Executive SummaryHate Crime in California

2019Hate Crime in California 2019 presents statistics on hate crimes1 reported by California law enforcement agencies that occurred during 2019 with prior years included for context. These statistics include the number of hate crime events2, hate crime offenses3, victims of hate crimes, and suspects of hate crimes. This report also provides statistics reported by district and elected city attorneys on the number of hate crime cases referred to prosecutors, the number of cases filed in court, and the disposition of those cases. These data are provided to assist in policy development and to inform the public on the nature and frequency of the reported hate crimes in California. The total number of hate crime events, offenses, and suspects decreased while the total number of victims increased in 2019. The following statements highlight the major trends in Hate Crime in California for 2019.

Local law enforcement agencies are required to report hate crimes to the Department of Justice (DOJ) in compliance with California Penal Code Section 13023. California Penal Code Section 422.55 defines a hate crime as “a criminal act committed, in whole or in part, because of one or more of the following actual or perceived characteristics of the victim: (1) disability, (2) gender, (3) nationality, (4) race or ethnicity, (5) religion, (6) sexual orientation, (7) association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics.”

Crime DataThe number of hate crime events have fluctuated over the last decade. In the last 10 years, hate crime events have decreased by 8.3 percent with 1107 reported in 2010 and 1015 reported in 2019 (Table 11). The lowest year for reported hate crime events was 2014 with 758 events (Table 11).

Hate crime events decreased 4.8 percent from 1,066 in 2018 to 1,015 in 2019 (Table 11).

The number of victims of reported hate crimes increased 0.8 percent from 1,237 in 2018 to 1,247 in 2019 (Table 15).

The number of suspects of reported hate crimes decreased 11.5 percent from 1,093 in 2018 to 967 in 2019 (Table 15).

1 This report contains information related to hate crimes as defined in PC section 422.55. This report does not contain reports of hate incidents that do not rise to the level of

a hate crime2 The term event is defined as an occurrence where a hate crime is involved. (In this report, the information about the event is a crime report or source document that meets

the criteria for a hate crime.) There may be one or more suspects involved, one or more victims targeted, and one or more offenses involved for each event.

3 The term offense is defined as criminal acts that are recorded as follows: murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, arson,

simple assault, intimidation, and destruction/vandalism as defined in the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) and the national Hate Crimes Statistics Report.

Understanding the DataData Characteristics and Known Limitations

Crime DataThe following information and limitations should be considered when using hate crime data:

1) A hate crime event contains the occurrence of one or more criminal offenses, committed against one or more victims, by one or more suspects or perpetrators. Victims can have more than one offense committed against them.

2) Hate crimes reported by law enforcement agencies are counted in a specific way. In each hate crime event, the DOJ counts the total number of victims, the total number of suspects, and the total number of criminal offenses in one event. These totals are then classified and counted by type of bias motivation (e.g., anti-black or African American, anti-Hispanic or Latino, anti-Jewish, anti-gay, etc.), type of crime (e.g., murder, aggravated assault, burglary, destruction/vandalism, etc.), the location where the crime took place (e.g., residence, street, synagogue, school, etc.), and the type of victim (e.g., individual, property, etc.).

3) The DOJ requested that each law enforcement agency establish procedures incorporating a two-tier review (decision-making) process. The first level is done by the initial officer who responds to the suspected hate crime incident. At the second level, each report is reviewed by at least one other officer to confirm that the event was, in fact, a hate crime.

4) Caution should be used when making jurisdictional comparisons. The following factors should be considered: cultural diversity and population density; size of law enforcement agencies; and the training received in the identification of hate crimes by law enforcement officers in each jurisdiction.

5) The following factors may influence the volume of hate crimes reported to the DOJ:

• Cultural practices of individuals and their likeliness to report hate crimes to law enforcement agencies.

• Strength and investigative emphasis of law enforcement agencies.

• Policies of law enforcement agencies.

• Community policing policies.

6) In 2009, the DOJ began collecting information on hate crimes involving multiple-bias motivations. Law enforcement agencies were able to report up to five bias motivations for each hate-related event, as long as there was a unique offense for each bias motivation.

In 2011, the DOJ expanded the acceptable location codes for the California hate crime data collection system to reflect modifications implemented at the national level.

In 2013, the DOJ expanded the gender bias category for the California hate crime data collection system to include crimes motivated by gender non-conformity in order to reflect modifications implemented at the national level.

In 2014, the DOJ expanded the religion bias for the California hate crime data collection system to include Sikh in order to reflect modifications implemented at the national level.

In 2015, the DOJ expanded the race and ethnicity bias category for the California hate crime data collection system to include Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander in order to reflect modifications implemented at the national level.

In 2019, Orange County Sheriff disclosed that they unintentionally under-reported four 2018 hate crimes during the reporting cycle.

7) There is a significant difference between how crimes against an individual is counted versus how a crime against an entity is counted that stems from the DOJ’s Criminal Justice Statistics Center’s use of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI’s) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program standards. A property crime against an entity (a business, religious organization, government institution, etc.) can only be counted as one victim, whereas a crime committed against individuals can have more than one victim

8) In 2013, the FBI’s UCR program revised the definition of “forcible rape” (the carnal knowledge of a female forcibly and against her will) to “rape,” which is now defined as “penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim.” The California DOJ implemented this definition change in January 2014.

County District Attorney andElected City Attorney Prosecutorial Data

The following information and limitations should be considered when interpreting hate crime cases:

1) In order to show the criminal justice system’s response to hate crimes, in 1995 the Attorney General asked all district attorneys and elected city attorneys to submit summary data of complaints filed and convictions secured.

2) The 2019 District Attorney’s and Elected City Attorney’s Report File of Hate Crime Cases contains summary data based on cases referred to each district attorney or elected city attorney, and filings and convictions that occurred from January 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019.

3) When viewing prosecutorial data, it is not possible to relate the number of hate crimes reported by law enforcement agencies to the number of hate crimes prosecuted by district attorneys and city attorneys. First, crimes often occur in different reporting years than their subsequent prosecutions. Second, the number of crimes reported by law enforcement is much higher than those calling for prosecutorial action since the latter requires an arrested defendant who can be prosecuted in a court of law.

4) The annual prosecutorial report collects data on the total number of hate crime cases filed and the total number of hate crime convictions. There is no direct relationship between “complaints filed” and “convictions” since a case may be filed in one year and the outcome (trial or pleading) may occur in another.

5) All prosecutorial data include hate crimes committed by both juvenile and adult defendants.

6) Glenn County District Attorney did not report data for 2014.

Ethnic Bias – A preformed negative opinion or attitude toward a group of persons of the same race or national origin who share common or similar traits in language, custom, and tradition.

Event – An occurrence where a hate crime is involved. (In this report, the information about the event is a crime report or source document that meets the criteria for a hate crime.)

Heterosexual – Of or relating to persons who experience sexual attraction toward and responsiveness to members of the opposite sex; (noun) a heterosexual person.

Homosexual – Of or relating to persons who experience sexual attraction toward and responsiveness to members of their own sex; (noun) a homosexual person.

Lesbian – Of or relating to females who experience sexual attraction toward and responsiveness to other females; (noun) a homosexual female.

Note: Some lesbian women prefer to be described as gay women. For FBI UCR Program purposes, however, if reporting an anti-gay bias, the victim should be a male.
