A communication from the Massachusetts Sheriffs’ Association (see Section 40 of Chapter 126 of the General Laws) submitting the aggregate data on the population of the Dukes County Correctional Facility for the second quarter of calendar year 2025

This bill (HD 5317) is a routine submission of Dukes County Correctional Facility's quarterly population report, required under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 126, Section 40. It provides non-identifying aggregate data on inmates' demographics, admission types, and sentence lengths for the second quarter of 2025. The report is submitted to the Secretary of Public Safety, judiciary committees, and legislative clerks as mandated by law. It does not create new policy but fulfills an existing reporting obligation for state oversight of correctional facilities.
