1 THE IMPACT OF AB 109 ON LAPD

2 Overview AB 109 impact on the LAPD Statistical information AB 109 impact on LAPD jail facilities Securing the safety of the LAPD residents

3 Background US Supreme Court mandate to reduce the state’s prison population by 32,000 inmates due to overcrowding and poor health care within California’s prison system October 2011 Public Safety Realignment Act - AB 109 enacted AB 109 altered the criminal justice system by changing felony sentencing, shifting housing for low-level offenders from state prison to county jails, and transferring supervision of designated parolees from California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to local county agencies AB 109 mandates that individuals newly convicted of felonious non-serious, non-violent or non-sex offenses (N3) serve their sentence in a county jail Responsibility of supervising these individuals shifted from State Parole to Probation Department and local Law Enforcement Agencies

4 What steps has LAPD taken to address AB 109? Created a Parolee-at-Large Unit, Gangs & Narcotics Division - Provides oversight on AB 109 information - Locates and arrests absconders Created a Parole Compliance Unit in each geographical division - Conducts address verifications - Tracks and monitors PSP’s in their respective areas - Conducts probation compliance checks Partnership with California Department of Probation - Five Deputy Probation Officers assigned to LAPD Partnership with California State Parole - Parole Agent assigned to LAPD Liaison with Residential Treatment Facilities to avoid any violations of HIPPA laws and facilitate cooperation

5 What impact has AB 109 had on LAPD resources? 165 officers reassigned to Parole Compliance Units (PCU) Additional administrative staff has been added 18 million dollars in estimated cost, fiscal year 2013/2014, on officers’ salaries and equipment Created systems to monitor PSP’s and track PCU activities within their geographic areas

6 Parole Compliance Units activities recap between Jan 2012 – August 2013 Post Released Supervised Persons (PSP) arrest: 7,663 Flash Incarceration Arrest: 1,510 PSP Warrant Arrest: 394 PSP Open-Charge Arrest: 746 PSP arrested for Murder: 9 PSP arrested for Attempt Murder: 8 Non-PSP Arrest: 3,106 Compliance Checks: - Attempted (nobody home) = 9,604 - Completed (PSP home) = 9,030

8 AB 109 Legislative Issues Current law only considers the individual’s most recent felony conviction to determine qualification as a N3 crime Under AB 109, the individual’s criminal record is not considered when determining eligibility for release Under AB 109, prior sex-offences does not disqualify an individual from being released AB 109 Impact on LA City Jails At this point, there has been no adverse impact on daily operations within LAPD jail facilities

9 Securing the safety of residents Note: Each Parole Compliance Unit has a minimum staff of one supervisor and four officers; responsibilities include: Work with Probation to monitor the PSP population in their Area Information gathering and sharing within Law Enforcement Identify PSP’s, Parolees and Probationers in their area, most at risk of committing new crimes Conduct mandated Compliance Checks and Address Verifications Locate and arrest PSP’s and Parolees with active warrants

10 Future Projections PSP population will decrease as the State prison population reaches mandated levels N3 population is expected to increase - There is currently no mandated supervision for N3 offenders, who have completed their sentences and are released from County Jail Funding is being sought to develop a statewide database to allow sharing of PSP information and enhance the monitoring of PSP’s on a statewide basis
