting, pocket-picking, purse snatching, thefts from autos, and the theft of auto parts and accessories. Motor Vehicle Theft is excluded from this category for crime reporting purposes, inasmuch as it is a separate Crime Index Offense. I Larceny offenses cleared by police arrest are dramatically affected by the nature of the crime. As with other Non-Violent Crimes, opportunity and stealth, working in favor of I the perpetrator and against police detection, reduce solutions for this offense. As with other offenses against property, Larceny is primarily a crime of opportunity. Types of Larcenies will differ in volume depending upon the opportunity for theft offered I in a given area. When average value is applied to the reported crimes in this category, the dollar loss to victims was $200. It is true that a portion of goods stolen was recovered and returned to I the victims, but the relatively low percentage of crimes cleared by arrest, and the lack of specific identification characteristics on such property indicates these recoveries will not materially reduce the overall loss. In addition, many offenses in this category, particularly where the value of goods stolen is small, never come to police attention. I LARCENY-THEFT SUMMARY I 1977 A total of 24, 726 Larceny-Theft offenses were reported for 1977. I Larceny-Theft comprised 63.9 percent of the total for the Non-Violent Crime category and 59.6 percent of the total Crime Index Offenses. I August recorded the highest number of Larceny-Thefts with 2,4i6 offenses. There were 1,330.1 Larceny-Thefts per 100,000 population, in West Virginia. Larceny-Thefts from automobiles accounted for 5,955 of the total offenses. I The total dollar value for Larceny-Theft offenses was $4,944,311, an average of $200 for each'offense; of the total offenses, 10,240 were $50 to $200 in value.

A record of total arrest activity I for criminal acts in both Part I and Part II crime classes is received from 284 county, state and municipal law enforcement agencies and is analyzed and arranged according to age, sex and race of persons arrested. Traffic arrests, except Driving While Intoxicated, are not reported. A total of 72,511 arrests for Part I and Part II criminal offenses were reported I during 1977. This was a decrease of 5,837 arrests over the 1976 figure of 78,348. Based on 1977 population estimates, there was a statewide arrest rate of 3,900.5 arrests per 100,000 persons in West Virginia. The arrest rate in 1976 was 4,302.5. I Since 1973, the number of persons arrested for Part I and Part II offenses has increased 3.0 percent while the arrest rate has decreased 1.3 percent. A person is counted on the month:y arrest report each time he or she is arrested or I summoned. It should be kept in mind that the volume of arrests may vary from time to time due to the differences in local arrest procedures and policies. It should be noted that a person may be arrested several times during a given month for the same or different I offenses. This occurs frequently for such crimes as drunkenness, disorderly conduct and similar offenses. A juvenile is counted as "arrested" when the circumstances are such that if he or she were an adult, an arrest would be counted or when police or other official action I beyond a mere interview, warning or admonishment is taken. These arrest figures do not indicate the number of individuals arrested or summoned since, as has been pointed out, one person may be arrested several times I during the month. However, arrest information is useful in measuring the extent oi the law enforcement activity in a given geographical area, as well as providing an index for measuring the involvement in criminal acts by the age, sex and race of the perpetrators. I Of all reported arrests for 1977, 12.6 percent were for Part I offenses (Murder, Manslaughter, Forcible Rape, Robbery, Felonious Assault, Breaking and Entering, Larceny - Theft and Motor Vehicle Theft). Analysis of Part I arrests indicates that Larceny, as in past years, comprised the highest percentage of all arrests for Part I crimes with 55.5 I percent. The "drunkenness" category continues to record the highest percent of arrests for Part II offenses. In 1977, this offense accounted for 54.4 percent of all reported arrests for Part II crimes. I Juveniles were involved in 11.6 percent of the arrests in 1977 compared to 1 ?3 in 1976. This marked a decrease of .7 percent of juvenile participation in crimina, s. Female arrests amounted to 10.9 percent of the total compared to 11.9 in 1976. Sincb. 13 I female participation has increased 5.7 percent in Part I offenses and .7 percent for total Part I and Part II offenses. J\rrests by race show that 94.4 percent of the persons arrested were white while 5.5 I were Negro. The remaining .1 percent came under other categories. VIOLENT CRIME I Arrests for crimes of violence (Murder, Rape, Robbery and Felonious Assault) on a statewide basis accounted for 15.6 percent of all arrests for Part I and 2.0 percent of the total arrests for all offenses. A further evaluation indicates that arrests for Felonious Assault were the most frequent, representing 55.5 percent of the total arrests for violent I crimes. I 46 I I I I PROPERTY CRIME I Property crime arrests (Breaking and Entering, Larceny - Theft and Motor Vehicle Theft) comprised 84.4 percent of all arrests for Part I offenses and 10.6 percent of all arrests. I The highest percentage of property crime arrests, 65.7 percent, occurred in the larceny category. NARCOTIC DRUG LAW ARRESTS I Information concerning arrests for narcotic drug law arrests is collected and analyzed according to specific drug categories. During 1977, a total of 1,936 arrests were I made for narcotic drug law violations, a decrease of 38 arrests from 1976. Evaluation of data reported for 1977 discloses that 55.4 percent of all persons arrested for narcotic drug law violations were under 21 years of age. Moreover, 22.1 percent of those arrested were under 18 years of age. Analysis of individual drug categories showed that the highest I percentage of arrests, 89.6 percent, involved marijuana. The lowest percentage of arrests occurred in tile opium and cocaine category, amounting to only 2.2 percent. GAMBLING ARRESTS I Arrests for gambling offenses during 1977 amounted to .5 percent of all reported arrests for Part I and Part II offenses. Of those arrested for gambling, 93.2 percent were males. Persons under 18 years of age made up .5% of all gambling arrests. The highest I percentage of arrests for gambling offenses, 13.4 percent, occurred in the 45-49 age category. A total of 380 gambling arrests were reported during 1977, a slight increase of 15 from the 1976 figure.

