PROBLEM STATEMENT PROBATION SCHEDULE A GRANT DESCRIPTION GRANT No. AL1640 PAGE 1 When the Preventing Repeat Impaired Driving Effectively (PRIDE) was implemented in 2006, the Fresno County Probation Department (FCPD) had seen a significant increase in DUI offenders being placed on probation. From 2005 to 2006, countywide misdemeanor DUI convictions increased 21 % and countywide felony DUI convictions increased 121 %. The FCPD did not have adequate resources to effectively supervise felony DUI offenders and local statistics indicated a pressing need for a concerted effort on reducing DUI incidents in our community. Alcohol related deaths and injuries have declined substantially during the time Fresno County has operated this Repeat DUI program. According to the California Highway Patrol's Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), alcohol-related fatalities decreased over 30% between 2006 and 2010, while injuries decreased nearly 24%. Although the numbers trended downward every year from 2007 to 2010, it should be noted that 2010 was an especially good year for Fresno County, with numbers coming in substantially lower than would be predicted by the previous progression. Both deaths and injuries attributed to alcohol involved collisions increased from 2010 to 2011. However the figures for alcohol involved fatal collisions and fatalities in 2011 follow the downward trend experienced from 2007-2009. The figures for alcohol involved injury collisions and the number of persons injured were higher in 2011 than anticipated. We compared Fresno County's DUI experience during the three years prior to implementation of our Repeat DUI program to the time period since Repeat DUI has been in operation. The average number of fatalities has dropped from 66 to 55 per year, a reduction of 17%, while the average number of injured persons dropped from 858 to 696 per year, a reduction of 19%. Statewide, the average number of alcohol involved fatalities for those same periods dropped 9% while the average number of injuries from alcohol involved collisions dropped 10% It is evident that grant funded intensive supervision of high risk, repeat DUI offenders has been very effective but recent trends show that alcohol involved fatal and injury collisions continue to pose a grave problem in our community. DUI related collisions afflict Fresno County families--disrupting their lives, interfering with plans, altering capabilities and, all too often, ending relationships in an instant. DUI related casualties also impact Fresno County's economy--with employers losing man hours and employees losing work (and paychecks) due to another person's choice to drive after drinking alcohol or when impaired on drugs. All too often, the person who made that choice is a repeat offender, causing untold physical, emotional, and economic damage to yet another victim or victims! According to the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Collision Rankings, Fresno County is experiencing an increase in alcohol involved collisions based on daily vehicle miles traveled. (The County ranked number 1 has the highest or "worst" rate of collisions to miles.) In 2011, Fresno County's rank adversely increased to 21st among the 58 counties. Tracking collisions, injuries, and fatalities in Fresno County demonstrates that intensive supervision of DUI offenders has averted collisions and prevented victims from being killed and injured in alcohol involved collisions; however there is a need to provide intensive supervision of offenders who sustain convictions for OTS-38b (Rev. 4/15) PROBATION SCHEDULE A GRANT DESCRIPTION GRANT No. AL1640 PAGE2 driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) Recently, researchers in traffic safety have placed great emphasis in detecting, apprehending and monitoring DUIDs. A statewide survey on alcohol and drug use of California night time weekend drivers found that: "In terms of breath and oral fluid test results, 14% tested positive for at least one drug and 7 .3% tested positive for alcohol. One percent of tested drivers were at .08 blood alcohol content (BAC) or above" The survey results further revealed that over half of the drivers who tested positive for "at least one drug" tested positive for marijuana. Nearly 90% of drug positive drivers tested negative for alcohol. Based on this information, it is likely that many DUI collisions involve drivers impaired by drug use. Statewide, drug involved crash injuries increased 9% over the past decade; while drug involved crash fatalities increased 39%. The FCPD conducted a random sample of DUI offenders under active supervision to evaluate the need to establish an intensive DUID caseload. Thirty case files from each of the following caseloads were examined: • DUI involving alcohol (non intensive) • DUID-DUI involving drugs (non intensive), and • Repeat DUI-High-risk , repeat DUI Intensive Supervision (OTS Grant funded) For each of these groups, we reviewed entries for the period of 10/1/2012 through 9/30/2013 and tabulated the activities reflective of Repeat DUI grant objectives: • Office contacts made • Probationers tested for alcohol/drug use • Positive test results, and • Court actions initiated for violatable acts Our random sample revealed that in the first group, "DUI involving alcohol (non intensive)" only 10 of the 30 offenders were seen in the office during 2012-13. Two offenders were tested for alcohol/drug use, with negative results. None of the cases had court actions for violatable acts. Comparison of the DUID and the Repeat DUI caseloads was very interesting. Repeat DUI (OTS grant funded) intensive caseload offenders had 210% more office contacts made than the DUID caseload. Nearly twice as many Repeat DUI offenders were tested for alcohol/drug use, but DUID caseload offenders were less likely to receive official consequences. Court actions initiated for violatable acts were 20% greater in the Repeat DUI caseload than the DUID caseload. These results indicate that offenders on the DUID caseload are in need of intensive supervision. By including DUID offenders in our intensive caseloads, the FCPD can more effectively supervise these probationers and it is anticipated that drug involved collisions, fatalities, and injuries would decrease in Fresno County. OTS-38b (Rev. 4/15) PROBATION SCHEDULE A GRANT DESCRIPTION GRANT No. AL1640 PAGE3 Drug use is a formidable problem for Fresno County probationers---and a barrier to successful completion of Probation. Over the last year, the FCPD has been using state of the art saliva drug screening kits that test the 6 most common drugs used by offenders. The kits provide immediate results, so officers are able to quickly test offenders in the office or out in the field. The use of these kits has significantly increased our effectiveness in providing intensive supervision of DUI offenders. It is evident that OTS Repeat DUI grant funded intensive supervision has suppressed criminal and unfavorable behavior of Repeat DUI offenders in Fresno County. Without funding from OTS and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, FCPD's supervision of Dill offenders would be adversely impacted. Without grant funding, DUI offender recidivism and the number of alcohol & drug involved traffic collisions, including injuries and fatalities would likely increase, posing a great risk to our community.
