SUBJECT: County Jail Report January 2009

Enclosed is the County Jail Inmate Report for January 2009. This report reflects the inmate population on January 1, 2009. 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 2009, the number of inmates held in county jails decreased by 1,212 inmates to 39,919. The capacity increased by 72 to 42,228 as Bleckley County recently opened a jail (72 capacity); prior to this they did not have a jail. The number of inmates awaiting trial increased by 238 inmates to 23,956, and the number of sentenced inmates awaiting transfer to State Institutions decreased by 179 inmates to 5,277.

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