The capital Rio Branco concentrates the largest number of cases, with 250 records. Then appear Cruzeiro do Sul, with 106, and Tarauacá, with 41 occurrences.

The data also indicate that most crimes were consummated. Of the 128 registered rapes, 118 were consummated and 10 attempted. Among the 536 vulnerable rapes, 526 were consummated and 10 attempted.
