Thank you.
The challenge of squeezing good public policy out of this data is more difficult than I thought. But let me ask a couple of questions about the data.
I'll go back to this reinvolvement chart, slide 16. While it shows that those who were assigned conditional sentences have a lower reinvolvement rate, it's not necessarily because they were given conditional sentences that they have a lower reinvolvement rate, is that correct? It may simply be because judges are making good decisions and are picking people who are less likely to have a reinvolvement. They simply are assigning conditional sentences to individuals who appear to be a good bet.
Would I be interpreting this chart correctly in that way?
