Criminal Justice System Assessment
Summary System Assessment
• Yavapai County population grew by 96% between 1990 and 2010. Projected population in the County is
forecast to grow by 37% over the next 20 years, or roughly a third of the rate it grew in the previous 20 years.
• Most of the measures that would typically impact on jail population (crime, arrest, and court filings) have
decreased over the past ten years.
• The vast majority of reported crime, arrests and court filings are for misdemeanor offenses, which includes
many drug abuse violations, a substantial percentage of DUI and liquor law offenses, and other relatively minor
offenses such as disorderly conduct, minor vandalism, traffic offenses, and minor property offenses.
• In Superior Court 42% of all new filings in FY14/15 were for drug offenses.
• Probation caseloads have decreased in the past five fiscal years. However, probation revocation in Yavapai
County increased by 42% in the last two years and is now substantially above the statewide average. In the
absence of alternative sanctions, increased revocations can lead to an increase in the jail population. In
addition, probation violation cases handled by the Public Defender increased by 68% between FY10/11 and
FY14/15.
• There are very few alternatives to incarceration in Yavapai County. There are no pre-charging or pre-trial
diversion programs, and the court supervised treatment programs currently in use occur at the “back end”
(post-adjudication) rather than at the “front end” (pre-adjudication). Current treatment courts include mental
health, substance abuse, DUI and Family Treatment Courts.

Criminal Justice System Assessment
Summary System Assessment (continued)
• A pilot program to screen jail inmates for pre-trial release was just implemented in Prescott. However, there is
no comprehensive pre-trial release screening conducted as part of the jail intake process.
• Nationally, diversion programs are being implemented at all stages of the criminal justice process to reduce
populations in custody and improve public safety by connecting defendants to treatment and other programs to
reduce criminal activity.
• Although the County contracted with the US Marshall’s Office for jail bed capacity between 2009 and 2014,
there has been only one USMO inmate admission in 2015. At the peak of contracting (2011) the USMO inmate
population averaged 110 inmates at the Camp Verde Jail.
• The average daily population of Yavapai County inmates (no USMO contracts) has consistently averaged 450
to 500 inmates per year since 2010. Average monthly admissions of Yavapai County inmates grew by 1.9%
per year between 2010 and 2015, while average length of stay grew by only .4% during the same time frame.
• The jail population profile shows that 80% of the population is male, 91% of the population is white, 57% are
between the ages of 24 to 44, 73% are in pretrial status, and 20% are in for violation of probation.
