Burglars frequently receive probation
By Roger Myers

The Capital-Journal Burglary is an infuriating crime that leaves its victims feeling violated. Burglary victims and Topeka police alike say penalties for the offense should be severe. Under the state's sentencing guidelines law, burglary is a property crime and is punishable by presumptive probation. That means the offender is placed on probation and remains in the community. "We receive a lot of complaints from citizens that the people who are convicted of burglarizing their homes are not getting enough (incarceration) time," said Topeka police spokesman Lt. John Sidwell. "Without a doubt there is a general public perception that the burglary offenders are getting off easy." The Kansas Sentencing Commission has heard that complaint, said Barbara Tombs, executive director of that body. In 1999, the commission proposed and the Legislature approved a change in sentencing guidelines to provide that any second and subsequent convictions for burglary would bring presumptive prison sentences. "The way sentencing guidelines were originally passed, it was difficult to go to prison," Tombs said. "We looked at it and thought that was the best way to handle it.

In 1997, 140 people were murdered, 122, with fire arms. The drug/gun link, a greater willingness of some to carry weapons, and an increasing incidence of domestic violence primarily cause this murder toll. In 1997, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Richmond, VA developed and carried out an aggressive, innovative, and creative approach to violence called PROJECT EXILE.

We are not asking you to ignore crime, or let criminals go unpunished, but we are advocating that corrections staff and society remember that inmates and their families are human beings. Cruelty, sarcasm and degradation are not effective deterrents to recidivism. We would like the State of Oregon to try some of the programs that are being adopted around the country, that are proving successful at reducing recidivism. Four such programs are described on my page, asy Prison Info. You can use the link below to go read about them.

And there are very few things that can meet those two criteria in terms of explaining what happened to crime. I would point first to demographics. There's been a rather substantial change in the number of people in the age 15 to 24 bracket that commit most of the crimes here in the country or that are most likely to commit crime, and the second factor is probably economic growth in combination with reduced opportunities in drug marketing and drug trafficking because of declines in drug use.

Professor criticizes FBI crime statistics
By Stephen Gurr

Staff Writer The current system of looking at national and statewide crime statistics is outdated and ineffective, a University of Georgia professor said Friday.
Dean Rojek, an associate professor of sociology, said the crime index, a statistical device used by the FBI and Georgia Bureau of Investigation to analyze crime numbers, lumps too many diverse crimes into one measure. Statistics released Friday by the GBI showed an overall 1.6 percent decrease between 1997 and 1998 in Georgia's index crimes, classified as murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft. That's compared with a 7 percent decrease nationally.
Rojek believes the FBI's methodology, which is followed in turn by the GBI, doesn't provide a clear enough picture of how the rates of differing crimes change over time.
''They take seven different crimes and add them together and try to make sense out of them,'' Rojek said of the index, which was created in 1927.''To take apples and oranges, to put them together, it just greatly distorts what's going on.''
For instance, larcenies make up more than half of all crimes reported, yet get no more consideration in the index than murders, which remain relatively rare. There were 244,172 larcenies, classified as property crimes such as thefts, in 1998 in Georgia, compared with 583 murders.

Prison Statistics
Why such a high incidence of imprisonment? The following appeared in a Bermuda newspaper, an article by By Tony McWilliam and Don Burgess: Bermuda's a world leader in prison numbers BERMUDA is a world leader when it comes to locking up criminals. The island tops a global league table for imprisonment, beating out even the U.S. and South Africa. Black Bermudian males, however, are far less likely to be in prison than their U.S. counterparts. Figures show there are currently about 280 people incarcerated in Bermuda at Westgate, the Prison Farm and the Co-Ed Facility, including 25 women and some 49 foreigners. That translates to 48 people per 10,000 people in Bermuda's population, compared to 43 in the U.S., 33 in South Africa and 10 in the U.K.. If non-Bermudian inmates are excluded, the figure for Bermuda drops to 39 per 10,000, which puts the island in second place, below the U.S. A cross section of observers yesterday cited flaws in the education and criminal justice systems and a lack of commitment by law makers to endorse alternative sentencing and support families.

Group pushes for halt to new prisons
by Malcolm Howard JANUARY 13, 2000: Standing next to a stark, black-and-white chart showing the number of prisoners behind bars in Colorado, activist Christie Donner rattles off statistics that she says support her call for a moratorium on new prison construction in the state. 'Prison construction now takes up one-third of the state's capital construction budget,' Donner told a group of about three dozen residents gathered at downtown's St. Mary's Cathedral earlier this week. 'And it's been increasing.' Donner spoke as part of a statewide, grass-roots effort to raise support for Senate Bill 00-104. Introduced in the state Senate last week, the bill would forbid new prison construction in the state until 2003.
Inmate population quintupled
A few of the facts cited during Donner's two-hour talk: The prison moratorium bill, Donner argued, would give lawmakers a chance to stop and look at the real costs of increased incarceration. Among other things, the proposed bill would create a 17-member task force that would study the causes behind the state's massive prison boom and suggest possible countermeasures.
