SUBJECT: County Jail Report December 2008

Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Report for December 2008. This report reflects the inmate population on December 4, 2008. 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 December 2008, the number of inmates held in county jails decreased by 400 inmates to 41,131. The capacity will remain the same, 42,156. The number of inmates awaiting trial decreased by 1,037 inmates to 23,718, and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions increased by 343 inmates to 5,456.

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.

Have a good holiday.
