My colleague Brett recently emailed me a link to information about Justice Reinvestment, an effort to help states get smarter about reducing both crime and correctional spending. It made me realize, to my great shame, that I have never blogged about this project, which comes out of my buddy Mike Thompson's shop at the Council of State Governments' Justice Center. I think the best place to start, for those who are interested, is this webpage, which includes presentations by several of my criminal justice heroes.
