How Would You Classify These Clery Crimes in Your ASR?

This incident is a Larceny-Theft because the maintenance worker had a right to be in the office at the time of the theft.

However, it should not be included in your Clery statistics. Larceny-Theft should only be included in your Clery statistics if it motivated by bias, making it a Hate Crime.

Larceny-Theft is defined as the unlawful taking, carrying, leading or riding away of property from the possession or constructive possession of another.

A Hate Crime is a criminal offense that manifests evidence that the victim was intentionally
