SUBJECT: County Jail Report January 2007

Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Report for January 2007. This report reflects the inmate population on January 4, 2007. 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 January 2007, the number of inmates held in county jails decreased by 239 inmates to 36,069. The capacity increased by 1,502. The new capacity is 39,747 as Gwinnett County expanded their jail, their new capacity is 2,694 (old capacity was 1,204) and Pulaski County moved in to their new jail, their new capacity is 42 (old capacity was 30). The number of inmates awaiting trial decreased by 331 inmates to 22,495, and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions decreased by 157 inmates to 3,508.

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