Scope Public Safety Article Title 2-307 tasks all law enforcement agencies within the state of Maryland and the Office of the State Fire Marshal to provide the Maryland Department of State Police (MDSP) with information relating to incidents seemingly directed against an individual or group because of race/ethnicity/ ancestry (R/E/A), religion, sexual orientation, disability, gender, gender identity, or homeless status. In compliance with that requirement, MDSP, in partnership with the Maryland Coordination and Analysis Center (MCAC), have produced this 2019 Hate Bias Report. It contains an overview of trends in hate bias related incidents within the state of Maryland and gives statistical representation of incidents and their associated victims, offenders, injuries, weapons, and property damage during calendar year 2019. This report also includes a historical analysis of total incident data compared with total verified data from the previous 10 years. The information contained is limited to hate or bias incidents that have been reported to a Maryland police agency. II. Methodology The State of Maryland meets the National Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) requirements via the Maryland Statewide Uniform Crime Reporting Program. This program provides procedures and the collection mechanism for reported hate bias incidents. The Maryland Supplementary Hate Bias Incident Report Form, also known as Form 11, is submitted by Maryland police agencies monthly to MDSP for data compilation. This data is analyzed and findings are released to the public in this publication annually. While the FBI’s UCR Program compiles hate crime data regarding criminal offenses motivated by the offender’s bias, Maryland Public Safety Article 2-307 requires the collection of data on hate crimes as well as hate bias incidents which did not result in a crime. For this reason, the FBI’s statistics on hate crimes may differ from Maryland’s hate bias statistics. Incident based data includes incidents reported by the victim(s) or the investigating law enforcement officer(s) when perceived to be motivated by hate or bias. Such incidents may or may not be considered criminal activity. Crime based data pertains to bias related crimes, which are recorded as hate or bias incidents, but more specifically, involve offenses that can result in arrests. Hate crime definitions often encompass not only violence against individuals or groups, but also crimes against property, such as arson or vandalism, particularly those directed against community centers or houses of worship. In order to provide a more comprehensive overview of hate bias related activity in Maryland, crimebased and incident based data have been combined in this report. When an incident is reported, the following criteria, among many others, can be used to determine if the incident is bias related:  A review of the totality of the circumstances and motives  A display or expression of any bias related symbols, words, or acts  The victim’s perception and/or statements of any suspect(s) or witness(es)  A prior history of similar incidents in the same geographic area or against the same victim(s)  The demographics of the area of occurrence Identifying the offender’s subjective motivation can make it difficult to distinguish a hate bias related incident from any other. An incident can be verified through an investigation of the accused person or eyewitness reports of a crime. In other cases the determination whether to charge a hate bias incident is at the discretion of law enforcement and prosecutors. The presence of any of the following criteria may be indicators that an incident is hate bias motivated and additional investigation is necessary:  Similar incidents in or around the same location or neighborhood indicating a possible pattern. UNCLASSIFIED 3 UNCLASSIFIED  Perceptions of the victim(s) and witness(es) about the incident – This is one of the single most important factors to consider. However, victims may not readily recognize that the incident was motivated by bias.  Perpetrator’s comments, gestures, or written statements reflect bias including graffiti, drawings, and symbols used.  Differences between perpetrator and victim, whether actual or perceived by the perpetrator – Victims and perpetrators may appear to be from the same race, ethnicity, or religion but it is the perpetrator’s perception of difference that motivates the behavior constituting an incident.  Victim was engaged in activities promoting his or her community or group.  Incident coincided with a holiday or date of particular significance to a group.  Localized activities of organized hate group or the absence of any other motive(s) such as economic gain. Where some incidents do not clearly fit a specific definition, they are handled as bias related and verified during the investigation. Depending on the outcome of the follow-up investigation, hate bias incidents are classified as verified, inconclusive, or unfounded.  