M E M O R A N D U M TO: Interested Persons FROM: Brian DiNapoli DATE: May 19, 2008 SUBJECT: County Jail Report May 2008 Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Report for May 2008. This report reflects the inmate population on May 1, 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 May 2008, the number of inmates held in county jails increased by 115 inmates to 38,591. The capacity increased by 216, from 41,553 to 41,769, as Butts County expanded their jail. Their new capacity is 316, was 100. The number of inmates awaiting trial decreased by 334 inmates to 22,630, and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions increased by 47 inmates to 3,974. The jail report is available at http://www.dca.state.ga.us/development/research/programs/jailReports.asp.
