Reduction in jail suicides welcome, but not yet a 'trend'

The MSM should be careful labeling the 2016 reduction in Texas jail suicides a "trend," as this Dallas News editorial did. One year's data does not a "trend" make. I realize that, in 21st century internet culture, everyone wants answers now. But when it comes to criminal-justice data, there's still a lag before enough data exists over a long enough period to distinguish "trends" from noise.