Verified Incident – An incident committed against a person or property where the investigation leads a reasonable and prudent person to conclude that the offender’s actions were motivated, in whole or in part, by their bias against a person’s race/ethnicity/ ancestry, religion, sexual orientation, disability, gender, gender identity, or homeless status.  Inconclusive Incident – An incident where the evidence is conflicting, incomplete, or otherwise insufficient to classify as verified.  Unfounded Incident – An incident in which the evidence or investigation definitively indicates that it was not motivated by bias against a person’s race/ ethnicity/ancestry, religion, sexual orientation, disability, gender, gender identity, or homeless status, or that the incident did not occur. Data Declaration The data behind this report comes from the Maryland Supplementary Hate Bias Incident Report, Form 11, which is mandated for all Maryland law enforcement agencies to complete when a hate bias incident is encountered. The form collects information on date, time, incident type, bias motivation, clearance, victim and offender demographics, location, weapons used, injuries, value of property damage, and a written summary of the incident, amongst other things. In 2012, Homeless, as a category, was included as a hate bias motivation. In 2015, Gender and Gender Identity were also added. These additions have not made a significant impact on overall reporting as R/E/A, Religion and Sexual Orientation largely account for bias motivations from the previous 10 years. Other revisions to categories have included:  Victim and offender race category was revised to White, Black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, multiple races or unknown.  The revised ethnicity categories are Hispanic or Latino, Not Hispanic or Latino, multiple ethnicities or unknown.  The following religious bias types were added: antiBuddhist, anti-Eastern Orthodox (Greek, Russian, etc.), anti-Hindu, anti-Jehovah’s Witness, antiMormon, anti-Other Christian, and anti-Sikh.  Bias Motivation Code categories were revised to include: Race/Ethnicity/Ancestry, Religion, Sexual Orientation, Disability, Gender, and Gender Identity. The previous Bias Motivation Code, Ethnicity (alone), was eliminated. Many other codes, including those for Location and Property Damage Type were updated as well. The information reported is based on individual agency policy and procedures, as well as the individual officer’s level of training and expertise. The reports are collected by the Maryland Department of State Police Central Record Division as mandated by law and are then provided to the MCAC. If a hate bias incident occurs and is not reported to law enforcement, an Incident Report is not filled out and is not submitted. All incidents included in this analysis are counted as to what they are marked upon their most current receipt. This analysis is current as of 1 July 2020. Incident reports received after 1 July 2020 will be reflected in the 2020 report. No specific addresses or locations are collected other than the zip code of where the incident took place. No names or personal identifiable information are reported to maintain confidentiality. UNCLASSIFIED 4 UNCLASSIFIED III. Executive Summary There were a total of 385 hate bias incidents reported by Maryland law enforcement agencies during the 2019 reporting period. Key Findings The following statistics account for all incident types; verified, inconclusive and unfounded.  Maryland experienced an average of 386 hate bias incidents each year from 2017 - 2019. There were 10 more incidents reported in 2019 compared to 2018.  In 2019, R/E/A, as a category, was the most common motivation for all hate bias incidents accounting for 69% of all incidents reported.  Of the 330 victims, black, as a race subcategory, made up 53.6% of all victims followed by white as a subcategory, which made up 32.4%.  Black males as victims of hate or bias accounted for 27.6% followed by black females at 26.0% and white males at 18.8%.  White offenders account for 47.0% of known subjects while black offenders account for 10.6%. Offender race and gender are not identified in 39.4% of all reports.  Juveniles made up 17.5% of known victims and 17.6 % of known offenders.  The highest number of incidents occurred in the month of September (11.9%) while the lowest occurred in November (6.2%) with an average of 32 reports per month.    34.2% of all reporting occurred at an academic   institution; elementary/secondary through college/ university.    Spatial analysis of all reports indicate a heavy concentration in areas of high populations in central Maryland. According to the US Census Bureau, the projected population in Maryland counties in 2019 ranged from 37,181 in Talbot County to 1,050,688 in Montgomery County.  Analysis of the previous 10 years depicts an increase in overall reporting (verified, inconclusive and unfounded), with a modest increase in verified reporting.

