Definition

Juvenile Violent Crime Arrests count arrests of youth for index offenses (Murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, and motorvehicle theft).

Note: As of 2021, OSBI no longer collects juvenile justice data for index crimes. Data will not be updated past 2020.

Data Source

Arrest data provided by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI).

Notes

Arrest figures include all arrests for violent crimes during a given year, including repeated arrests of the same individual for different offenses. Several Oklahoma counties reported no juvenile violent crime arrests during the years included.  Changes in the number of arrests may reflect changes in juvenile crime, police activity and/or public policy.
