May 28, 2009 Ladies and Gentlemen: I would like to present the 2008 Law Enforcement Officers Killed or Assaulted (LEOKA) Report. This is the annual report published by the TBI presenting information on reported incidents of assaults or deaths of law enforcement officers in the line of duty that occurred in Tennessee. The information contained in the report is based on crime statistics information submitted by law enforcement agencies in Tennessee to TBI’s Tennessee Incident Based Reporting System (TIBRS) program. TIBRS is the state version of the FBI’s National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) program. The information collected by TBI conforms to the national standard as presented in the FBI’s annual LEOKA report. Please see www.tncrimeonline.com for additional information. I am very proud of the efforts of all participating law enforcement agencies in the state to provide the data necessary to produce this report. Our combined efforts have resulted in a successful program and this annual report providing information on incidents involving assaults and deaths of our law enforcement officials. Sincerely, Mark Gwyn
Director
Mark Gwyn Director
PHIL BREDESEN Governor
