Description

The following assumptions were listed for the FBI MA crime data:

* Only 2018
* Doesn’t cover all jurisdictions but included Boston + Lawrence
* Historical data is missing Boston / Lawrence

We should verify that these assumptions are, well, warranted.

Research direction

Locate the notebook or notes where the Massachusetts NIBRS assumptions are recorded, then consult the FBI data coverage and historical records. Verify each assumption about year, jurisdiction coverage, and missing Boston or Lawrence data, and document the evidence and any corrections.
