Prisoner Reentry and Crime in America is intended to shed light on
a question that fuels the public's concern about the number of
returning prisoners. What are the public safety consequences of the
fourfold increase in the number of individuals entering and leaving
the nation's prisons each year? Many have speculated about the
nexus between prisoner reentry and public safety. Journalistic
accounts of the reentry phenomenon have painted a picture of a
tidal wave of hardened criminals coming back home to resume their
destructive lifestyles. Law enforcement officials have attributed
increases in violence in their communities to the influx of
returning prisoners. Politicians have recommended policies that
keep former prisoners out of high crime neighborhoods in the belief
that crime would be reduced. The chapters in this book address
these issues and suggest policies that will keep released prisoners
from committing new crimes.
