ViCAP Case Submission Form
Behavioral Analysis Units
The mission of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Units is to provide behaviorally-based investigative and operational support to federal, state, local, tribal, and foreign law enforcement, intelligence and security agencies.
Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (ViCAP)
Established by the Department of Justice in 1985, ViCAP serves law enforcement agencies across the nation by providing a free repository for behavioral and investigative information related to the following solved and unsolved violent crimes (if questions arise regarding whether a case meets the listed criteria, please contact FBI ViCAP for guidance):
• Homicides (and attempts) that are known or suspected to be part of a series and/or are apparently random, motiveless, or sexually oriented.
• Sexual Assaults that are known or suspected to be part of a series and/or are committed by a stranger.
• Missing Persons where the circumstances indicate a strong possibility of foul play and the victim is still missing.
• Unidentified Human Remains where the manner of death is known or suspected to be homicide.
ViCAP’s services include crime analysis; the creation of maps, timelines, and matrices; information dissemination; the facilitation and coordination of communication between agencies; task force assistance; and the development and maintenance of ViCAP. ViCAP’s services and ViCAP Database access are provided at no cost to law enforcement agencies.
ViCAP National Crime Database: Electronic Submission
ViCAP’s National Crime Database (ViCAP) is a web-based application available to law enforcement agencies nationwide through secure connectivity of the FBI’s Criminal Justice Information Services Division, Law Enforcement Enterprise Portal (LEEP). ViCAP enables law enforcement agencies to enter and analyze their own violent crime information on a local level, and facilitates the identification of similar cases on a regional, state, and national basis. Cases received in hard copy form will be entered into the database by ViCAP personnel; however, law enforcement agencies are encouraged to enter their cases directly, via LEEP.
For information on how to gain access to ViCAP, contact FBI ViCAP and request the analyst assigned to your state, or visit the ViCAP JusticeConnect page on LEEP.
Instructions
• Follow directions associated with each question, such as “check all that apply” and “describe below.”
• If in doubt about how to respond to a given item, be guided by your experience and good judgment. For additional assistance, contact FBI ViCAP and request the analyst assigned to your state.
• If your incident has multiple victims, offenders, or vehicles, copy the appropriate sections of this form and provide separate information for each.
• For sexual assault and attempted homicide victims' name(s), personally identifiable information will be masked in the following locations: Q#7, (Name and Alias), Q#13a/b/c/d/e (SSN, FBI Number, State ID Number, City/County ID Number, Driver's License Number), Q#16a (DOB), Q#43 (Offender-Victim Relationships), Q#86B (Victim License Plate and VIN only), Q#86D (Victim’s name within the Victim dropdown list, and the Vehicle Summary box), Q#88 (Similar/Linked Cases – Victim’s Name only), Victim/Offender Summary box, and on all page headers in which the victim name appears. Information is also masked in Custom Columns, Case Summary Report and Full Case Report.
• If your case includes details that you believe are important but have not been covered by the ViCAP Case Submission Form, please include them in the narrative section (Q#9).
• If at any point you are unable to fit information into the form due to space restrictions, be sure to add it in the table for supplemental information located at the end of this form.
• To provide supplemental or revised information for a case previously submitted to FBI ViCAP, contact the analyst assigned to your state directly, via phone or email. You can also update/modify your own cases via ViCAP.
• If you are interested in obtaining interview, investigative, or media strategies, or a behavioral assessment/profile on this
case, please contact the nearest FBI Field Office and ask to speak to the BAU Coordinator. This individual will provide
information and guidance in this area.