When reporting victim information, all pertinent victim information is recorded, including, but not limited to; age, sex, ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation. If reporting an event concerning a religious building, for example, the religious affiliation would be pertinent information. Of all reported incidents in 2019, victims categorized as individual comprised 70.0% followed by government at 7.5%, business at 5.7%, religious organization at 2.8%, other at 11.9% and unknown at 1.2%. There can be more than one victim type per incident report. For example, one report can have multiple victims involved in one religious organization. There were 16 reported apparent minor injuries and one incident involving major injuries reported in 2019. A total of 17 injuries were also reported the previous year. Offenders A hate bias incident could be caused by a single individual, a group of individuals, or a representative of a hate group. In nearly all hate bias incidents reported in 2019, the offenders causing these incidents were single individuals. There were 15 verified reports that involved Klu Klux Klan (KKK) propaganda materials left on properties or defacing various surfaces with swastikas and “KKK”. The KKK or swastikas were mentioned in those narratives, but it is not indicated if the offenders are members of the KKK. There were no other groups mentioned in the report narratives. No specific addresses or locations are collected other than the zip code of where the incident took place. No names or personal identifiable information are reported to maintain confidentiality.

Academic institutions as a whole accounted for over one-third of all hate bias incident locations, schoolelementary/secondary at 22.0% and colleges/universities locations at 12.2%. Weapons Of the hate bias incidents reported in 2019, 34 indicated the use of a weapon on the Form 11. In terms of verified incidents, 15 reported the use of a weapon. Moreover, it was implicit based on the incident type that an assault using a weapon did occur in 17 verified incidents. Since the reporter did not specifically indicate that a weapon was used on the Form 11, it is not counted in Figure 12. The 15 verified incidents referenced the use of a knife, firearm, dangerous weapon or “personal” in an assault. “Personal” refers to using body parts such as arms, fists, or legs to inflict harm on the victim by way of punching or hitting. Not all reports indicated a specific type of “personal” weapon used. In other cases, an incident was reported as a simple assault using hands and feet. Nearly half of verified incidents involving a weapon occurred in a residence/home. Arrests There were 16 arrests made as a result of a hate or bias verified incident in 2019. Over 80% of arrests were as a result of R/E/A incidents alone. The number of arrests in 2019 was consistent with what was reported in 2018. However, there is an overall 40.7% decrease in arrests between 2019 and 2017.

Symbol  Range  (# of reports)     0  There were no hate bias incidents or no report was submitted by the following counties: Allegany, Calvert, Caroline, Cecil, Dorchester, Queen Anne’s, Saint Mary's, Talbot, Washington and Worcester. As such, they are not represented in Figure 14. Zip code 20742 in Prince George’s County reported the most hate bias incidents at 19.  Additional zip codes that yielded more than 12 incidents include 21122 (Anne Arundel), 21252 (Baltimore), and 20850 (Montgomery).  Six counties have not reported a hate bias incident in the last three years.    1     2‐5     6‐11     12‐19        Figure 15: All hate bias reports in 2019 by zip code UNCLASSIFIED 11 UNCLASSIFIED V. Ten Year Summary Between 2010 and 2019, the lowest total incidents reported occurred in 2014 with 155 while 2017 had the most at 398. The largest drop in hate bias reporting was also in 2014 with a decrease of 38.5% from the previous year. Linear trend line for all reports indicate an upward trend. Although the trend in verified hate bias reporting is on a slight upward trend, the rate of increase is significantly less compared to total reporting. It is important to note there were additions to protected categories such as homelessness in 2012 along with gender and gender identity in 2015. Figure 16: Percent change by year of total reporting Reporting by County Between 2010 - 2019 an average of 15 counties reported at least one hate bias incident in a year.

VI. Considerations In summary, law enforcement and other human relations agencies across the State should continue to monitor bias related problems in their communities. Maryland citizens and law enforcement agencies must continually be diligent in reporting hate bias incidents. Law enforcement personnel are often the first to arrive on the scene of hate bias crimes and therefore need to be continually educated on the recognition of hate bias to ensure that all incidents are reported accurately. In order to meet the needs of the community, training on the recognition, investigation, and reporting of potential hate crimes and incidents remains important. It is equally crucial to explore the cooperation of law enforcement and the community in addressing hate bias. The concept of community policing throughout Maryland should continue to incorporate bias related issues.

