This is an ugly search. It reminds me of working in a back yard so full of dog shit that it is difficult to step between the piles of shit. This needs a rake, a shovel, and a wheel barrow. It's not pleasant to me.

There are a lot of directions concerning crimes, race and racism from and towards all directions, violence, victims, nationality, biased research, slanted journalism, opinion presented as fact, selective quotation of fact, apples and oranges, oxen to gore, propaganda, anything you want to hear to reinforce your preconceived notions. Loads of bullshit.

There are things which strike a common thread.

There is the information from the California Department Department of corrections above with a link to the whole document.

So far I have not been able to find verifiable demographic figures for county jails in California concerning demographics, charges, and convictions.

I'll wade through this a little more and provide a synopsis tomorrow or so.

Meanwhile, I'm going to go take a shower, maybe wash some of this off me.
