Foreword

Dear Policymaker: It is with great pride that the Kentucky Justice and Public Safety Cabinet releases the 2010 edition of the Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics in the Commonwealth. As the second largest agency in state government, the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet continuously works to improve public safety and the quality of life for the citizens of Kentucky. By providing comprehensive information from all components of the criminal justice system, the Sourcebook continues to encourage data-driven decision making to aid effective criminal justice policy development in the 21st century. This report reflects a unique partnership among criminal justice agencies whose collaborative efforts permit the presentation of a broad overview of the system. As the data infrastructure in Kentucky’s criminal justice system continues to improve, we believe the Sourcebook will become an even more effective tool for meeting critical planning needs and addressing statewide criminal justice policy issues. In addition to valuable information on crime, arrest, prosecution, correction, and juvenile justice system trends, the ninth edition of the Sourcebook highlights selected crime categories that are currently of interest in the criminal justice system today. These special topics include drug related offenses with a particular focus on methamphetamine and prescription drugs, driving under the influence (DUI) offenses, sex offenses, and domestic violence. Shared information across agencies presented here allows for a greater understanding of how these crimes are affecting the state. The following report is organized in a manner that follows traditional movement across the system, from arrest to prosecution to corrections, and should thus be viewed as a systemic integration of data-sharing and analyses. I encourage you to use this report as a convenient and accessible resource for criminal justice data. Please contact the Cabinet if you have any questions or need further information. It is my goal, and that of the Cabinet, for the 2010 Sourcebook to serve as a vital resource for policymakers, state officials, and the citizens of Kentucky. On behalf of the Kentucky Justice and Public Safety Cabinet, I would like to express appreciation to the criminal justice agency personnel and faculty who contributed time and energy to enable the publication of the 2010 edition of the Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics in the Commonwealth. J. Michael Brown, Secretary Kentucky Justice and Public Safety Cabinet

Limitations of Current Data and Information Systems

As you review the information contained in the Sourcebook, it is important to keep in mind that data have been drawn from a number of state level criminal justice data collection systems in an attempt to provide a snapshot of crime trends in the Commonwealth. A detailed description of the existing systems can be found in Appendix A. Until these systems are fully integrated into a statewide Unified Criminal Justice Information System, there will remain limitations in the data available for analysis. These and other limitations are delineated below. • As a result of the variation across agencies, it is currently not possible to publish a fully

integrated criminal justice system report or to perform systemic trend analyses. This report is intended to provide individual snapshots of the key components of the justice system (law enforcement, courts, corrections, prosecution, and defense), and to draw general conclusions regarding system trends where possible.

• Data collection systems of criminal justice agencies were established independently for in-house

data management purposes and not for planning or policy evaluation. • There are currently no standardized formats for defining data elements or counting criminal

justice events. Agencies vary according to what is being counted (e.g., charges, cases, or individuals).

• While efforts are ongoing to unify the codes used to define each offense presented in the

Sourcebook, differences still exist among agencies. For example, the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts define robbery offenses using a different set of offense codes than the Kentucky Department of Corrections. Therefore, readers are cautioned not to compare data directly across agencies. This report is expected to improve over time as reporting practices become more consistent. A list of the offense codes used to derive each table or figure can be provided upon request.

• Starting in 2005, in an attempt to further unify the data, all data were requested to be reported

on a calendar year basis, with the exception of fiscal data. This particular change in the reporting parameters will affect the user’s ability to compare data across previous editions of the Sourcebook.

• Each year, adaptations are made to the Sourcebook in an effort to improve the quality of the

information provided. The methods of reporting and the process of compiling this annual report are constantly evolving with the end goal to put forth the most accurate data available. As such, the user’s ability to compare data published in the 2010 edition of the Sourcebook with previously published editions will be affected.

