The Scottsdale City Jail has a licensed capacity of 56 inmates, but it often has to make room for many more, especially on weekends. Most city and county jails in Arizona turn over at least 40% of their population monthly, another 30% every 90 days, another 20% every six months, and about 8-9% stay incarcerated six to twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually charged with serious crimes such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in Maricopa County remain in custody at one of the Maricopa County facilities much longer.
Not everyone arrested in Arizona has to post bail. The state’s court rules start from the presumption that a defendant is released on their own recognizance, and judges set bail only when that isn’t enough to ensure the person returns to court or to protect public safety. Many people are released without paying anything.
Approximately 217,860 offenders are arrested and detained every year by Maricopa County law enforcement agencies.
