Would We Be Safer if Fewer Were Jailed? (Àü¹® Ŭ¸¯)
Jails in New York and throughout the country dealing with overcrowding and brutality, are often filled with inmates who might not need to even be incarcerated. Some of them are awaiting trial for nonviolent offenses, others have mental health needs. Can the use of jails be reformed to reduce the number of inmates without increasing society¡¯s risks?

Jail is now for those who can't afford bail. Programs can provide services to end unnecessary jail stays
and strengthen public safety.

Divert those with mental health problems from jail, where their conditions are worsened by abuse,
medical neglect and solitary confinement.

Incarceration can lead to more incarceration. Courts must use actuarial risk assessments to determine
who should be released pretrial.

Jails have become the easy solution for the problems of addiction, poverty, mental illness, rather than
instruments of justice.
