Priority prosecution of high-rate dangerous criminals should help reduce crime, either by making sure that serious offenders are incarcerated, or by lengthening their sentences. But priority prosecution programs can't always focus on high-rate dangerous offenders. Sometimes offenders' instant offenses or prior records do not clearly indicate the nature of their actual criminal behavior. The concrete advice offered in this report will be useful to every DA who wants to improve office practices for selecting high-rate dangerous offenders for priority prosecution.
