Nearly two-thirds of inmates released (65%) were released via parole; this type of release<br />

was especially likely for TC inmates (Table 15). An additional one-fifth (21%) ofthe sample was<br />

reparoled (i.e., after serving time for a previous parole violation). Only 12% served their full<br />

sentence. A small portion of others (2%) was released via other mechanisms. Four inmates died<br />

while in custody. As a result, we were able to obtain 1,071 valid cases (230 + 701 + 133 + 7) for<br />

analyses at this time. Of these, 247 inmates (23%) were in the experimental (TC) group, with<br />

potentially an additional 28 cases to be added fkom the Alumni group. The comparison group<br />

consisted of 803 inmates fiom Education (369) and Outpatient (440) groups.<br />

We first present results for reincarceration, then rearrest, and then drug relapse. Sample<br />

sizes varied depending upon the number of missing cases in each agency data run, as well as the<br />

date of the data run (which influenced the total amount of time that an inmate has been at risk<br />

0<br />

since his release).<br />
