Which item is an FBI program that compiles crime data reported by police agencies?

• A. Uniform Crime Reports
• B. Terry stop
• C. Third degree
• D. Stop and frisk

Answer: (A)

Uniform Crime Reports is the FBI data collection effort that gathers offenses known to police from departments nationwide and turns them into national crime statistics. It provides annual counts and patterns of crimes, enabling comparison across jurisdictions and tracking long-term trends. The other terms refer to policing practices or legal concepts rather than a data compilation program: a Terry stop describes a brief detention based on reasonable suspicion, a third degree is a criminal charge level in some jurisdictions, and stop and frisk denotes a policing practice. So the FBI program that compiles crime data reported by police agencies is Uniform Crime Reports.
