Note: Data on time from arrest to adjudication were available for 99% of all cases. The median time from arrest to adjudication includes cases still pending at the end of the study. Knowing the exact times for these cases would not change the medians reported. Murder cases were tracked for up to 2 years. All other cases were tracked for up to 1 year.,,,,,,,,,,,,
