More updated post-Booker data from the USSC
Today the US Sentencing Commission has now finally made publically available on this Booker page a “Post-Booker Sentencing Update” with the USSC’s latest, greatest sentencing statistics. (This new data, available here, is a little different and seems more copious than the materials I received and posted here yesterday.) The USSC describes this latest offering as an “extensive set of tables and charts presenting data on post-Booker cases received, coded, and edited as part of the Commission’s post-Booker project,” and the USSC notes that numbers “are prepared using data extracted at close-of-business on June 6, 2005.”
I plan to savor this data throughout the weekend (especially since Tiger is threatening to make The Open a runaway), and I will post commentary soon on any numbers that really jump out. Readers are encouraged to do the same via comments.
