Note. Dr Morgenbesser’s data-set is based upon his review
of media sources (i.e. newspapers, TV websites, TV broadcasts) for
any type of gun crime incident. The official dataset is based
upon reports to the State DCJS (Division of Criminal Justice Services),
within the “Uniform Crime/Incident Based Reporting Systems”,
by the City of Albany-Police Department.
For the official dataset, “Firearm” crime is a subset
of “Violent” Crime reported by the Police Department-City
of Albany to State DCJS.
