Prior Abuse Reported by Inmates and Probationers
Describes prior physical and sexual abuse reported by persons in prison, in jail, or on probation. The report examines type of abuse, age when the abuse occurred, age of the abuser, and the person's relationship with the abuser.

of Inmates in State and Federal Correctional Facilities. Other surveys
used in this report include the Survey of Inmates in Local Jails, 1996
and the Survey of Adults on Probation, 1995. 4/99. NCJ 172879
