The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) has released the November 2024 statistical numbers. It appears violence against staff by inmates has decreased in the month of November with 4 attempted homicides of officers and only 240 incidents of inmates battering staff. We wish everyone to go home safe and hope a downwards trend of inmate violence against staff continues.
Below is a chart depicting the reported violence by CDCR inmates against staff as a percentage of inmate population. The chart starts with May 2023 as this is the month most people consider for COVID-19 to no longer be a primary factor in prison politics.
