ARRESTS 2014: LAW ENFORCEMENT RESPONSE TO CRIME IN THE SAN DIEGO REGION

INTRODUCTION

The Criminal Justice Research Division of the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) functions as the Clearinghouse for regional criminal justice information. On an annual basis, the Division prepares a report on local criminal justice agencies’ response to crime in the region, as measured by arrest statistics. Because arrest statistics include information regarding whether the suspect is an adult or juvenile, and includes a greater variety of crime types than are reported in regional crime reports (e.g., alcohol and other drug related offenses), this information provides an added dimension for understanding the nature of crime and an additional measure that can be used in justice system planning.

This CJ Bulletin includes regional arrest rates per 1,000 for both the adult and juvenile population, as well as numbers of arrests by offense type. In addition, 41 supplemental tables, which include statistics for individual jurisdictions, are presented. Some points to remember when interpreting these numbers include the following.

• Similar to how the FBI counts reported crimes, the offense or charge attributed to an arrest reflects only the most serious out of a number of violations included in the arrest.

• Arrests are documented by the location at which the arrest occurred and cannot be assumed to have any relationship to the location of the crime incident or the residence of the alleged offender.

• Arrest and crime rates and numbers should not be compared to one another. One reason is that the two events may occur in two entirely different periods of time, with an arrest made months or even years after the related crime was reported.

2014 ARRESTS BY THE NUMBERS

• 232: average number of adults arrested every day

in the San Diego region, down from 235 in 2013.

• 11 to 1: the average number of adults arrested

per day compared to the number of juveniles.

• 29: the average number of adults arrested each

day for misdemeanor driving under the influence

– the most common reason an adult in San Diego

County is arrested. However, these arrests have

dropped considerably over the past five years,

down from 46 per day in 2010.

OTHER 2014 ARREST TRENDS AND STATISTICS

Over the past year, the adult and juvenile arrest rates

declined across the region, by 3 and 8 percent,

respectively. This greater decline in juvenile arrests is

consistent with trends in recent years and has been

seen in other California counties as well. As might be

expected, the declines in felony arrest rates for both

adults and juveniles (-5% and -13%, respectively)

were greater than the one-year declines for

misdemeanors (-2% and -7%, respectively), which

could possibly reflect the implementation of

Proposition 47 in November 2014, to some degree.

For adults, who represented 92 percent of all arrests,

there were one year decreases in the number of

weapons offenses (-13%), alcohol/drug violations

(-4%), and property offenses (-3%), but increases for

arrests related to a violent offense (2%) and other

offenses (2%). For property offenses, there was a

12 percent drop in felony-level arrests and a 9 percent

increase at the misdemeanor level. For alcohol/drug

offenses, the one-year decreases were 10 percent for

felonies and 2 percent for misdemeanors. These

changes may also reflect Proposition 47

implementation, but without more data and statistics,

it is too early to say definitively.

ARREST RATES

Trends

In 2014, there were 34.4 adults arrested per 1,000 population. As Figure 1 shows, this rate represented a slight decrease (-3%) from 2013, and was 16 percent lower than it was ten years earlier (when it was 44.5). Across the jurisdictions, the adult arrest rate varied from 15.9 to 55.2 in 2014, with one-year decreases in 11 of the jurisdictions and increases in the other 8 (Table 6).

Up until 2012, the arrest rate was traditionally higher for juveniles than adults, but this reversed in 2012, with the pattern continuing in 2013 and 2014. As Figure 1 shows, the 2014 juvenile arrest rate of 23.7 represented a decrease of 8 percent from 2013 and was 53 percent lower than it was in 2010. Across the jurisdictions, the juvenile arrest rate varied from 4.6 to 37.4 in 2014, with 12 of the agencies reporting one-year decreases, 4 agencies one-year increases, and for 3, the number of arrests was too small to compare (Table 9).

Figure 1 ARREST RATE DOWN FOR BOTH ADULTS AND

JUVENILES IN 2014

Felonies and Misdemeanors

When examining arrest rates for adults by the severity of the highest charge, felonies were down five percent in 2014 (from 2013), and misdemeanors were down two percent (Tables 7 and 8). Both rates also dropped for juveniles, but to an even greater degree (-13% for felonies and -7% for misdemeanors) (Tables 10 and 11).

What Is Proposition 47 and How Could Its Implementation Possibly Affect the Arrest

Rates and Numbers Reported Here? On November 5, 2014, California voters passed

Proposition 47, which basically reduced simple possession

of drugs and many theft crimes to misdemeanors. As such,

the arrest data reported here reflects approximately ten

months of data pre-Proposition 47 and two months

following its implementation. While it is impossible to say

definitively whether, and to what degree, any of these one-

year changes reflect the implementation of Proposition 47,

the patterns reported here appear to be consistent with it;

with a greater decrease in felonies than misdemeanors,

and, within the property and alcohol/drug categories,

greatly decreased arrests at the felony-level and increases

at the misdemeanor level. SANDAG will continue to

monitor these and other statistics as we continue to move

forward to better understand how system-wide changes,

such as Proposition 47, have affected public safety,

including how our local law enforcement agencies are

working together to uphold it.