Hate Crime Laws disability, or sexual orientation.” Anti-hate crime legislated acts include the following: The Hate Crimes Statistics Act of 1990 - This act requires the Department of Justice to collect data on hate crimes. Hate crimes are defined as “manifest prejudice based on race, religion, sexual orientation, or ethnicity.” The FBI compiles these statistics using the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) system. The Crime Act of 1994 also requires the FBI to collect data on hate crimes involving disability. The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act - On 28 October 2009, President Obama signed this piece of legislation into law. It is attached to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010.ii This law expanded existing United States Federal hate crime law to include crimes motivated by a victim’s actual or perceived gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability, and dropped the prerequisite that the victim be engaging in a federally protected activity. Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 1999 - This act prohibits persons from interfering with an individual’s federal rights (e.g., voting or employment) by violence or threat of violence due to his or her race, color, religion, or national origin. This act allows for more authority for the Federal government to investigate and prosecute hate crime offenders who committed their crime because of perceived sexual orientation, gender, or disability of the victim. It also permits the Federal government to prosecute without having to prove that the victim was attacked because he or she was performing a federally protected activity. Campus Hate Crimes Right to Know Act of 1997 - This act requires campus security/police authorities to collect and report data on hate crimes committed on the basis of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, or disability. The Church Arson Prevention Act of 1996 - This act created the National Church Arson Task Force (NCATF) in June 1996 to oversee the investigation and prosecution of arson at houses of worship around the country. The NCATF has brought together FBI, ATF, and Department of Justice prosecutors in partnership with state and local law enforcement officers and prosecutors. In addition to the NCATF’s creation, the law allowed for a broader Federal criminal jurisdiction to aid criminal prosecutions and established a loan guarantee recovery fund for rebuilding. The Hate Crimes Sentencing Enhancement Act - As a part of the 1994 Crime Act, the Hate Crimes Sentencing Enhancement Act provides for longer sentences when the offense is determined to be a hate crime. A longer sentence may be imposed if it is proven that a crime against a person or property was motivated by “race, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, gender, Maryland Code Public Safety § 2-307 - “(a) The Department shall collect, analyze, and disseminate information about the incidence of crime in the State. (b -1) The Department shall collect and analyze information about incidents apparently directed against an individual or group because of race, religion, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. Maryland extended hate crimes protection to homeless people under a bill signed on 7 May 2009. The bill adds homelessness to the protected categories under Maryland’s hate crimes law, which allows prosecutors to seek tougher penalties for those who target people because of factors such as race, ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation.iii Maryland Code Criminal Law Subtitle 3 § 10-304 adds homeless persons and groups and gender to the protected classes under State hate crime statutes. “Because of another's race, color, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin, or because another is homeless, a person may not: (1-i) commit a crime or attempt to commit a crime against that person; (1-ii) damage the real or personal property of that person; (1iii) deface, damage, or destroy, or attempt to deface, damage, or destroy the real or personal property of that person; or (1-iv) burn or attempt to burn an object on the real or personal property of that person.” In March 2014, the Maryland General Assembly passed legislation adding “transgender” people to the list of protected classes. The law prohibits discrimination based on gender identity in housing and employment, in obtaining credit, and in access to public accommodations. This law took effect on 1 October 2014.iv _______________________________________________________________________ i Alison M. Smith and Cassandra L.

product was developed by the Maryland Department of State Police in partnership with the Maryland Coordina on and Analysis Center. The data behind this report comes from the Maryland Supplementary Hate Bias Incident Repor ng, which is mandated for all Maryland law enforcement agencies to complete when a hate bias incident is encountered. The requirement collects informa on on date, me, incident type, bias mo va on, clearance, vic m and offender demographics, locaon, weapons used, injuries, value of property damage, and a wri en summary of the incident, amongst other things. The informa on reported is based on individual agency policy and procedures, as well as the individual officer’s level of training and exper se. The reports are collected by the Maryland State Police Central Records Division as mandated by law and are then provided to the MCAC. If a hate bias incident occurs and is not reported to law enforcement, an Incident Report is not filled out and is not submi ed. All incidents included in this analysis are counted as to what they are marked upon their most current receipt. This analysis is current as of 1 July 2020. Incident reports received a er 1 July 2020 will be reflected in the 2019 report. Assistance from the Maryland State Police and the Maryland Coordina on and Analysis Center is available to any law enforcement agency that collects the informa on for invesga ve and repor ng purposes. h p://www.mcac.maryland.gov/ UNCLASSIFIED 63
