3rdnlng Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Bureau of justice statistics - Data from the Arrest-Related Deaths (ARD) component of the Deaths in Custody Reporting Program (DCRP) represent a national accounting of persons who have died during the process of arrest from 2003 through 2009. Highlights: A total of 4,813 deaths were reported to the Arrest-Related Deaths program from January 2003 through December 2009. Of reported arrest-related deaths, 61% (2,931) were classified as homicides by law enforcement personnel, 11% (541) were suicides, 11% (525) were due to intoxication, 6% (272) were accidental injuries, and 5% (244) were attributed to natural causes. State and local law enforcement agencies employing 100 or more full-time sworn personnel accounted for 75% of the 4,813 arrest-related deaths reported during 2003-2009. Among reported arrest-related deaths, 42% of persons were white, 32% were black, and 20% were Hispanic. Do you think that maybe you should provide a link or is this another case of you just wanting to get away with cherry picking data? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone starts quoting or does a copy/paste on specific data they need to provide a link. Without doing so they are stealing someone else's work. Lyrbob needs to provide a link---I don't need to search for his source. Now, don't you feel foolish for spouting off in such a childish way when in fact you were wrong?

Based on your numbers an average of 370 people are killed via homicide (the only number that is relative to this topic). Well I looked it up and an average of 370 people a year are struck by lightening. Interesting. http://askville.amazon.com/people-struck-lightning-yearly/AnswerViewer.do?requestId=12011934 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So one has a slightly better chance of being a victim of homicide while in policy custody than being struck by lightening. My apologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
