The Florida County Detention Facilities Summary provides a monthly profile of the State's detention facilities inmate population; this report presents average daily inmate population figures for October 1992.
Abstract
The inmate population figures are collapsed into male and female categories for both adult and juvenile inmates. These population figures are also categorized into felony, misdemeanor, and "other" subcategories so as to facilitate interpretation. Within both felony and misdemeanor subcategories, the number of inmates held for trial or sentencing and those detained or sentenced for violation of probation are presented for October 1992. The "other" subcategory documents the number of parole violators, State inmates, undocumented aliens, holdings for other jurisdictions, and individuals detained under the Baker (mental health) and Myers (alcoholism) Acts. In addition, the average daily population figures, the incarceration rates for each county, the number of overcrowded county detention facilities, and the pretrial inmate levels for each facility are included in this report. County detention facilities with amended capacities since September 1992 are denoted in one table. The statewide average daily population totals for October 1991 include 30,385 adult males (87.3 percent), 3,526 adult females (10.1 percent), and 896 juvenile offenders (2.6 percent). 4 tables and 3 figures
