A new inmate classification system took effect recently in the Texas prison system. Prison officials say the new system should help prevent escapes. The previous system labeled inmates who showed they had adjusted to prison life by serving without incident or incurring disciplinary action as 'minimum in.' It made them eligible for low-risk job assignments and dormitory housing. Under the new policy, which went into effect after a year of review, inmates must serve a minimum of ten years before they can receive a low-risk classification. Under the changes, about 700 of 4,000 inmates previously classified as 'minimum in risk' will be reclassified to a higher-risk rating. |
