The public is invited to attend a community forum to discuss a new report on the high financial and human costs of “crimeless revocations” at 6:30 p.m., Tuesday, December 13. The free event will be held at First Congregational United Church of Christ, 1609 University Avenue, Madison, and will last approximately 90 minutes. There will be time for questions during the presentation.

The forum will discuss the financial, human, and community costs of the Wisconsin Department of Correction’s practice of annually revoking about 3,000 former inmates back into prison even though they have not been convicted of a new crime (“crimeless revocation”). They have only violated a rule of their community supervision.
