Fig. 3-1-5-1 shows the percent distribution of the number of cleared cases for major offenses in 2002, according to whether or not the offender was an acquaintance of the victim. The percentages of crimes committed against relatives or other acquaintances were relatively high for homicide and bodily injury, while the percentages of crimes committed against non-acquaintances were generally high for property and sexual offenses. Among property offenses, the percentages of crimes committed against acquaintances were higher for extortion and fraud than for robbery and larceny. Among sexual offenses, the percentages of crimes against acquaintances were higher for rape than for indecent assault.
