Description
This issue of Research at a Glance is a quick fact sheet summarizing findings from Research Bulletin, A profile of Class 4 felony offenders sentenced to prison in Illinois, by ICJIA research analysts. This data is consistent with previous research indicating that Class 4 offenders have lengthy criminal backgrounds and relatively short stays in prison. Examination of these trends is useful to justice practitioners and policymakers as they determine whether incarceration is appropriate for this population of offenders.
