8 ***Note: Beginning in 2013, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has expanded the definition of Rape. Previously the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) definition of forcible rape included only female victims vaginally penetrated by a male. The 2013 expanded definition now includes “penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim”. In practice, the new definition now includes both female and male victims, all vaginal and anal sex acts, and any oral sex act that involves another person’s sexual organs. Consistent with New York State Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) guidance, for comparison purposes, offenses falling under the original rape category are being reported separately from offenses in the new definition. The data above includes only offenses occurring under the original rape definition.
