This annual report for fiscal year 1997 provides statistical data about offenders under the jurisdiction of the Colorado Department of Corrections.
Abstract
An overview of the Department's fiscal 1997 activities includes data on population growth and legislative changes, population projections and escapes and reported incidents. The report profiles offenders incarcerated in secure facilities, placed in community corrections programs and supervised on parole. It also contains data on juvenile offenders sentenced as adults to the Youthful Offender System. The report details sentencing trends, technical prison returns and lengths of stay for releases, and analyzes the impact of mandatory parole provisions for admissions and releases. Ongoing revisions to the Department's information system will correlate offenses directly with the Colorado Revised Statutes and enhance inchoate and habitual offenses to include specific offenses. The current revisions preclude comparisons of most serious crime convictions prior to 1995. Tables, figures, notes, appendixes
