  • Title: Recidivism among individuals detained under a warrant of the Lieutenant-Governor living in the community.
    Author: Komer B, Galbraith D.
    Journal: Can J Psychiatry; 1992 Dec; 37(10):694-8. PubMed ID: 1473074.
    Abstract:
    This paper reports the findings of a follow-up study of individuals on a warrant of the Lieutenant-Governor in community placement. Of the 32 individuals who had 8.5 years on average of community access, 6.3% had subsequent convictions. A comparison is made between the risk to the community posed by those on warrants and individuals in the general population. The results suggest that those on warrants have functioned relatively well in the community.
