Why is the jail overcrowded?

Failure to promptly resolve criminal cases.

Not enough inmates released during the pretrial portion of their criminal cases.

Too many inmates booked for technical probation violations, such as failure to pay fines, are jailed until the matter is resolved.

Too many inmates booked for failure to appear in court are jailed until the case is closed.
