Meh.  We use the app for our city.  It falls under my responsibility.  It connects to the agency's CAD in most cases.  Problem is, many times it doesn't update the icon once the the call is cleared.  IE:  Call comes in for a suspicious call for noises in the house; dispatcher inputs the call as a Burglary In Progress.  Once there. officers find out that the own'ers dag had gas and it's NRN (No Report Needed) the the CrimeReports app doesn't update the status
 



ETA:  Doesn't work everywhere, as many don't subscribe and the company doesn't have access to their CAD

I guess Amarillo doesn't subscribe to reports, but it still shows registered sex offender locations. Although most of the registered offenders are right where I'd expect them to be.

0 incidents in my area. Not very accurate.



I can think of two murders, two arson, two attempted murders, and a burglary in the last 5 years.

Sex offender data is drawn from state/federal sources...crime data from the jurisdiction's CAD

yep - I see it now...


sex offenders, it's a federal thing that's why there's data everywhere - but for things like burg/robbery/assault/murder etc the department has to be tied to the system

Nothing here but sex offenders. Not that that's good, but...

I know a few of them.  They mostly seem to be "23 year old with 17 year old girlfriend" types of deals, and shouldn't be included on the list.

There are a few that deserve to be on it, I guess.  Truthfully, they deserve far worse than that.

Probably incomplete data on that map.

I did find this for my county.  Latest data is from 2005.

2005
Population 12,590
Murder  0
Rape  2
Robbery  1
Aggravated Assault  14
Total Violent Crime  17

Pretty weird considering the high rate of firearms ownership here.  You'd think we'd all be killing one another.