I I POLICE EMPLOYEE DATA 1917 I The Uniform Crime Reporting Program in West Virginia incorporates the collection of pertinent data relati ng to the police of the state. I nformation regarding police I employee strength, distributions, assaults against law enforcement officers and circumstances surrounding the killing of police officers are discussed in this section. This information is submitted by county, munici'pal and state law enforcement I agencies and compiled on an annual basis. Specific information concerning the number of law enforcement employees reflect the status as of October 31, 1977, and is limited to municipal, county and state law enforcement agencies currently reporting to the West Virginia UCR Program. I A total of 3,294 full-time law enforcment employees was reported by the agenCies, of which 2,601 were sworn personnel. This is a rate of 1.8 employees for each 1,000 I inhabitants of the state and a rate of 1.4 officers for each 1,000 inhabitants. The determination of police strength for any given area or municipality should be a subject for serious c·onsideration. Such consideration, however, should be basf:d on the I numerous factors which create the need for police ~~ervices. Some of these factors, discussed elsewhere in this publication relate to size, d(msity of population, geographic "; location, character, and proximity to metropolitan areas. The information in this section relates to reported police employee strength and Hhould not be interpreted as I recommended strength for any given municipality. Such determinations should Le made after objectively evaluating the need for police services based on the above factors. The personnel of each law enforcement agency differ as to the demands and I responsibilities placed before them. Many police officers are fully occupied with clerical tasks and are not free to perform active police duties. This current upward trend in police agencies to perform clerical duties is in line with the thinking of many police I administrators who recommend the use of civilians in this capacity, thus freeing the sworn personnel for actual police related service. There were 693 civiliarls included in the total fuJI-time law enforcement employees for West Virginia. I Municipal police departments reported a total of 1,669 employees, of which 1,390 were sworn officers. This is a rate of 1.7 sworn officers for each 1,000 inhabitants (urban .. population only). .j; I •.;t:. West Virginia's 55 county sheriffs departments reported a total of 885 employees, of which 697 were sworn officers. This is a rate of 0.7 sworn officers for each 1,000 inhabitants (rural population only). I In an attempt at comparisons of employment levels of individual sheriffs departments with (\ther agencies, consideration must be given to certain functions that are particular to a sheriff'S department. The function of county sheriffs departments vary I widely throughout the state. The operation of one sheriff's department may be limited exclusively to civil areas and the administration of the county jail, or they may be actively involved in criminal matters throl1ghtout the county. These functions are usually performed by sworn officers, thereby presenting a misleading picture of the actual I enforcernent strength of the department. The West Virginia State Police reported a total of 740 emploY8es, of Which 514 we're sworn oficers. This is a rate of 0.5 sworn officers for each 1,000 inhabitants (rural I population only). I 55 I ~- ~ I I LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS I KilLED AND ASSAULTED 1977 The killing of a police oNicer has an effect on society which reaches far beyond the overt act. Such occurrences const:tute an immediate threat to the well being of the community and a serious breach of the internal security of the country. Today, a young man who considers a career in law em'orcement must also consider the very strong possiblility of being killed or assaulted by a member of the very same society he is sworn to protect. This deplorable situation should be a subject of serious public concern, for in truth, an attack on a police officer is an attack on society. The violence directed against law I enforcement officers acting in the line of duty is clearly demonstrated by the following summary information: I Four law enforcement officers were killed in the line of duty during 1977. Two State Police Troopers were shot and killed in January while investigating a burglary in a rural area. A County Sheriffs Deputy was shot and I killed in September attempting to thwart a burglary suspect's escape. A State Police Trooper was shot and killed in October while booking a prisoner into a county I jail.

I I CRIME INDEX REPORT I The tabulations in this section indicate the volume and distribution of crime in West Virginia on the basis of a crime rate. The Uniform Crime Reporting Program utilizes seven crimE: classifications to I establish a rate to measure the trend and distribution of crime. The number of actual offenses of murder, forcible rape, robbery, 'Felonious assault, burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft are reflected in this report. I n\7) numoer OT acwal OTtenses of manslaughter I and assaults (not aggravated) are not index offenses, thus counts of these offenses are not considered in this report. I Each heading contained in this report is defined below. Population-Estimated population of the indicated reporting area. This information, representative of the year 1977, was provided through the assistance I of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the United States Bureau of Census. Total Offenses-This is the sum total of thl3 seven Index Offenses. I Total Cleared-The sum total of the seven Index cleared. Percent Cleared-The percentage of Index Offenses cleared by arrest or excep tional clearance. I The mathematical formula may be expressed as follows: I Percent Cleared '" Total Index Offenses Cleared x 100 I Total Actual Index Offenses Reported Crime Rate-This is sometimes referred to as a victim risk rate and is representative of the number of Index Offenses per 1,000 population. I Example - A crime rate of 10.00 would imply that 10.00 persons of each 1,000 population were the victim of an Index Offense.
