TABLE SET II:	THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS

C.	Victims: Explanatory Notes For Table Set II.C

Table Set II.C presents a variety of statistics about the victims of the capital offenses charged against defendants during the reporting period. In all of these tables, the victim-related statistics are drawn from cases in which defendants were charged with offenses that were known to have resulted in the death of at least one victim. Five white defendants from the Eastern District of Virginia were charged with espionage, a crime for which there were no identifiable victims, and are thus excluded from all of the statistics reported in Table Set II.C.

The statistics in all of these tables are skewed to some degree by two cases in which defendants were charged with bombing offenses that resulted in the deaths of massive numbers of victims. Specifically, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York recommended seeking the death penalty against certain defendants in connection with the bombing of the American embassies in Tanzania and Kenya. The indictment in that case charged the defendants with responsibility for the death of 223 victims (of whom, 7 were White, 215 were Black, and 1 was Other). The U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Oklahoma recommended seeking the death penalty against two defendants in connection with the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. The indictment in that case charged the defendants with responsibility for the death of 160 victims (of whom, 121 were White, 32 were Black, 5 were Hispanic, and 2 were Other).1 Between them, these cases account for 383 victims out of the total 894 (43 percent) in the post-protocol period. Although not all of the statistics presented below are reported with and without the inclusion of these two cases, the effect of these two cases can to some extent be seen by making the following comparison:

a.	Overview: Tables 9A and 9B report the racial/ethnic distribution of victims in all of the cases submitted for review by United States Attorneys, as well as the same information broken down by the recommendation for or against seeking the death penalty, with Table 9A reporting on the 682 post-protocol submissions and Table 9B reporting on the 52 pre-protocol submissions.

b.	Interracial and interracial homicides: The twelve tables labeled with the number 10 (10A to 10B-5) report on the extent to which the homicides at issue in the cases submitted by United States Attorneys for review were intraracial and interracial. Due to space limitations and the number of variable factors addressed (race/ethnicity of defendant, race/ethnicity of victim, and recommendation of the United States Attorney), it is not possible to report all of the relevant statistics on this topic in a single table with a district-by-district analysis. Accordingly, with respect to the post-protocol period, Table 10A provides an overview of the extent to which homicides were intraracial and interracial homicides without a district- by-district breakdown, and is followed by additional tables (labeled with numbered suffixes, as 10A-1 to 10A-5) that provide district-by-district information for cases involving victims in specific racial/ethnic categories. In addition to separate tables for cases involving exclusively White victims (Table 10A-1), exclusively Black victims (Table 10A-2), exclusively Hispanic victims (Table 10A-3), and exclusively Other victims (Table 10A-4),2 there is also a table to account for the cases in which a defendant was charged with killing multiple victims who were not all of the same race/ethnicity (Table 10A-5).3 The same analysis is provided with respect to the pre-protocol period in Tables 10B and 10B-1 to 10B-5.

c.	Number of victims: The six tables labeled with the number 11 (11A to 11B-2) report the extent to which the submitted defendants were charged in single- and multiple-victim cases. Here again space limitations and the number of variable factors addressed (race/ethnicity of defendant, number of victims, and recommendation of the United States Attorney) make it impossible to report all of the relevant statistics on this topic in a single table with a district-by-district analysis. Accordingly, with respect to the post-protocol period, Table 11A provides an overview of the extent to which homicides involved single or multiple victims without a district-by-district breakdown, and is followed by additional tables (labeled with numbered suffixes, as 11A-1 and 11A-2) that provide district-by-district information for cases involving single victims (Table 11A-1) and multiple victims (Table 11A-2). The same analysis is provided with respect to the pre-protocol period in Tables 11B, 11B-1 and 11B-2.4
