DEFINITION The CY 2017 Family Violence Arrest Report contains information on the number of family violence arrests occurring during CY 2017 which were reported to the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, State Police Division, Crimes Analysis Unit, by Connecticut law enforcement agencies prior to July 20, 2018. As defined in Connecticut General Statute 46b-38d(b), “Each police department, including resident troopers and constables, shall report all family violence incidents where an arrest occurs to the Commissioner of Emergency Services and Public Protection, who shall compile statistics of family violence crimes and cause them to be published annually in the Connecticut Uniform Crime Report.” Police in Connecticut are required to make an arrest whenever they respond to a call that involves family violence and there is sufficient probable cause to affect an arrest. As defined in Connecticut General Statue 46b-38a(1), "Family violence" means an incident resulting in physical harm, bodily injury or assault, or an act of threatened violence that constitutes fear of imminent physical harm, bodily injury or assault, including, but not limited to, stalking or a pattern of threatening, between family or household members. Verbal abuse or argument shall not constitute family violence unless there is present danger and the likelihood that physical violence will occur. "Family violence crime" does not include acts by parents or guardians disciplining minor children unless such acts constitute abuse. According to Connecticut General Statute 46b-38a(2), "Family or household member" means any of the following persons, regardless of the age of such person: (A) Spouses or former spouses; (B) parents or their children; (C) persons related by blood or marriage; (D) persons other than those persons described in subparagraph (C) of this subdivision presently residing together or who have resided together; (E) persons who have a child in common regardless of whether they are or have been married or have lived together at any time; and (F) persons in, or who have recently been in, a dating relationship. ANALYSIS Volume There were 16,662 reported incidents of family violence CY 2017. This represents a 5.9 percent decrease (1,044) from the number reported in CY 2016 (17,706).

Percent Participants by Gender

Relationship of Participants 0ffenses Due to policy changes designed to strengthen family violence data, beginning with CY 2014 all victim offenses occurring in family violence arrests are counted. In previous years, one offense type was recorded for each incident following a hierarchy rule to ensure the most serious offense was counted. Also, there are a number of changes in the offense categories on the Family Violence Offense Report, form DPS-230-C (Appendix 1), the form that is submitted to DESPP when a family violence arrest is made.

New offenses beginning in CY 2014 include stalking, strangulation, and threatening. Offenses combined on the new version of the form are breach of peace and disorderly conduct. Offenses that were previously combined and now individually counted are violation of court order and other. Offenses with no change are homicide, assault, kidnapping, sexual assault, and risk of injury. While not affecting the incident total, these changes increased the total number reported offenses making the offense count not comparable to previous years. During CY 2017, the family violence offenses equaled 28,088, a decrease of 4.5 percent compared to the 29,424 reported in CY 2016. Breach of peace/disorderly conduct was the most common family violence offense (13,304) accounting for 47.4 percent of total offenses.

Several victim characteristics, while not consistent across all studies, have been associated with renewed abuse after placement of the initial protection order. These include socioeconomic status, presence of biological children with the abuser, race/ethnicity, and prior drug use by the victim. 1,2,3 Mears 3 and Carlson et al. 2 found that the socioeconomic status of the victim is related to increased risk of renewed abuse after a protection order has been placed. Women of very low versus low/medium socioeconomic status experience a significantly lesser decline in reported violence after a restraining order 2 suggesting that they are at overall higher risk of re-victimization. The presence of biological children between the victim and defendant may be another important factor to consider. Carlson et al. 2 found that the presence of children increases the odds of reporting re-abuse by a factor of 4.5 in relationships lasting less than five years. Other investigators found that, although the overall abuse risk is not higher, women with children are more likely to experience violence and more likely to be threatened or have property damage. 1 Race of the victim has also been identified as a significant factor in renewed abuse. Black women are at elevated risk of renewed abuse after legal intervention (PO or arrest of partner for DV incident). 2, 3 More specifically, Mears reported a relative risk of re-abuse of for black women when compared with white women (risk among Hispanics was not higher relative to that among whites). 3 Drug use by the victim is also associated with increased re-victimization after legal intervention. 3 Several perpetrator characteristics may predict renewed abuse after initiation of a protection order. These include a history of violence or criminal acts, 1, 4, 5, 6 being male, 5 youthful age, 6 less than full-time employment, 4 substance abuse, 4, 5 and other mental health contact. 5 Overall, a violent or criminal history is the characteristic most frequently associated with protection order violation. In a limited study by Chaudhuri and Daly, 4 men with criminal histories all violated protection orders. In addition, the offender's criminal history, including alcohol and drug convictions, has been associated with placement of protection orders7 and with continued violence afterward. 4, 5 6
