Great, thank you.

Before we move to Mr. Comartin, there seems to be a disconnect in the statistics the two witnesses gave us. You said 10% reoffend. But I think Mr. Head said 90% have previous records. I can't see how only 10% of those who have been paroled reoffend, when you on the other hand are saying 90% of the inmates who are there have previous records. How do you reconcile those two statistics?
