Revocations of parolees...Re: City and county jails. Revocations of parolees can occur for any level of violation including low-level misdemeanors at the various discretion of the parole officer, DA, judge, etc. So that 11% revoked figure would include many who committed only misdemeanor (county jail-level) offenses, dirty UAs, etc.<BR/><BR/>By contrast, the three-year number appears to refer only to those re-entering TDCJ's custody, so basically revocations and new felonies. So if someone a) did their full time and wasn't on parole, and b) committed a new misdemeanor, not a felony, they wouldn't be included in that number.Gritsforbreakfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152152869466958902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-1146228033428161092006-04-28T07:40:00.000-05:002006-04-28T07:40:00.000-05:00I wonder if this includes the local city and count...I wonder if this includes the local city and county jails in it's numbers?
