520 |a "This study expands on prior Commission research by examining the geographic mobility of federal offenders. For this report, mobility is defined as having convictions in multiple states, including the location of the conviction for the instant offense. In doing so, this report adds to the existing literature on offender criminal history in two important ways. First, the report provides information on how mobile federal offenders are as measured by the number of offenders with convictions in multiple states. Second, the report provides information on the proportion of offenders with convictions in states other than the state in which the offender was convicted for the instant offense. This information has important policy implications. In the federal system, an offender's prior convictions may receive points if they occurred in any United States court system--whether federal, state, or military-- and if they meet the requirements set forth in Chapter Four of the Guidelines Manual. The Federal system differs from many state court sentencing systems which, for the purpose of calculating criminal history scores, only include prior convictions committed in their state. This report provides information on the number of convictions potentially not captured in the calculation of criminal history scores when out-of-state convictions are excluded. Not including out-of-state convictions will affect the accuracy of criminal history scores which, as noted above, are important to judges in determining an appropriate sentence to impose."--Page 1