• Calculations, such as percent change, rate per population, etc. were prepared by the Kentucky

Statistical Analysis Center, not the agency providing the original data unless otherwise noted. • Several agencies have provided updated data for years prior to 2010. As a result, the data in the

2010 Sourcebook may be different from that which is found in earlier editions of the Sourcebook. Where possible, the updated data has been included in order to provide the most accurate data available. Data updates may occur because of changes in the information systems, changes to the


12

criminal code, and/or retroactive data updates. If such a change has occurred, where possible, the data has been recalculated for all years presented in the table or figure.

• Kentucky currently uses the FBI’s Summary Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR) to collect

data. The UCR is a nationwide, cooperative statistical effort of more than 18,000 city, county, college and university, state, tribal and federal agencies voluntarily reporting data on crimes. These agencies represent 97.4% of the nation’s total population. The UCR includes information on Part I offenses which include the violent crimes of murder and non-negligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault and the property crimes of burglary, larceny-theft, auto theft, and arson.

• In an effort to improve the quality of the Kentucky State Police’s annual Crime in Kentucky

reports, several adaptations were made in 1998 to data reporting that have continued through 2010. These changes are in accordance with UCR guidelines and will affect the user’s ability to compare data published in the 1998 through 2010 reports with previously published data.

• The following disclaimer has been issued by the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts and

applies to all data within the Sourcebook that is attributed to that agency: “Information received from COURTNET is subject to change(s), reprogramming, modification(s) of format and availability at the direction of the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC), and may not at any particular moment reflect the true status of court cases due to ordinary limitation(s), delay(s) or error(s) in the system’s operation. The AOC disclaims any warranties as to the validity of the information obtained from COURTNET. The recipient is solely responsible for verifying information received from COURTNET through the cross-referencing of official court records. The AOC shall not be liable to the recipient, or to any third party using the system or information obtained therefrom, for any damages whatsoever arising out of the use of COURTNET.” Detailed limitations pertaining to Administrative Office of the Courts data is provided in Appendix D.

• The U.S. Census Bureau collects population and demographic data on a ten year cycle. In the

years between the decennial census, population estimates are created based on continuously collected data. As a result information which makes use of U.S. Census Bureau data for the intervening years utilizes the estimated population numbers and is noted as such.

Section I: Kentucky’s Demographic Profile Having a firm grasp on the demographic trends and realities facing Kentucky provides a basis for crafting effective policies, especially when changes represent a potentially significant impact on the day-to-day operations of the criminal justice system. The first section of the 2010 Edition of the Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics in the Commonwealth provides necessary background information for the reader regarding the demographic profile of Kentucky. Information provided within this section stems from the United States Census Bureau’s 2010 Census, the Small Area Population Estimates Division, and the American Community Survey (ACS), which provides population, demographic, and housing unit estimates for communities throughout the nation. ACS data, which is collected every year, provides up to date information about the population at the local community level and serves as a critical element of the decennial census program. About three million housing units from across the nation participate in the ACS annually, and provide critical demographic information about the population including age, race, ethnicity, income, veteran status, housing location and cost, and other economic and social indicators which help to provide an understanding of the population’s characteristics. Likewise, since ACS data is collected annually, this mechanism allows conclusions and estimates to be provided for geographic locations with populations of less than 20,000 individuals. The findings from the U.S. Census 2010 ACS are provided below:

Kentucky’s total population was nearly 4.34 million- About 2.2 million (50.8%) were females, and the median age was 38.1 years. About 23.5% of the population was under age 18, and about 13.3% were over age 65.

For people reporting only one race about 88.8%, or more than 3.8 million were white, 7.8%, or

337,520 were African American, 1.2%, or 51,431 were Asian/Pacific Islander, and less than 0.25%, or 10,120, were American Indian/Alaska Native. More than 55,550 (1.3%) reported their race as “Other” and more than 75,200 identified two or more races (about 1.7%).

There were over 1.927 million households in Kentucky, with an average size of 2.45 people per

house.

