The reason why the crime indexes no longer included in the uniform crime reporting program is that it showed that larceny theft was the largest of the categories so it carried undue weight and led the under appreciation of changes in the rates of more violence and serious crimes. The uniform crime reporting is an older system and only records index crimes. The problem with the uniform crime reporting is that many crimes are reported inaccurately or not at all. The uniform crime reporting program publishes crime in the united states, which provides an annual summary of the incidence and rate of reported crimes throughout the united states.
