FOI REF: FOI-2023-1614

You asked

Please supply statistics on hate crime convictions and sentences in England and Wales 2009 - 2023. Broken down by convictions, sentences and duration of sentence broken down by protected category as per the 2010 EA.  I am particularly interested if any hate crimes prosecutions ended in a homicide conviction and what the sentence was so please supply data for that.

I would like to know how many people were convicted of a hate crime in England and Wales between 2009 and 2023, found guilty and sentenced and what that the sentence was i.e. how many years? Importantly I would like to know the offence type i.e. assault with injury, assault without injury, sexual assault, homicide (murder and manslaughter) the conviction, sentence and sentence, against offence type.