More than 4.178 million Kentucky residents (96.3%) were born in the United States, and of these, over 3.05 million (70.4%) were native born Kentuckians. Approximately 92,500 (2.1%) of Kentucky’s 4.34 million residents are not Naturalized U.S. Citizens.

Among those people who were at least 5 years of age, approximately 4.07 million, nearly 3.87

million, or (95.2%) spoke only English within their homes. Of those 195,027 who spoke a language other than English, 51.8% or 100,988 spoke Spanish.

Of those more than 2.9 million Kentucky residents aged 25 or more, almost 82% of these have

at least a high school diploma and approximately 20.5% have a Bachelor’s Degree or higher.

Of the more than 3.43 million Kentucky residents aged 16 years or older, 2.07 million (60.3%) were in the workplace. The leading industries in Kentucky are Educational and Health Care Services and Social Assistance (24.5%), Manufacturing (13.2%), and Retail Trade (12.3%).

The most common occupations among Kentucky workers were Management, Business, Science,

and Arts Occupations (32.3%), Sales and Office Occupations (24.4%), Service Occupations (16.8%), and Production, Transportation, and Material Moving Occupations (16.2%). 78.6% of


14

the Kentucky workforce is employed for private wages, 15.5% are Government Workers, and 5.8% are Self-Employed. The remaining 0.1% are Unpaid Family Workers.

Within the past 12 months, 14.5% of all Kentucky Families have had incomes which were below

the Federal Poverty Level. 22.8% of those families with children under age 18 met this guideline, as did 25.6% of those with children under age 5. 38.1% of families with a Single Female Head of Household had incomes below the Federal Poverty Level, as have 11.2% of individuals 65 years or older. In households made up of unrelated individuals 15 years or age or older, 32.3% have had incomes below Federal Poverty Guidelines during this time frame.

Kentucky had almost 1.93 million housing units, and 87.3% were occupied. 68.6% of the more

than 1.68 million occupied units were owner-occupied, with the remaining 528,056 (31.4%) being occupied by renters. The mean number of residents in owner occupied units was 2.56 persons, and in rental units this number was 2.40 persons. More than 7.5% of those occupied units did not have access to private automobiles as a means of transportation, 0.7% lacked complete plumbing facilities, 0.9% lacked complete kitchen facilities, and 3.1% lack any type of telephone services.

Section II: Victim Services

Kentucky has established many successful programs to provide services and aid to victims of crime, an important element of the criminal justice system. Data selected for this section was provided by V.I.N.E., the Crime Victims Compensation Board, the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, the Office of the Attorney General, Kentucky Association of Sexual Assault Programs, and Kentucky Domestic Violence Association.


28

V.I.N.E.

The Office of Victim Services is the arm of the Kentucky Department of Corrections that provides victims with an automatic notification system to alert them about a change in the custody status of their offender. The system is known as Victim Information and Notification Everyday (V.I.N.E.). The nation’s first automated victim notification system was created in Jefferson County, Kentucky, in December, 1994. Like many progressive acts, a tragedy was the impetus for the establishment of the V.I.N.E. system. In 1993, Mary Byron was murdered by her estranged boyfriend after he was released from the Jefferson County Jail. Byron was not notified of his release. Byron’s parents, Pat and John Byron, led a crusade to ensure that their daughter’s death would not be in vain. As a result of their efforts, software engineers developed the V.I.N.E. system and implemented it at the Jefferson County Jail. In 1996, Kentucky again led the way, becoming the first state in the nation to provide victim notification on a statewide basis. Today more than 2,100 communities have implemented the V.I.N.E. system. More than two-thirds of the states have established statewide notification through V.I.N.E. The federal government also offers a victim notification service and funds supportive grants (e.g. Statewide Automated Victim Information and Notification (SAVIN)). Nationally, V.I.N.E. generates approximately 700,000 notification calls each month. The V.I.N.E. system receives booking and release data from all county jails and Kentucky Department of Corrections institutions. Victims can obtain information about an offender’s location, custody status, sentence expiration date, and scheduled parole hearing date. The victim can also register to be notified of changes in an offender’s custody status. Information can be obtained by calling a toll free number, by calling the Office of Victim Services, via e-mail, or via the Internet through VINELink. The service is available 24 hours a day. Whenever possible, the system provides notification of an offender’s release 72 hours prior to the release. In order to ensure that victims receive notification in a timely manner, V.I.N.E. will call the registered telephone number every 30 minutes during a 24 hour time period of until the call is acknowledged by the registered person. The following information was obtained from the Kentucky Department of Corrections’ Office of Victim Services:

