The NIBRS was designed to provide detail and context around crime stats. Under the previous system, only the most serious crime related to an incident would be logged. If an incident involved a homicide as well as aggravated assault and theft, only a homicide would be recorded in criminal statistics.
It is used by law enforcement at all levels, from local to federal. Due to logistical and technological challenges, not every enforcement authority has signed up for NIBRS and stats might not reflect a complete picture of crimes which occurred.
