Abstract:
This study involved a mixed method evaluation of interpersonal violence and institutional misconduct in the Los Angeles county jail system. Interviews with 52 correctional staff uncovered a widely shared belief that AB 109, Prop 47, and the Rosas decision had all contributed to an increase in violence and misconduct in the jail. Analysis of administrative records indicated there was a rise in the monthly rates of these adverse outcomes from 2010 to 2017. Intervention ARIMA models, however, revealed evidence of a statistically significant increase following only the passage of Prop 47. An exami

Abstract:
Despite the widespread popularity of mindfulness as a wellness intervention strategy across educational levels, its proponents are susceptible to countering the intended area of improvement. This article recounts the cumulative reflections of an educator and his attempts to implement mindfulness into high school classes at the Los Angeles County Jail. Beginning with a layout of the physical and social settings, the article examines the ways that unconsciously practicing mindfulness will counter and potentially negate the possible benefits of mindful practice.

Abstract Phytotoxicity trials on bedding plants, Los Angeles County, Calif., evaluated the effects of 1 x , 2 X , and 4 X rates of FMC 54800 2E, FMC 54800 10WP (1 x =0.125 lb AI/100 gal) and Zectran 2E (1 x = 0.5 lb AI/100 gal). Two flats, each containing 9 pony paks with 6 plants, were evaluated per treatment for each species. The materials were applied to runoff with a 2.5 gpm piston pump hand sprayer with a 5003 Spraying Systems® nozzle @ 150 psi on 3 Jul and 17 Jul, 33-38°C and 29-31°C, respectively. Weekly phytotoxicity readings were compared to a water check.

Abstract:
The recognition that women are not in a fixed position but are dynamic and active in any of the processes of migration and post-migration adjustment helps us to see the complexity of women's participation in migration. Using life history interviews, three Sri-Lankan womens' migration experiences are examined for the ways in which personal networks were utilized in various phases of the migration process and how social and human capital was transformed in the post-migration adjustment process. Though in some instances the data did not fully support Boyd's (1989) predictions of the ways in which

This chapter presents the historical transformation of the Los Angeles County jail system in order to explain why medicine has becomes a useful tool for jailers. Jails were successfully pressured into providing expanded healthcare by various legal agencies at the exact same time that they faced unprecedent budget constraint. In response, jails began thinking of their inmates less as violent gang members and more as mentally ill, substance abusers, and less threatening homeless persons. Doing so allowed them to draw in funding from other agencies and to release thousands of inmates. In total th

Abstract:
Chapter 7 looks at the special housing unit for gay and transgender prisoners in the Los Angeles County Jail. This unit houses a small population, and many of the residents know each other from interacting on the street. In addition, because of an unusual and controversial admissions process, prisoners in this unit are far more likely to share more similar social identities. This chapter shows that as a result of all three factors, decentralized governance mechanisms are highly effective in this housing unit. Prisoners have not relied on the more extensive, centralized institutions that men in
