This State mandated reporting requirement through the Dept. of Justice (DOJ) dictates the methodology and criteria which Law Enforcement Agencies report crime incidents to State and Federal governing bodies.The key change in this requirement under NIBRS is the reporting of multiple crimes that may occur at a single incident unlike previous UCR reporting standards that only captured the most significant crime.
