drug offenders  

Définition

  • Drug offenders have been the fastest growing segment of the U.S. prison population since the mid-1980s. As a result of the “war on drugs,” which focused local enforcement on street dealing and increased sentences for drug crimes, drug offenders now make up a significant proportion of inmates in most state prisons and in the federal corrections systems.
