How many of those non violent convictions are the result of plea deals down from violent felonies?

How many of those violent crime convictions are police officers stating "Stop resisting!" while putting someone in handcuffs and they trip and fall and get a bloody lip and throw assault at the perp? Sadly these are all "what ifs" and not looking at the actual data in front of us.

I don't know, but I think both are reasonable questions.
