This report examines trends in the number of individuals admitted to jail pretrial or formally supervised under pretrial supervision in the community. It is likely that, when the PFA is implemented, the number and/or characteristics of those admitted to jail pretrial or supervised in the community under pretrial supervision will change. Given the limited amount of statewide data in Illinois regarding pretrial practices, understanding such trends in the volume and characteristics of defendants in pretrial detention and under pretrial supervision in the community is a starting point to estimating and planning for the potential impact of the PFA.
