Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice - Subscription at source 8/11/2021 Research article Foreign-born arrestees and recidivism: a multilevel analysis of arrest data from a Florida county Sheriff’s office Using approximately 30,000 arrest records from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office in Florida and neighborhood characteristics from the U.S. Census American Community Survey, this study examines the relationship between foreign-born status and recidivism.
