Hate Crime Statistics (victims): FBI comprehensive report

Hate Crime Statistics (victims): FBI comprehensive report

FBI published a comprehensive report on Hate Crime Victims. The whole society must be United to defeat all type of Hate Crime, as if we ignore wrong doing to others, others will ignore wrong doing agains us, once it come. And it will, if we keep supporting Hate Crime around us, by neglecting it.
The report, as originally published:

In the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, the victim of a hate crime may be an individual, a business/financial institution, a government entity, a religious organization, or society/public as a whole. In 2019, the nation’s law enforcement agencies reported that there were 8,812 victims of hate crimes. Of these victims, 260 were victimized in separate multiple-bias incidents.

The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, 18 U.S.C. §249, required the FBI to collect data concerning hate crimes committed by or directed against juveniles. Beginning in 2013, law enforcement began reporting the number of victims who are 18 years of age or older, the number of victims under the age of 18, and the number of individual victims. Of the 6,628 individuals for which victim age data were reported in 2019, 5,909 hate crime victims were adults, and 719 hate crime victims were juveniles.


In 2013, the national UCR Program began collecting revised race and ethnicity data in accordance with a directive from the U.S. Government’s Office of Management and Budget. The race categories were expanded from four (White, Black, American Indian or Alaska Native, and Asian or Other Pacific Islander) to five (White, Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander). The ethnicity categories changed from Hispanic and Non-Hispanic to Hispanic or Latino and Not Hispanic or Latino. (See the Methodology for more information about this program change as well as others.)


By bias motivation (Based on Table 1.)

An analysis of data for victims of single-bias hate crime incidents showed that:

  • 57.6 percent of the victims were targeted because of the offenders’ bias against race/ethnicity/ancestry.
