Changes in South Dakota Corrections and Highway Safety CORRECTIONS INMATE NUMBERS HAVE BEEN STEADILY RISING BY 150 IN THE LAST 10 YEARS. THE LAST TWO YEARS HAVE SHOWN A NET DECREASE OF 200. THE SECRETARY OF CORRECTIONS CREDITS 24/7 AS RESPOSIBLE FOR A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THOSE NUMBERS. “ In the 28 years Warden Doug Weber has worked at the South Dakota state penitentiary, he's never seen the inmate population go down, two years in a row. "It's positive, it's reassuring, and it's refreshing," he says. One reason for the decrease is that judges have more options, such as the 24/7 program for drunk drivers, before sending a criminal to prison. ” WARDEN WEBER 07/22/08 HIGHWAY SAFETY NHTSA IS REPORTING SD HAD THE LARGEST PERCENTAGE DROP OF ALCOHOL RELATED FATAL CRASHES IN THE NATION FOR THE REPORTING PERIOD OF 2006/2007/2008 (A 43 % REDUCTION).