Arrestee Race

Arrest rates also varied by race/ethnicity for both adults and juveniles, with individuals of “other” races/ethnicities having the lowest rate (14.8), while Blacks had the highest rate (116.0). Over the past year, the arrest rate decreased for all ethnic groups, including Whites (-3%), Hispanics (-3%), those of “other” race/ethnicities (-5%), and Blacks (-6%) (Table 2).1

1 In prior years, arrestee age also has been reported. However,

2014 data were not provided by the State with this categorization; therefore, analyses could not be prepared for this bulletin.

SAN DIEGO COMPARED TO OTHER CALIFORNIA COUNTIES

In 2014, San Diego County had an adult arrest rate (34.4/1,000) that was lower than the State’s (38.0), but a juvenile arrest rate that was higher (23.7 versus 21.2). In addition, as Figure 2 shows, San Diego County had the highest juvenile and third highest adult arrest rates, following San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties. From 2013 to 2014, two of the other four large California counties had decreases in their adult arrest rates (-2% in Orange and -4% in Los Angeles) and the other two had increases (1% in San Bernardino and 3% in Riverside). For juveniles, Orange and Los Angeles again reported decreases (-4% and -12%, respectively), as did Riverside (-7%), but San Bernardino had another increase (2%) (Table 5).

NUMBER OF ADULT AND JUVENILE ARRESTS

Even though juveniles have historically had a higher arrest rate per 1,000 population compared to adults, it is important to note that many more adults are actually arrested. In 2014, there were 84,582 adult arrests (29,345 at the felony level and 55,237 at the misdemeanor level), and 7,779 juvenile arrests (2,061 felonies, 4,290 misdemeanors, and 1,428 status offenses) (Figure 3 and Tables 13-15, and 26-28). On average, there were around 232 adult and 21 juvenile arrests every day in 2014 in the San Diego region by local law enforcement agencies (not shown).

As Figure 4 shows, while 8 percent of all individuals arrested in 2014 were juveniles, there was variation by crime type; with juveniles representing a greater proportion of arrests for weapons (18%) and property (13%) offenses, and a smaller proportion of arrests for alcohol- and other drug-related offenses (3%).

Figure 4 JUVENILES REPRESENT HIGHER PROPORTION OF

ARRESTS FOR WEAPONS AND PROPERTY OFFENSES


ARRESTS BY OFFENSE TYPE

What types of crimes are adults and juveniles arrested for? As Figure 5 shows, more than two in five (43%) adult arrests were for an alcohol/drug offense, and one in four (27%) for some other type of crime. In comparison, the distribution across crime type varied more for juveniles, with the most common being other offenses (24%) and least likely weapons offenses (3%).

There was also variation across the arrest categories in terms of what percent represented offenses at the felony versus misdemeanor level. As Figure 6 shows, while four-fifths or more of juvenile and adult arrests for weapons offenses were at the felony level (89% and 82%, respectively), a much smaller percent were felonies in the alcohol/drug (16% and 25%) and “other” (16% and 27%) offense categories.

VARIES BY OFFENSE TYPE


Violent Offenses

The violent offense arrest category includes four felony-level offenses: homicide, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault; and misdemeanor-level manslaughter/assault and battery. There were 14,119 adult and 1,447 juvenile arrests for violent offenses in 2014 (Figure 7). Arrests for a violent offense increased slightly over the past year for both adults (2%) (Table 20), and juveniles (2%) (Table 33).

Figure 7 ARRESTS FOR VIOLENT OFFENSES SLIGHTLY UP

FOR ADULTS AND JUVENILES IN 2014


For adults, there were increases in three of the four felony-level crimes, ranging from 6 percent for aggravated assault to 18 percent for rape; homicide was up 15 percent, but robbery was down 13 percent. At the misdemeanor level, there was an increase of less than 1 percent for the number of manslaughter/assault and battery (Table 21). For juveniles, there were increases in the number of robberies and aggravated assaults at the felony-level (9% and 3%, respectively), but a slight drop (<-1%) for misdemeanor manslaughter/assault and battery. Numbers were too small to compare for homicide and rape (Table 34).

Property Offenses

Property offenses include felony-level burglary, larceny, motor vehicle theft, and misdemeanor-level petty theft/burglary. In 2014, there were 10,029 adults arrested for a property offense, which represented a 3 percent decrease from 2013 (Figure 8 and Table 20). For juveniles, the number of arrests for a property crime dropped to 1,495, a one-year decrease of 19 percent from 2013 (Table 33).

Figure 8

ARRESTS FOR PROPERTY OFFENSES DOWN FOR ADULTS AND JUVENILES IN 2014


Across the felony property categories, for adults, there was a 12 percent drop overall, which was driven by 14 percent drops each in felony-level burglary and larceny, but offset slightly by a 2 percent increase in arrests for motor vehicle thefts. At the same time, there was a 9 percent increase in misdemeanor-level property crime arrests (Table 22). For juveniles, there were double-digit decreases across each of the three felony-level categories and the misdemeanor-level petty theft/burglary, ranging from -11 percent to -37 percent (Table 35).

