- Research has found that releasing one prisoner is associated with an increase of 14.86 crimes per year.
- Complying with the order and releasing 9,600 inmates is projected to increase the crime rate due to the additional crimes that would be committed by the released prisoners based on prior research.
- The document cites previous research from 1996 that found a statistical relationship between releasing prisoners and increased crime rates.
