The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not have a formal definition for \u2018violent crime\u2019, but it does hold management information on its Case Management System showing the number of defendants allocated the Principal Offence Categories of either Homicide or Offences Against the Person at completion of prosecution. The Principal Offence Category indicates the most serious offence with which a defendant is charged.<\/p>

<\/p>

The tables below show the number of completed prosecutions and convictions for Homicide and Offences Against the Person from the start of January 2005 to the end of September 2015. The data provided in the tables is in financial quarters.<\/p>

<\/p>

\u2018Total completed prosecutions\u2019 refer to the conclusion of a prosecution case against a defendant such as conviction after trial, guilty plea, acquittal, or the prosecution against the defendant being dropped. \u2018Convictions\u2019 refer to convictions after trial and guilty pleas.<\/p>
