INTRODUCTION The following report is an analysis of the statistics presented in the 2003 and 2004 Annual Reports of the Office of the Chief Inspector released in June 2004 and June 2005 respectively. Although the Annual Reports include statistics on the grievances investigated by the ODRC Inspectors, as well as DRC Investigators, for CIIC evaluation and report purposes, it was decided to provide two separate reports, with one on the Investigators’ data, and one on Inspectors’ and their grievance procedure data. The Chief Inspector is the administrative head of all Institutional Inspectors and Investigators within the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections (ODRC). The Chief Inspector’s Annual Reports present a compilation of data from all Investigators in the 32 state prisons in operation in 2004. The data consists of raw numbers, and results of investigations undertaken at each correctional institution, but the Annual Reports do not provide any additional details or analysis. Institutional Investigators work as counterparts to the Institutional Inspectors. While Inspectors investigate and report findings on inmate grievances, Investigators are generally focused on illegal substances, assaults, or professional misconduct. In the past, Investigators have also monitored Security Threat Group (STG, aka "gang") activity. While Investigators serve on the STG committee, the ODRC has moved toward hiring STG Coordinators to provide greater attention to security threats and activity. The Annual Reports include data on the number of initiated investigations in the following areas: · Drugs o Positive Urinalyses o Staff/Inmate o Inmate/Visitor o Mail/Packages o Staff o Other · Assaults o Inmate on Inmate o Inmate on Staff o Sexual · Professional Misconduct o Staff Misconduct o Staff/Inmate Relationships · Other According to follow-up communication from the DRC Chief Inspector’s Office, the Investigator does not conduct all investigations at any given institution, nor are Investigators even always aware of other investigations being done by custody. The 7 Investigators only report the cases that they personally investigate. As such, institution numbers may vary from Investigator numbers. In addition to the initiated investigations, the Annual Reports also provide data pertaining to Searches, Shakedowns, and Drugs and Alcohol Confiscated. Specifically, the following areas are covered: · Canine Search · Visitor Strip/Patdown
