AIMS ARE TO: By meeting these objectives policy makers and administrators in the criminal justice system can develop and implement strategies which reduce crime, and provide a more efficient, effective and equitable justice system. The Bureau audits the police crime figures by comparing them with insurance claim figures and police emergency calls for service. Trends in these data generally mirror the trends in crime recorded by police on COPS, providing further confirmation that the downward trend in crime is not the result of any failure on the part of police to record crime

CRIMINAL JUSTICE RESOURCES Crime Statistics Overview Crime Statistics Reports Available in the Main Library Crime Statistics Reports Available over the World Wide Web City and County Crime Statistics ... The Cost of Employee Fraud and Abuse Crime is the most important subject on the public agenda today according to most national polls. Citizens of all races are fearful of violence and concerned about their own safety. People want their legislators and law enforcement leaders at all levels of government to develop effective strategies to reduce crime and ensure safety. This web page provides a compilation of resources on this topic, including both resources that are available in the Michigan State University Main Library as well as those that are available over the world wide web. In the most comprehensive study of its type, an article in the October issue of the Journal of Law and Economics (University of Chicago Press) says that crime costs $4,100 per person, or $1.7 trillion in 1997 dollars. The report, researched and written by David Anderson, an economist at Davidson College in North Carolina, covered such details as police and private security expenses, corrections costs, expense of crime-related injuries, amount of theft. Anderson says that criminals annually steal $603 billion in assets while also creating an additional $1.1 trillion worth of lost productivity. Overview In order to compare criminal justice statistics, it is important to realize the differences between the various data gathering mechanisms. The following web sites discuss the two major crime measures in the United States, as well as measures taken to modify them over the years.

Posters Rehabilitation Statistics Study On Effectiveness of Prison Ministries By George Cornell, AP Religion Writer (Edited from The Wilson Daily Times, December 1, 1990) Prisoners who come under religious influence while they're behind the walls do better once they're back on the outside and in society than those who lack the religious influence, researchers say. The findings of the first-of-its-kind study on the rehabilitative effect of religion on prisoners could have wide implications for the prison system, although more study is needed, the researchers say. "The results are phenomenal," said John Gartner of Baltimore, a clinical psychologist who headed the five-member research team. "There haven't been any findings of effectiveness that were this strong." It was found that prisoners who received religious instruction while in prison had a lower rate of recidivism - return to crime - after being freed than did those who had no such instruction.

18. Crime: Is Today's Incarceration An Effective Crime Deterrent? Lets bring back some of the crime deterring qualities of the prisons of 30 years ago. Let s make incarceration an effective crime deterrent as it once was. http://www.hardcoretruth.com/US_Prisons/

Is Today's Incarceration An Effective Crime Deterrent? The major question that comes to my mind regarding crime statistics is "Why is it that the number of people that are incarcerated in the U.S. is rising at an unprecedented rate?" Analyst say that the crime rate has remained relatively flat over the last 15 years, but today we are seeing the most rapid growth in our nation's prison population since the first prisons were established in the 19th century. Some say that this incarceration increase is due to the crack down on drug users. Other say that it is due to the fact that sentenced offenders are more likely to be sent to prison for there crimes than ever before. But I can tell you first hand why our prisons are over populating. I use to be a correctional officer at a maximum security prison in Riverside, Texas. The reason our prisons are over populating is because incarceration is no longer an effective crime deterrent. A. Incarceration is not the same as it used to be: 1. 30 years ago people who watched over inmates were called guards.

20. The Crime Of Black Imprisonment Eight of the 12 states that border on Canada rank in the bottom 20 in overall crime rates. There is no viable evidence that prisons prevent crime. http://www-unix.oit.umass.edu/~kastor/ceml_articles/continuing.html

THE CONTINUING CRIME OF BLACK IMPRISONMENT by The Committee to End the Marion Lockdown 3/27/95 The least controversial observation that one can make about American criminal justice today is that it is remarkably ineffective, absurdly expensive, grossly inhumane, and riddled with discrimination. The beating of Rodney King was a reminder of the ruthlessness and racism that characterize many big city police departments. But the other aspects of the justice system, especially sentencing practices and prison conditions, are every bit as harsh and unfair.(1) The Committee to End the Marion Lockdown (CEML) was founded in 1985 to fight against the brutality of the United States Penitentiary at Marion. In 1987, we wrote that by the year 2000 the U.S. might have 1,000,000 people in prison. At that time U.S. prisons held 561,000 people, and most of our friends thought the notion of 1,000,000 prisoners was foolish. In the Fall of 1994, the U.S. announced that it sent its millionth human being to prison in June,(2) more than five years sooner than the projection that was considered foolish just a few years ago. What we would like to do in this paper is examine the growth of imprisonment in the U.S. We will then analyze the nature of crime, and then the relationship between crime and imprisonment. Since crime and imprisonment are in fact not closely related, we will conclude the article by discussing why the U.S. is sending so many people to prison. IMPRISONMENT
