The NIBRS aims to provide detailed and contextual crime statistics. Previously, reporting systems would record only the most serious offense per incident. For example, if a case involved homicide, aggravated assault, and theft, only homicide would be counted in official crime statistics.
This system supports law enforcement agencies at the local, state, and federal levels.
