The Top Offender List training provides insight and guidance in developing a “top offender list” documenting the roughly 6% of individuals responsible for over 60% of violent crime. Establishing a top offender list enables law enforcement to better identify individuals responsible for driving the crime, improve intelligence-sharing, and implement strategies for addressing the individuals disproportionately responsible for gun violence. The training covers the specific criteria for selecting individuals, as well as how to maintain, validate, and sustain a top offender list. Additionally, the training will provide examples of how other departments have incorporated such lists into their crime control initiatives and suggestions on maintaining the target offender strategy once it is initiated.
