M E M O R A N D U M TO: Interested Persons FROM: Brian DiNapoli DATE: May 31, 2006 SUBJECT: County Jail Report May 2006 Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Report for May 2006. This report reflects the inmate population on May 4, 2006. This month, all 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. Please note this report is a collaborative effort of both state and local agencies/departments, and the publication date is dependent upon a number of variables that are not within the direct control of the Department of Community Affairs. However, we make every effort to release the report as early as possible. In May 2006, the number of inmates held in county jails increased by 778 inmates to 35,686. Total capacity increased by 408 inmates to 38,192. This change is result of a letter that was recently sent to Sheriffs advising them to update their county jail's capacity. The following jails changed their capacity: Peach County (72 capacity was 82), Lanier County (closed, housing inmates in Lowndes County, was 10), Carroll County (645 capacity was 597), Floyd County (790 capacity was 724), Taylor County (27 capacity was 25), Miller County (70 capacity was 24), Liberty County (252 capacity was 112), Pickens County (140 capacity was 44), and Thomas County (270 capacity was 240). The number of inmates awaiting trial increased by 589 inmates to 22,067, and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions decreased by 93 inmates to 3,424. The jail report is available at http://www.dca.state.ga.us/development/research/programs/jailReports.asp Please contact me at 404-679-3147 if you have any questions. /bd Enclosures SUMMARY COUNTY JAIL INMATE POPULATION REPORT1 May 4, 2006 **************************************************************************************************************************** ** 1.
