Entry Criteria

The entry criteria field must have one of the following designations: A, AB, AC, AD, AE, AF, BC, BD, BE, BF, CD, CE, CF, DE, DF, or EF. The designations AB, AC, AD, AE, and AF can be used, but are optional because criteria A may support entry on its own. The designators listed below are consistent with the criteria required for entry of a GMC record:

A

 Self-admitted group membership at time of arrest or incarceration.

B

Identified as a group member by a reliable informant or individual.

C

Corroborated identification as a group member by an informant or individual of unknown reliability.

D

E

Has been arrested with known group members for offenses consistent with group activity.

F