Of the 1,413,600 searches for offenders through the V.I.N.E. program in 2010, 5.8% were conducted via VINEwatch, 32.4% were conducted via telephone, and 61.8% were conducted via VINELink.

In 2010, V.I.N.E. reported a total of 380,417 victim information and registration calls into the call center and

682,982 notification calls issued by the call center.

There were 45,073 new V.I.N.E. registrations in 2010, down from 45,447 in 2009, and up from 32,070 in 2008.

Crime Victim’s Compensation Board

The Crime Victims Compensation Board, assisting more than 1,000 victims of violent crime per year, was enacted in 1974 and established by the Kentucky General Assembly in 1976, the 14th state to do so. The office opened in 1978 with the purpose of compensating victims for whom violent crime has resulted in financial hardship due to physical or psychological injury or death. In situations where there is no other source of payment, the board determines claimant eligibility and award amounts for qualifying expenses incurred as a result of violent crime, including medical, funeral, mental health counseling, dental, and corrective lens expenses resulting from the crime, as well as lost wages or loss of support for someone dependent on the victim. When qualifying claimants are awarded, payments are made directly to service providers or can be reimbursements to the claimant. State law caps the awards at $25,000 for each claim. The CVCB also administers a program which pays for sexual assault forensic/medical exams (SAEs) for both adults and children. These claims are applied for and paid directly to the service providers. CVCB Funds are provided through federal grants, offender-paid court fees, donations, and a $200,000 General Fund allotment for SAE’s. The governor-appointed, five-member board operates under Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) 346 and 216B, and Kentucky Administrative Regulations (KAR) Title 107. Each board member’s term is four years. The Board, which must include a victim, is intended to include representation from throughout the state. The following information was received from the Crime Victim’s Compensation Board:

The CVCB granted awards on 1,213 claims in fiscal year 2010, resulting in almost $1.9 million being distributed

to victims of violent crime. 251 claims were for compensation, and 1,013 were for sexual assault forensic/medical exams.

Section III: Reported Crime Trends

Part One offense data, as reported by the Kentucky State Police and the Federal Bureau of Investigations Uniform Crime Reporting Program, are provided in the following section. Although law enforcement agencies collect and maintain data on both arrests and offenses reported to the police, researchers generally agree that reported offenses provide a better measure of crime since these reports usually occur closer in time to the actual incidents. While arrests also provide a measure of law enforcement activity, arrests may not be made in all cases and arrests may also reflect specialized enforcement efforts rather than an actual increase in the incidence of crime. In reviewing data on the crime trends, it is important to note the type of data being presented along with the inherent limitations of that data.

• In 2010, the FBI’s Part One Offense rate per 100,000 was 2,794 in Kentucky, as compared to 3,346 in the United States.

• Between 2009 and 2010, the Kentucky State Police calculated that the Part One Offense rate rose 0.67% in

Kentucky.

• Between 2009 and 2010, the offense rate rose for larceny-theft, murder, robbery, burglary, and auto theft. During that same time the offense rate declined for rape, aggravated assault, and arson.

• Between 2007 and 2010, the most significant increase in the Part One offense rate was for rape offenses, which

rose 9.81% during this period.

• Between 2007 and 2010, the most significant decrease in the Part One offense rate was for auto theft, which fell 26.61% during those 4 years.

