Dear Dr. Crime: How do I find statistics about national crime stuff? Active Citizen
Dear Citizen: Start with the following website and get back to me if you need more. I can be
reached at the website and email on this column.

Dear Dr. Crime: My nephew has been sent to a juvenile prison, I think they call them “training
schools”. He is small for his age and I worry he may be mistreated there. Is there much of a risk of
sexual assault in those places? Aunt B.
Dear Aunt B: The raw number of kids committed to state run juvenile prisons went down a lot
from 2006 to 2012, but the rate of sexual assaults went way up during that period. In 2012 the rate
in state juvenile prisons was 47 per 1,000 inmates, and in private juvenile prisons it was only 14
per 1,000 kids. If you nephew went to a state facility I hope you stay in close contact with him. It
has been my experience that everything possible should be done to keep the kids at home and not
housed in a “correctional facility”. Let me know if you need my help, see my contact information.
Dear Dr. Crime: I keep getting email advertisements about identity theft and I hear about it on TV
and in the newspaper as well. Is it all an effort sell me something I don’t need or is identify theft a
real problem? Strong Lady
Dear Lady: It is good you are concerned. The National Crime Victimization Survey, which is a
great piece of research and can be trusted, reported that 17.6 MILLION U.S. RESIDENTS
EXPERIENCED IDENTITY THEFT IN 2014. So take care with your personal information.
