The 2009 reforms to New York’s Rockefeller Drug Laws included a requirement to study the impact

of these changes (see New York State Executive Law §837). This report details trends in arrests,

indictments and superior court informations (SCIs), prison commitments, and screening and

admission to felony drug court for felony drug and specified property offenses.1 Other reports on this

topic are posted to the DCJS website: www.criminaljustice.ny.gov.

Felony Drug Arrests, Indictments, and Commitments

The charts below present trends in felony drug arrests, indictments, and commitments across New

York City, large counties outside of NYC, and small counties outside of NYC.2 In New York City,

felony drug arrests, indictments, and commitments decreased dramatically from 2008 to 2016, with

commitments increasing slightly from 2015 to 2016. In large counties outside of NYC, arrests and

indictments declined from 2008 to 2015, then increased in 2016. Commitments declined from 2008

to 2013, then remained relatively stable. In small counties outside of NYC, felony drug arrests,

indictments, and commitments generally increased from 2008 to 2016.

1 Eligible property offenses include: third-degree burglary, second- and third-degree criminal mischief, third-

and fourth-degree grand larceny (excluding firearms), third- and fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property (excluding firearms), second-degree forgery, second-degree criminal possession of a forged instrument, second-degree unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, and first-degree unlawfully using slugs. 2 Trends in felony drug and specified property arrests, indictments, and commitments, by county and year, are presented in Appendix A through Appendix F.

Drug Offenders Under Custody

Over the past two decades, the decline in the total inmate population under custody is mostly

attributable to the decline in drug offenders under custody.

CPL Article 216: Judicial Diversion

The charts on Pages 5, 6, and 7 present screenings and admissions to felony drug court for

A216-eligible drug and specified property offenses. In New York City, felony drug court

screenings declined from 2010 to 2012, due in part to decreases in felony drug arrests, then

fluctuated through 2016. Felony drug court admissions peaked in 2010, declined through 2014,

and remained stable through 2016. In large counties outside of New York City, felony drug

court screenings and admissions declined after the initial spike in 2010, but continue to remain

higher than 2008, the year before the drug law changes took effect. In small counties outside of

New York City, felony drug court screenings peaked in 2012 and have been declining since

then. Admissions increased from 2008 to 2014, then decreased slightly through 2016.

Felony drug court screenings and admissions for A216-eligible arrests, by county, are presented

in Appendix G and Appendix H.