• Of cities with a population greater than 10,000 people, Newport, Somerset, Ashland, Covington, and Richmond

had the highest rates of Part One offenses. Madisonville, Fort Thomas, Independence, Shelbyville, and Jeffersontown had the lowest Part One offense rates.

Section IV: Arrest Trends

This section presents information on arrest trends in the Commonwealth as reported by the Kentucky State Police. It is important to note that KSP calculates arrest data based on the counts associated with an arrest. For example, if an individual is arrested for burglary and there are three counts, KSP will indicate three arrests for that one incident.

• The adult arrest rate for all Part One offenses increased 36.46% between 2009 and 2010, and 15.27% during the four year period from 2007-2010.

• Between 2009 and 2010, the adult arrest rate for murder, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, rape, robbery,

and burglary increased while the arrest rate for aggravated assault and arson decreased.

• In 2010, 78.9% of arrestees were white, 20.8% were African-American, less than 0.2% were Asian/Pacific Islander, and less than 0.1% were American Indian.

• In 2010, 34.7% of arrestees were women. The offense with the largest percentage of women arrested was

larceny-theft (61.6%).

Court Designated Worker Program

In 1986, the Kentucky General Assembly enacted legislation to provide a statewide Court Designated Worker (CDW) program under the direction of the Department of Juvenile Services of the Administrative Office of the Courts, the administrative arm of the Kentucky Court of Justice. The mission of the CDW program is to reduce delinquency among Kentucky’s youth through a collaboration of statewide pre-court services and programs that promote education and accountability. CDWs process juvenile complaints against individuals under the age of 18. The complaints, known as public offenses, are the same as adult crimes. Status offenses are non-criminal forms of juvenile behavior, such as running away from home, skipping class, tobacco offenses, or exhibiting beyond-control behaviors at home or school. Each of Kentucky’s 120 counties has access to the services of a CDW who is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A set of uniform criteria determine which juvenile complaints must be forwarded to formal court and which are eligible for informal processing through the CDW program. More serious offenses and repeat offenders are referred to formal court. Juveniles involved in minor offenses are generally eligible for informal processing and enter diversion agreements. A diversion agreement is a voluntary contract between the CDW and the juvenile to resolve a complaint. The data included in this section were provided by the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts. Limitations of this data are provided in Appendix D.

Methamphetamine Related Offenses

In 2005, Kentucky adopted legislation that restricts the sale of products containing pseudoephedrine (PSE) and ephedrine, ingredients used to manufacture methamphetamine. In 2007, Kentucky became the second state to implement a real-time statewide electronic monitoring system capable of blocking the sale of PSE products to individuals in violation of purchasing more than 9 grams in 30 days (KRS 218A.1446). The program, MethCheck, provides 24/7 access to law enforcement officers conducting investigations on individuals suspected of violations of PSE restrictions. In 2009, the system blocked 22,844 attempts to violate PSE restrictions resulting in over 56,848 grams of PSE kept out of the hands of potential methamphetamine cooks. MethCheck is a partnership between the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) Professional Standards Branch, the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, and the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy. To illustrate the incidence of methamphetamine manufacturing, trafficking, and abuse in the Commonwealth, this section presents data from the Kentucky State Police, the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts, and the Kentucky Department of Corrections.

• Kentucky State Police reported a total of 4,389 methamphetamine related offenses in 2010, up from 2,577 in

2009. This is the highest number of offenses in the past five years and was primarily attributed to an increase in manufacturing offenses. This was an increase of 70.3% since 2009.

• During 2010, 1,078 law enforcement officers responded to clandestine methamphetamine lab incidents. This is

a 45.5% increase from the 741 incidents responded to in 2009.

• In 2010, there were 2,834 methamphetamine related cases in Circuit Court, 3,288 cases in District Court, and 20 cases in Juvenile Court.

