Daily Crime Log

• There may be more than 1 incident number per entry.
• Incident numbers in the format “INC-YYYY-######” are system-generated and may not run sequentially since the log is sorted by reported date.
• Incident numbers following “INC-YYYY-######” are case numbers from the systems that are used to populate the Daily Crime Log, such as Maxient (ACC’s conduct management system), Flex (ACCDPD’s records management systems), and from other local law enforcement agencies’ records management systems.
• Occasionally, a crime is reported by a Campus Security Authority that is not entered into another database. In those cases, the secondary incident report # will be in the format CSA-yyyymmdd, with yyyymmdd being the date the incident was reported.

All crimes reported in a single incident are listed.

• Clery Act Crimes are entered based on Clery Act definitions.
• Non-Clery crimes are entered based on State offense definitions.
• Every attempt is made to use clear language.
• If a crime is reported and entered into the crime log but the resulting investigation shows that the initial description was inaccurate, the description is updated.

The Daily Crime Log is sorted by report date with the newest cases at the top.

The incident date and time are provided, if known. Sometimes this information is listed as unknown, or a range will be given.

The location of the crime is provided but in the case of interpersonal violence, the location is only broadly described to protect the identity of the victim(s). The three-letter code that prefaces each entry is defined below. Non-campus locations are prefaced by the code for the nearest campus.

FTA – Fire Training Academy

HLC – Highland Campus

HYS – Hays Campus

NRG – Northridge Campus

PIN – Pinnacle Campus

The disposition of the crime is listed and is updated for 60 days after the crime is entered on the DCL. The definition of each disposition is provided below:

Active

This disposition is used when a case is currently under investigation and investigative steps are ongoing. The case remains open, and further follow-up, interviews, evidence collection, or collaboration with other entities is expected. “Active” cases may later be reclassified as Cleared, Inactive, or Closed depending on investigative outcomes.

Assigned to EOC

This disposition is used when the case is referred to the ACC Office of Equal Opportunity Compliance for administrative adjudication. It is applicable when at least one involved individual is affiliated with ACC. This may also be used in cases involving violations of laws or ACC policies, where administrative action is appropriate. 

Assigned to HR

This disposition is used when the case is referred to the ACC Office of Human Resources for administrative adjudication. It is applicable when at least one involved individual is affiliated with ACC. This may also be used in cases involving violations of laws or ACC policies, where administrative action is appropriate.

Assigned to Student Conduct

This disposition is used when the case is referred to the ACC Office of Student Affairs for administrative adjudication. It is applicable when at least one involved individual is affiliated with ACC. This may also be used in cases involving violations of laws or ACC policies, where administrative action is appropriate. 

Cleared by Adult Arrest

This disposition is used when an adult offender is arrested and no further investigative follow-up is required. If additional follow-up is needed after the arrest, the case shall be assigned to the Investigations Section.

Cleared by Juvenile Arrest

This disposition is used when a juvenile offender (under 18 years of age) is arrested and no further follow-up is required. If additional investigative steps are needed, the case shall be referred to the Investigations Section.

Cleared by Other Means – Adult

This disposition applies when an adult offender has been identified and there is probable cause for arrest or charge, but the case cannot proceed due to circumstances beyond the department’s control. Examples include:

• Victim refusal to cooperate
• Prosecution declined
• Suspect is deceased
• Case transferred to another jurisdiction for prosecution

Cleared by Other Means – Juvenile

This disposition applies when a juvenile offender has been identified and there is probable cause for arrest or charge, but prosecution is not pursued due to circumstances beyond the department’s control. This includes cases with uncooperative victims or jurisdictional transfers.

Closed Case

This disposition is used when all investigative efforts have been completed and no further follow-up is necessary. Cases are closed only after the assigned officer or investigator has documented all actions taken and the supervisor has approved closure.

Inactive

This disposition is used for criminal cases where all investigative leads have been exhausted and no further steps can be taken at the time. Inactive cases may be reopened if new information or evidence becomes available.

Pending

This disposition is used for cases that are still in progress and require further action. It applies to both criminal and non-criminal matters and is often used as a temporary status while waiting on lab results, interviews, outside agency input, or other investigative steps. Missing persons cases and other ongoing investigations may also be classified as Pending.

Reported for Statistical Purposes

The case doesn’t fall under the purview of the Office of Equal Opportunity, Human Resources, Student Conduct or ACC District Police but must be recorded for statistical reporting purposes.

Reported by a LLEA

The incident was reported to a local law enforcement agency and was subsequently recorded for statistical purposes.

Unfounded

This disposition is used when a reported crime is investigated and determined to be false or baseless. A case may only be classified as Unfounded by a sworn law enforcement officer after a thorough review confirms that no crime occurred.
