| | People who viewed "United States prison population" also viewed: | | | Today's NYT reports a 2.6% increase for 2002: "At the end of 2002, there were 2,166,260 Americans in local jails, state and federal prisons and juvenile detention facilities, the report found." Perhaps local jails and juvenile facilities are not counted in the 1.3 million number. | | | I think they should be counted, because prison is prison -- does it really matter what you call it? |

| | More California Youth Authority employees at N.A. Chaderjian Youth Correctional Facility are out on stress leave than at any of the other juvenile prisons in the state, according to records. | | | CYA spokeswoman Nancy Lungren said the number of employees out on stress leave did not seem out of the ordinary, considering the high-risk nature of working in the state's juvenile prison system. | | | In contrast, less than 1 percent of workers in the general population in the United States fail to show up at their jobs because of stress, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. |
