SUBJECT: County Jail Report August 2006

Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Report for August 2006. This report reflects the inmate population on August 3, 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 August 2006, the number of inmates held in county jails increased by 879 inmates to 36,940. The new capacity will be 38,245, an increase of 14 inmates, as Lowndes County's recently expanded their jail and their new capacity is 620, was 606. The number of inmates awaiting trial increased by 1,134 inmates to 23,512, and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions decreased by 466 inmates to 2,892.

The jail report is available at http://www.dca.state.ga.us/development/research/programs/jailReports.asp.
