The number of ex-felons returning to prison in Monterey County has declined by about 10 percent, largely due the state's realignment that redirects some offenders to county jail as well as into rehabilitative programs. Monterey County had a 59.8 percent three-year return-to-prison rate for parole of those offenders released during fiscal year 2009-2010, according to the newly released 2014 Outcome Evaluation Report by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. "Recidivism" is defined as whether a person returns to state prison for a new crime or parole violation within three years, according to the Board of State and Community Corrections. This a sharp drop from Monterey County's 70.9 percent three-year return rate in fiscal year 2007-2008 and 70.1 percent in fiscal year 2006-2007. Read More. |
