Report (United States. Department of Justice. Office of the Inspector General) ; I-2012-002.
Note "December 2011."
Includes tables.
"The Office of the Inspector General [OIG] examined whether the Department of Justice [Department] is effectively managing the International Prisoner Transfer Program (treaty transfer program) for foreign national inmates. The OIG evaluated the roles of the Department's components involved in the treaty transfer prgogram, the selection of inmates to be transferred, the timeliness of the process, the costs associated with the program, and recidivism in the United States by inmates who were transferred to their home countries."--Executive digest.500.
"The treaty transfer program is administered by the Department through the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), the Criminal Division, United States Attorneys' Offices (USAO), and the United States Marshals Service (USMS). The BOP is responsible for explaining the treaty transfer program to foreign national inmates, determining if a current treaty agreement exists for interested inmates and if those inmates are eligible for transfer, and preparing application packets for eligible inmates. The Criminal Division's Office of Enforcement Operations' (OEO) International Prisoner Transfer Unit (IPTU) reviews the application packets of eligible inmates and approves or denies transfer requests based on law enforcement concerns about the inmate, the likelihood of the inmate's social rehabilitation, and the likelihood that the inmate will return to the United States. The USAOs provide IPTU with facts and recommendations to consider when deciding whether to approve inmate transfer requests. Occasionally, USAOs may agree to include their position on treaty transfer as part of a plea agreement prior to a defendant's sentencing. The USMS manages the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS), which transports foreign national inmates to hearing court appearances, and detention facilities."--Executive digest.
Report includes responses from the Bureau of Prisons, the Criminal Division of the Justice Department, and the United States Attorneys' Office.
