What it is
Moosed Crime publishes what the public record shows: the police department's own statistics tables, the sheriff's own jail roster, and court outcomes, each number traced to the source it came from. The first city desk is Fort Wayne, Indiana, with a permanent searchable bookings archive covering the jails around the city.
Every desk carries the same sections and the same sourcing rules: stats from the agency's own published tables, labeled as reported offenses and never dressed up as outcomes; current inmates kept separate from the permanent archive; official investigations; and the desk's own investigations.
Arrest is not a conviction.
How the desk works
Primary public records only, cited by table and period. An arrest is not a conviction, and the site says so on every page. No city is added with aggregator data.
