Criminal Justice
Substance Abuse
Abuse of alcohol and drugs is often associated with criminal behavior, and is frequently identified as a major obstacle for individuals seeking to quit such behavior. The data in this section were produced by a project seeking to better determine how many suspects do abuse alcohol and drugs, and how much. The 2007 Arizona Arrestee Reporting Information Network Annual Adult Report was based on self-reported alcohol and drug use and urine tests from 1,600 arrestees at five adult and juvenile intake facilities in Maricopa County.
