Monitoring prisoners preparingfor release: who ‘fails’ in openprison conditions?

Open prisons play a vital role in offender rehabilitation and resettlement but absconds, temporaryrelease failures (TRFs) and re-offences have damaging implications for the legitimacy of these institutions.

520 |a Open prisons play a vital role in offender rehabilitation and resettlement but absconds, temporaryrelease failures (TRFs) and re-offences have damaging implications for the legitimacy of these institutions. Identifying and mitigating the risk for such ‘failures’ is crucial. The present study examined predictors of failure in a sample of 316 adult male prisoners in two open prisons in England and Wales. Almost one-third (n=100) of the sample failed in open conditions, the greatest proportion (n=83,26.3%) instigated by the prison to maintain security and good order (security recall). Yet, only seven re-offended in the year following custodial release. Absconds, custodial re-offences, and TRFs were rare events. Regression analysis identified five factors predicting security recall. Current behaviour, rather than static/historical risk factors, more reliably predicted such failures. Behavioural monitoring and systemic policy re-evaluation are proposed as way of mitigating failures in open prisons.
