What each column does and doesn't cover
Every case states When (date) and Where (state) — 1081 of 1081. Beyond that, a blank cell means the source record does not state that fact, not that it did not happen:
- Setting: stated in 1001 of 1081 cases (93%)
- Drug: stated in 1008 of 1081 cases (93%)
- Method: stated in 846 of 1081 cases (78%)
- Prosecution status: stated in 848 of 1081 cases (78%); a documented penalty (fine, settlement, or restitution) exists for 103 of 1081 cases (10%)
- Role: stated in only 233 of 1081 cases (22%) — filtering or sorting by role silently hides the rest of the registry, which may still describe the same role in prose without a structured field