Alcohol- and Other Drug-Related Offenses

In 2014, there were 36,621 adult and 1,277 juvenile arrests for alcohol- and other drug-related offenses (Figure 9). For adults, this represented a decrease of 4 percent from 2013, but for juveniles, it was a slight increase of 1 percent (Tables 20 and 33).

Figure 9 ADULT ARRESTS FOR ALCOHOL- AND OTHER

DRUG-RELATED OFFENSES DOWN, JUVENILES UP SLIGHTLY


Within the alcohol- and drug-related offense category are five felony and five misdemeanor categories. For adults, there were one-year declines for all five of the felony categories, ranging from -5 percent for other drug offenses (which includes illegal use of prescription drugs), to -17 percent for narcotics (which includes heroin and cocaine/crack); the overall decrease for felony-level crimes was -10 percent. At the misdemeanor level, three crimes had one year increases, including other drug offenses (10%), liquor laws (35%), and marijuana (86%), while the other two had decreases ranging from -4 percent (drunk in public) to -10 percent (driving under the influence) (Table 23). For juveniles, there were decreases in four of the eight alcohol- and drug-related charges (with enough numbers for comparison), with increases for the other four. Increases ranged from 5 percent for

misdemeanor level marijuana offenses, to 26 percent for liquor laws and decreases ranged from -2 percent for misdemeanor drunk in public, to -27 percent for felony-level marijuana (Table 36).

Weapons Offenses

There were 1,183 adult arrests and 259 juvenile arrests for weapons violations in 2014 (Figure 10), representing a 13 percent decrease for both adults and juveniles over the past year (Tables 20 and 33).

Figure 10 ARRESTS FOR WEAPONS OFFENSES DOWN FOR

ADULTS AND JUVENILES IN 2014


For adults, arrests for felony-level weapon offenses were down 13 percent and misdemeanors were down 16 percent (Table 24). For juveniles, there was a decrease of 13 percent for felony-level offenses (but numbers were too small for comparison at the misdemeanor level) (Table 37).

Other Offenses

There were 22,630 adult arrests and 1,873 juvenile arrests for “other” offenses in 2014 (Figure 11). At the felony level, “other” charges include sex-related offenses, forgery, and arson, as well as other felonies (such as kidnapping). At the misdemeanor level, offense types include other theft-related charges, sex-related and prostitution, disturbing the peace,

vandalism/graffiti, hit-and-run, selected traffic offenses, violations of city/county ordinances, failure to appear in court offenses, and other charges such as contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Over the past year, there was a 2 percent increase in other offense arrests for adults, but a 19 percent decrease for juveniles (Tables 20 and 33).

Figure 11 NUMBER OF ARRESTS FOR OTHER OFFENSES UP

FOR ADULTS, DOWN FOR JUVENILES


For adults, there were one-year decreases in 8 of the 14 felony and misdemeanor “other” crime categories, with the largest drop for misdemeanor-level prostitution (-39%), and the largest increase for misdemeanor-level other theft/checks/access cards (88%) (Table 25). For juveniles, there were decreases in all five of the categories with enough numbers for comparisons (Table 38).

Status Offenses

As Figure 12 shows, there were 1,428 status offense arrests in 2014, which represented a 1 percent decrease from 20132 (Table 39).

Figure 12 NUMBER OF STATUS OFFENSE ARRESTS

DECREASED AGAIN IN 2014


2 In 2013 and 2014, the state reported no runaway arrests for any

agency in San Diego County, but further investigation revealed that this is not consistent with follow-up data inquiries to individual agencies. As such, it is important to note that the number of status offense arrests in 2013 and 2014 may be somewhat higher than what is reported here and in other arrest statistics from the State.

SUMMARY

The current CJ Bulletin describes what types of arrests were made in the San Diego region in 2014 by local law enforcement agencies of both adults and juveniles. Compared to 2013, adult arrests were down 3 percent overall and juvenile arrests were down 8 percent. For adults, the greatest one-year declines were seen for weapons-related offenses (-13%), felony-level property offenses (-12%), and felony-level alcohol/drug offenses (-10%). While it is too early to say definitively, these decreases could be related in part to the implementation of Proposition 47 in the last quarter of 2014, which reduced numerous property- and drug-related offenses from felonies to misdemeanors. In 2014, the most common reason an adult was arrested remained misdemeanor driving under the influence and the most common reason for juveniles was a curfew violation.

Total 3,535 1,438 1,428 -60% -1%

NOTES: Variations in emphasis or focus on individual status offenses by law enforcement and prosecution agencies impact the number

of arrests/juvenile contacts. "Other" status offenses include incorrigible behavior (such as failure to comply with parental authority),

failure to obey orders of the Juvenile Court (such as community service and fines), and running away from court-ordered placement. In

2013 and 2014, the State of California reported no runaway arrests for any agency in San Diego County. However, further investigation

revealed that this is not consistent with follow-up inquiries to individual agencies. As such, it is important to note that the number of

status offense arrests in 2013 and 2014 may be somewhat higher than what is reported here and in other arrest statistics from the State

of California.
