The dark figure of crime can be referred to as the crimes which remain either undiscovered or unreported by the Police, therefore as a result they are not truly represented in official crime statistics. The main aspects which some may say contribute to the dark figure of crime are failure for public to report crimes or the Police's failure to record all reported incidents of crime.........

Does the ucr capture the so called dark figure of crime?

The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program primarily captures reported crimes, meaning it does not effectively account for the "dark figure of crime," which refers to unreported or undiscovered criminal activities. As a result, the UCR statistics may underrepresent the true extent of crime in society. Factors such as fear of reporting, social stigma, or distrust in law enforcement contribute to this underreporting. Thus, while the UCR provides valuable data, it does not fully reflect the reality of criminal activity.