• The total number of methamphetamine related charges disposed in Circuit Court rose from 2,104 in 2009 to

2,834 in 2010. In District Court, the number of charges rose from 3,919 in 2009 to 4,737 in 2010, an increase of 20.9%.

• In 2010, the average sentence imposed for methamphetamine related offenses was 11 years.

• The Kentucky Department of Corrections reported 636 new commitments for methamphetamine offenses in

2010, up from 515 in 2009.

Prescription Drug Related Offenses Misuse, abuse, and illegal sale of prescription drugs represent a significant threat to public health and safety in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Illegal prescription drug activity has reached epidemic proportions, with more and more incidents of “doctor shopping” being uncovered and the street values of “legal drugs” reaching all-time highs. The Kentucky All Schedule Prescription Electronic Reporting (KASPER) system is Kentucky’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP). PDMP’s vary in their characteristics, but they all have a common goal of reducing prescription drug abuse and diversion. KASPER is one of the most comprehensive PDMP’s in the country. The system catalogs schedule II-V controlled substance prescriptions dispensed within the state(Hydrocodone, Oxycodone, Methadone, Alprazolam, Tramadol, Buprenorphrine, and Diazepam), and provides a tool for practitioners, pharmacists, law enforcement, and regulatory agencies to improve patient safety and fight the abuse and diversion of controlled substance prescription medications. KASPER is housed in the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Office of the Inspector General, with the maintenance and enhancements to the system provided by the Cabinet’s Office of Administrative and Technology Services. Kentucky statutes require dispensers of controlled substances to report the prescriptions dispensed once every seven days. The data are then available to authorized users of the system, who may be prescribers for medical treatment of a patient, dispensers for pharmaceutical treatment of a patient, law enforcement officers for an active drug related investigation, licensing boards for a licensee, the Kentucky Medicaid program for a Medicaid member or provider, a grand jury (by subpoena), or a judge or probation or parole office administering a drug diversion or probation program. A KASPER report shows the controlled substance prescriptions a patient received for a specified time period, as well as the practitioner who prescribed them and the dispenser who dispensed them. Kentucky Revised Statute 218A.240 provides that the Cabinet shall use the data for investigations, research, statistical analysis and educational purposes, and shall proactively identify trends in controlled substance usage and other potential problem areas. This section includes data on prescription drug activity in the Commonwealth as collected by the Kentucky State Police, Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts, Kentucky Department of Corrections, Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice, and KASPER.

• In 2010, there were 1,378 prescription drug related cases in Circuit Court, 5,410 in District Court, and 141 cases in Juvenile Court.

• There were 65 new prescription drug related commitments to the Department of Corrections in 2010. The

average prison sentence for prescription drug related offenses in 2010 was 7 years.

• In 2010, KASPER records demonstrate that Kentucky’s population received 145 doses per capita of controlled substance prescriptions.

Section XII: Key Criminal Justice Cost Information

While monitoring changes in crime trends, it is also important to track the range of costs associated with incarceration, community supervision, and criminal justice programs for adults and juveniles. This section includes data from the Kentucky Department of Corrections, Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice, and the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet’s Grants Management Branch.

• In FY 2010, Kentucky’s criminal justice agencies enacted budgets totaling $909,837,220.00.

• Approximately 33% of the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet’s annual budget goes towards the operation of adult correctional institutions, 20.4% funds Kentucky State Police activities, and 16.9% funds community services and local facilities.

• Kentucky’s criminal justice budget includes over $33 million in grant funding administered by the Cabinet’s

agencies including, among others, Justice Assistance Grants, Violence against Women Act funding, Victims of Crime Act funds, and Title II and Title V funds from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.

