M E M O R A N D U M TO: Interested Persons FROM: Tony M. McClung DATE: March 19, 2004 SUBJECT: County Jail Report March 2004 Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Information Report for March 2004. This report reflects the inmate population on Thursday, March 4, 2004. This month, all 149 of the functional county jails provided inmate information. The data in this report represents 100 percent of the county jails reporting and 100 percent of the State's population. In March 2004, the number of inmates held in county jails decreased by 29 inmates to 33,235. Meanwhile, there was no change in the capacity of county jails. The number of inmates awaiting trial decreased by 773 inmates to 19,746 and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions decreased by 227 inmates to 4,226. The complete jail report for each month from January 1987 through March 2004 is available on the web at: http://www.dca.state.ga.us/research/publicsafety.html TMM Enclosures SUMMARY COUNTY JAIL INMATE POPULATION REPORT1 March 4, 2004 ***************************************************************************************************************************************** 1.

Since the purpose of this report is to count the total number of inmates housed in county jails, there are no provisions in this report to separately count the number of inmates sent to other facilities for housing. Rather, each county reports only on the number of inmates held in their facility on the first Thursday of the month. Inmates that are sent elsewhere for housing are counted by the facility housing those inmates.
