Yet another great set of new Quick Facts publications from US Sentencing Commission
I am always eager to praise the US Sentencing Commission for continuing to produce a steady stream of its insightful little data documents in its terrific series of reader-friendly "Quick Facts" publications (which are designed to "give readers basic facts about a single area of federal crime in an easy-to-read, two-page format"). In this post four week ago, I noted a whole bunch of new Quick Facts released in July 2019. I now see the USSC has this month released a bunch more Quick Facts on a lot of major federal sentencing topics based on the USSC's recently released 2018 fiscal year data. Here are these newer releases:
Sentencing Issues
- Mandatory Minimum Penalties (August 2019)

- Non-U.S. Citizens (August 2019)
- Career Offenders (August 2019)
