clearance rate

This is because a police force may employ a different way of measuring clearance rates.

One police force may appear to have a much better clearance rate because of its calculation methodology.

Will has solved 89% of his cases, a phenomenal clearance rate.

I think Ned cares more about the truth than his clearance rate.

In fact, the clearance rate for bank robbery is among the highest of all crimes, at nearly 60%.

The clearance rate is the ratio of homicide cases closed in the 12-month period to homicides reported during that time.

But Schulhofer points out that clearance rates had actually been gradually dropping since 1959.

So as crime reporting became more rigorous and professional in the late 1960's, clearance rates appeared to decline.

Please note, entries with specific authorities usually take longer to process, which means a slower clearance rate.

A clearance rate of 60 to 75 percent in murder cases is considered average, Chief Kelly said.