Appendix C: Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts Data Limitations The Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts provided the Kentucky Statistical Analysis Center with the following detailed information on the limitations of the data presented in the 2010 Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics. Data obtained from the KYCourts/CourtNet database presented in Sections VI, VII, XI is subject to the following limitations: The data obtained from KYCourts/CourtNet database is aggregate data that can be filtered based upon multiple features. These features include the frequency of cases filed, cases disposed, cases convicted, and some sentencing information. Frequencies can be obtained by referring to a case filing date, case disposition, charge filing date, or charge disposition date. The data can be broken down as a statewide figure or on a county by county basis. Some cases may have multiple charges, which would result in multiple dispositions as dispositions are by charge and not by case; this would also affect the filing and disposition dates. Charge counts may include original and amended charges; this is where the distinct count is important as it will only allow the case to be counted once despite multiple charges or amendments to charges. Additionally, some individuals may have multiple cases; therefore, distinct case counts cannot be inferred as a distinct count of individuals. When examining case disposition data all disposition types will be included. However, when examining conviction data only those cases that include a disposition type that is indicative of guilt will be included. A case may consist of one or more charges; however, for a case to be considered a conviction, only one charge within the case must be guilty. Dispositions that are indicative of guilt include: guilty, guilty – multiple counts, guilty – sealed sentence, and/or pre-payable citation – paid. There are also three disposition types that are unique to juvenile cases which are also considered a conviction; those are Other, Cabinet of Human Resources (CHR), and Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ). Dispositions in a case are based upon individual charges, since some cases may have multiple charges there can be multiple dispositions. An example would be to have a case with three charges, for which one charge was given a disposition of commitment of juvenile to DJJ (Department of Juvenile Justice), while the other two charges were handled via an informal judgment. Therefore, the number of dispositions will be greater than the number of cases. Some dispositions, such as amended, will cause the case to appear in multiple categories of disposition, jurisdiction, and/or charge. In instances where a case is amended up or indicted from District Court to Circuit Court the case number will change. Therefore, the case would be counted twice, once under each court type. Nevertheless, within each court type, a distinct count of cases is provided that will count the case only once per disposition type, allowing for elimination of duplication. Sentence information is much like dispositions; sentences are based upon the charge not the case. Since a case may contain multiple charges, and multiple dispositions, there may also be multiple sentences. These sentences may run consecutively to each other or they may run concurrent to each other. The length of an individual’s sentence is broken down into months; due to each charge having its own sentence this data is presented as a cumulative figure and does not discern between those sentences that are consecutive versus concurrent. The sentence information provided is merely cumulative sentenced time; additionally, those sentencing conditions of “probated/conditionally discharged/suspended” are also presented as cumulative time. There is a check box on the sentence screen to denote whether the time is concurrent and/or consecutive to other charges/cases, however, AOC does not capture which charges/case that it is concurrent and/or consecutive to. For juvenile cases that are given diversion; the original disposition would be diversion; however, if the juvenile fails to complete the diversion a new disposition is entered of guilty. The original disposition should be removed from the sentence screen and the new disposition entered; however, there may be some cases in which this is not done. Similar scenarios can occur in cases against adults as well. When an individual is convicted and given a sentence of prison but then given a diversion program and the sentence probated in lieu of actually having to serve time, two separate scenarios can occur. If the diversion is successfully completed the case is no longer counted in the frequency of convictions; however, the sentence of prison is never removed from the KYCourts/CourtNet database and is, therefore, still counted in the prison frequency. When this happens, the cases with a sentence of prison can outnumber the cases


