What is NOT classified as a crime under NIBRS definitions?

Incest is not classified as a crime under the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) and the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) definitions, which focus primarily on specific, measurable offenses that can be uniformly reported across jurisdictions. The NIBRS collects data on 49 specific crimes, including robbery, murder, and burglary, all of which involve clear and tangible actions against individuals or property that can be readily documented and categorized.

In contrast, while incest is indeed a crime in many jurisdictions, it is often classified within broader categories of offenses dealing with family law or sexual offenses that may not fall under the same reporting requirements or definitions used by NIBRS. Thus, while all the other listed offenses are prominently recognized under NIBRS definitions, incest stands apart as it may not be included in the same framework for crime reporting.
