a new report that offers a data-forward look into the significant
challenges and innovations in the District of Columbia’s adult and youth
criminal legal systems during the last year. As the District continues to
navigate the public health crisis and address the racial disparities at the
center of D.C.’s criminal legal system, the tenacity of local residents and
advocates led to meaningful changes in 2021.
Several key findings include:
- The District saw a 36% increase in homicides between 2019 and 2021,
with both the victims and suspects of homicides and nonfatal shoots being
overwhelmingly male, Black, and between the ages of 18 and 34.
- Between January 2020 and June 2021, D.C. Superior Court’s active
criminal caseload grew by 79%, going from 5,707 cases as the pandemic
began, to 10,199 during the height of the Delta variant and after more than
a year of shutdowns.
- The Federal Bureau of Prisons did not grant any of the 206
compassionate release motions they received from people convicted of D.C.
Code Offenses between January 2021 to October 2021.
- Despite an increase in youth involvements in carjackings, overall
youth arrests in D.C. decreased by 52% between 2019 and 2021, dropping from
2,759 to 1,325.
- The number of people under Court Supervision and Offender Services
Agency (CSOSA) supervision for probation decreased by 50.8%, with people
under CSOSA supervision parole decreasing by 22.8% and supervised release
decreasing by 22% between January 2019 and September 2021.
Building off the 2019

this
report presents the most recent available data in five areas of concern:
Policing and Violence; Adult Prosecution and the Courts; Incarceration;
Reentry; and Youth Justice.
“By providing an annualized, bird’s eye view of the District’s criminal
legal system, advocates, policymakers, journalists, and interested
residents are able to observe trends in local progress towards reducing
D.C.’s criminal legal system’s disproportionate impact on Black residents,
fixing systemic issues, and enacting meaningful, lasting reforms,” says
Casey Anderson, CCE’s Policy and Communications Manager, who was the
report’s primary author.
