Cutting Correctly: New Prison Policies for Times of Fiscal Crisis
Cutting Correctly looks at the ballooning state expenditures and shrinking revenues that states face and call into question their prison spending. The authors take a detailed look at five policy areas, each designed to save states money in these times of fiscal belt-tightening:
• Returning discretion to judges and reducing nonviolent prioner populations.
• Drug policy reform.
• Comprehensive sentencing reform.
• Parole reform.
• Policy reforms under consideration around the country.
