Q3: 13 inmates sentenced to serve in Hancock County to be released

27edited

There are 13 inmates sentenced to jail in Hancock County who will be released from the custody of the Georgia Department of Corrections during the third quarter of 2022.

The inmate being released serving the longest sentence is Roy Lee Gates Jr. for Voluntary Manslaughter. He was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Georgia imprisons a higher percentage of its population than any other democracy in the world, locking up 968 per 100,000 people.

State’s spend between $25,000 and $30,000 on average annually on incarcerated individuals.

Georgia’s crime rate increased in recent years, leading to higher incarceration numbers and more taxpayer money spent on prisoners.

Accusations of mistreatment of inmates, riots, deadly assaults on inmates, attacks on correctional officers, and concerns about the poor physical condition of the facilities are a continual problem in Georgia.

Inmates are often transferred around the state of Georgia, which can create data irregularities.