315

convicted and cause the prison disposition rate to be reflected as over 100 percent. If the diversion is not completed, the disposition in the case is amended to reflect a disposition of guilty and the sentencing information remains unchanged. Additionally, some jail and prison terms may have some or all of the term suspended. In that event a defendant is granted shock probation that is then tracked in the KYCourts/CourtNet data base through the use of additional UOR codes. In the event that a defendant violates the terms of their probation, a new sentence is entered that is then tied to the new offense of probation violation. A small percentage of offenders each year are ordered by the court to attend Alcohol & Drug Education (ADE) or other types of treatment, with this frequency continuing to decline with the passing of each calendar year. Court of Appeals data is obtained from the appellate Court and is not housed at the Administrative Office of the Courts. Appeals Court data is current as of March 31, 2012. Data obtained from the PRIM (Pretrial Release Information Management) System presented in Section V of the Sourcebook is subject to the following limitations: The data contained herein only applies to pretrial defendants that have not been sentenced and does not include those that are serving a jail sentence or awaiting transport from the Kentucky Department of Corrections (DOC). Therefore, when comparing the frequency of cases that are attended by pretrial officers to the frequency of cases filed in the KYCourts/Courtnet database, the frequency of cases in pretrial will be smaller in proportion. Some individuals who go to jail are released prior to being seen by a pretrial officer; the reasons for their release can be widely varied. There are four classifications of felony (A, B, C, & D) and two classifications of misdemeanor (A & B); whereas criminal violations and traffic violations do not have a classification breakdown and are listed only as an X under either ‘other’ or ‘violation’. Both felony and misdemeanor classifications have an ‘other’ category. A few outliers exist in both the felony and misdemeanor offenses, with a few individuals classification being listed as X. This can occur in felony cases for a few reasons; the first is if the individual is a persistent felony offender (PFO), if an obsolete offense code was utilized, if it was a probation violation, or a contempt of court charge. In the case of a PFO or a probation violation these are normally classified as class C felony; whether it appears in the database as a class C or a class X is dependent upon either how the pretrial officer entered it or how the clerk entered the case into the KYCourts database. For misdemeanors that are classified as an X those are usually due to the offense being a local ordinance, a contempt of court charge, or a probation violation. In the event that it is a probation violation it should actually be listed as a class A misdemeanor and has simply been incorrectly coded. Data is limited to only those counties that have a jail; some neighboring counties utilize the same jail facility in one central location such as Boyle and Mercer Counties. Mercer County does not have its own jail therefore those who offend in Mercer County are taken to the Boyle County Detention Center. Other counties around the state work in similar fashion. Therefore, for pretrial purposes individuals are listed based upon the holding county and not the county in which they were charged. Pretrial officers work to determine a defendant’s risk level. These levels are low, moderate, or high, and are determined using a validated objective risk assessment that measures both flight and anticipated criminal conduct. There are some cases in which the individual was ineligible or not verified; this is determined on a case by case basis. For calendar year 2010 pretrial services determined a public safety rate of 90%. This was determined by defendants who did not get arrested or cited for a new criminal offense while on pretrial release. Data obtained from the Court Designated Worker Case Management System (CDWCMS) presented in Section X is subject to the following limitations: The CDWCMS system was developed to ensure the court designated worker’s (CDW) job was conducted more efficiently by allowing them to track and monitor juvenile complaints and diversion agreements. Data obtained from the CDWCMS system is broken down to list the number of charges, the number of referrals, and a distinct count of juveniles. An individual can have multiple charges within one referral plus an individual can also have multiple referrals. It is important to understand that some of the cases that were filed or closed during one calendar year (CY) may have


316

originated during the previous calendar year; and, there are also some cases that have been filed during the present calendar year that may not be closed until sometime during the following calendar year. Due to the nature of many of the cases there are limitations to the data presented here as there is no clear way to know where potential overlap may occur which may cause inflation to the frequencies. Distinct Counts of referrals and juveniles are provided to counter any potential inflation of the frequencies. All juvenile complaints, including status offenses, are referred to the local Court Designated Workers’ (CDW) office. In general a referral is closed by the CDW as four categories: formal court, informal diversions, dismissals, and other. Within the formal court category there are four subfields: county attorney requested, judge requested, CDW referred (complaint was ineligible for diversion), and court generated charges. The court generated charges are a charge before the court that has not been processed via the CDW office, which typically means that the charge is contempt of court or a probation violation. Under informal diversions there is successful and unsuccessful; similarly dismissals also contain only two subfields: county attorney requested and no probable cause. Those classified as child requested formal and child failed to appear at preliminary interview will typically make their way into a formal court procedure.
