Daily Crime Log
Abilene Campus | FY 2017 - 2018
Federal law requires that we make, keep and maintain a daily log, written in a form
that can be easily understood, recording all crimes reported to our department. The
log should include the nature, date, time and general location of each crime and the
disposition of the complaint, if known. This law requires that this initial information
be open for public inspection within two business days of the report of the crime
unless the release of the information would jeopardize an ongoing investigation, cause
the suspect to flee or result in the destruction of evidence.
The crime logs are captured from 6:00 am to 6:00 am the following day. For example,
crime entry for 2:00am on October 5, 2000 would appear on the daily log for the previous
day even though it happened after midnight.
