Keep in mind in those charts under the "race" category they combine Hispanics/Latinos with whites. It isn't until the ethnicity category on the far end does it break it out separately.
If you're interested in the issue of criminal statistics combining these two groups and not allowing truly accurate crime statistics and inflating Caucasian crime statistics then here is another link:
The Alarming Lack of Data on Latinos in the Criminal Justice System
No one knows exactly how many Latinos are arrested each year or how many are in prison, on probation, or on parole.apps.urban.org
No I'm interested in your opinion as to the why the stats are like that.
