¹ The term victim may refer to a person, business, institution, or society as a whole.
² The term known offender does not imply that the identity of the suspect is known, but only that an attribute of the suspect
has been identified, which distinguishes him/her from an unknown offender.
³In a multiple-bias incident two conditions must be met: 1) more than one offense type must occur in the incident and 2) at
least two offense types must be motivated by different biases.
