Original Note:
Arrests do not equal convictions. It is important to remember that the US considers every person innocent until proven guilty. It is quite possible that multiple arrests came from racial profiling or misidentification of a suspect. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presumption_of_innocence https://www.aclu.org/issues/racial-justice/race-and-criminal-justice/racial-profiling https://www.nyclu.org/commentary/black-latinx-people-were-90-percent-those-arrested-nypd-traffic-stops
