| Nearly five million offenders are under conditional correctional supervision on any given day. In addition, approximately 95% of prisoners will be returned to the community, at the rate of nearly three-quarter million per year. These offenders represent a unique population that may produce a significant number of problems for police. Monitoring Offenders on Conditional Release provides police officials with an overview of community supervision, discussing the characteristics of offenders, the varieties of monitoring strategies, and the identification of best practices in probation/parole-police partnerships. By providing police with this information, this guide can potentially aid in lowering law enforcement costs, increasing public safety, and encouraging reductions in recidivism among this growing population.By Lacey Schaefer, John E.
