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 Norfolk County Correctional Facility for the second quarter of calendar year 2025

This is not a legislative bill but a required quarterly report submission under Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 126, Section 40. The Norfolk County Sheriff's Office submits aggregate data on jail population (excluding individual identifying information) for the second quarter of 2025, including race, ethnicity, admission type, release type, and sentence length. This routine report complies with state law requiring sheriffs to deliver such data to the Secretary of Public Safety, judiciary committee chairs, and legislative clerks. It directly affects Norfolk County Correctional Facility operations and state oversight of jail population statistics. The report uses the Commonwealth's Criminal Justice Cross-Tracking System and notes limitations in reporting certain data (like bail amounts) due to system dependencies.
