Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003

Sexual Violence Reported
by Correctional Authorities, 2005
By Allen J. Beck, Ph.D.
and Paige M. Harrison
BJS Statisticians
On September 4, 2003, President
George W. Bush signed into law the
Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003
(P.L. 108-79). The legislation requires
the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) to
develop new national data collections on
the incidence and prevalence of sexual
violence within correctional facilities.
This report fulfills the requirement under
Sec. 4 (c)(1) of the act for submission of
an annual report on the activities of BJS
with respect to prison rape.
In 2004, as one step in a multiphase
implementation strategy, BJS completed the first-ever national survey of
administrative records on sexual violence in adult and juvenile correctional
facilities. In 2005 the survey was
expanded to collect detailed information
on substantiated incidents. New survey
items included the circumstances surrounding each incident, characteristics
of victims and perpetrators, the type of
pressure or physical force, victim injuries, sanctions imposed, and victim
assistance.
The 2005 survey results should not be
used to rank systems or facilities. Future
data collections, based on surveys of
current and former inmates, are being
developed to permit reliable comparisons of facilities.

Second administrative records
collection conducted for 2005
Between January 1 and June 22,
2006, BJS completed the second
national survey of the incidence and
prevalence of sexual violence in correctional facilities. The Governments
Division of the U.S. Census Bureau
was the data collection agent for the
survey. Initiated in 2004, the survey
was conducted to provide information
on occurrences of sexual violence
based on allegations brought to the
attention of correctional authorities.
Although the results are limited to incidents reported to officials, the survey
provides an understanding of what officials know, how many allegations were
reported, and the outcomes of followup
investigations.

In 2005 the survey was expanded to
obtain data on each substantiated incident in which the event was investigated and determined to have
occurred. Using a separate incident
form, the survey obtained incidentbased data on all substantiated allegations, providing a basis for an in-depth
analysis of sexual violence. New information included details on the circumstances surrounding each incident,
characteristics of victims and perpetrators, type of pressure or physical force
used, victim injuries, sanctions
imposed, and victim assistance.
Administrative records alone cannot
provide reliable estimates of sexual
violence. Due to fear of reprisal from
perpetrators, a code of silence among
inmates, personal embarrassment,

and lack of trust in staff, victims are
often reluctant to report incidents to
correctional authorities.
BJS is developing and testing methods
for more fully measuring the incidence
of sexual violence in correctional facilities. These methods will rely on selfadministered surveys to provide anonymity to victims when reporting their
experiences. At the same time, computer-assisted technologies will ensure
uniform conditions under which
inmates complete the survey, and
sampling techniques and supplemental
data collections will reduce potential
biases. (See box below for an update
of these activities.)

Collection of victim self reports to begin in 2006
BJS is working toward full implementation of the Prison Rape Elimination Act.
BJS has entered into cooperative
agreements with —

As of June 30, 2006, the following work
had been completed or was underway:

1. Research Triangle International
(RTI) (Raleigh, NC) to develop and
test the adult prison and jail collection methodologies;

• The ACASI questionnaire and survey
protocols for adult inmates have been
developed and tested. Between January and May 2006, BJS and RTI completed a pretest with more than 1,400
inmates in 4 State prisons, 4 local jail
facilities, and 1 Federal prison. Results
of the pretest will be published in
October 2006 and assessed at a
national meeting of stakeholders in
November.

2. Westat, Inc. (Rockville, MD) to
develop and test methodologies
for measuring sexual violence in
State and local juvenile facilities;
3. National Opinion Research
Center (NORC) (Chicago, IL) to
develop and test methods of collecting data from former inmates.
Though underlying survey methodology and logistical procedures differ
with each of the data collection efforts,
the measurement strategies will be
consistent. The surveys will consist
of an Audio Computer-Assisted SelfInterview (ACASI) in which respondents interact with a computer-administered questionnaire using a touchscreen and follow audio instructions
delivered via headphones. The use of
ACASI is expected to overcome many
limitations of previous research. (See
Data Collections for the Prison Rape
Elimination Act of 2003, December 30,
2005.)

Prison and jail inmates

• In July 2006 BJS will submit an overview of all survey procedures, sampling
methods, and questionnaires to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for approval to begin national
implementation in late 2006.
• Procedures for selecting prison and
jail facilities and for sampling inmates
within selected facilities have been
developed. In the first year of implementation, BJS expects to select 450
public and private prisons and jails and
to interview more than 60,000 inmates.
• Upon OMB approval, RTI field staff
will begin obtaining approval from
State-level Institutional Review Boards
(IRB) and begin interviews in January
2007.

Youth in residential placement facilities
• Survey procedures and questionnaires have been developed and
reviewed by State and local administrators and other stakeholders.
Cognitive testing of questionnaires
with eligible youth began in June 2006.
• A formal pretest of collection methods in 10 juvenile facilities with up to
600 youth is planned for September
2006.
• National implementation is expected
in 2007. Initial survey efforts will focus
on more than 14,000 adjudicated youth
in a sample of 150 State-operated
facilities and 30 large, local or private
facilities.
Former State prisoners
• An ACASI questionnaire, an administrative records form, and survey protocols have been developed to survey
former inmates under active parole or
post-custody supervision.
• A formal pretest of collection methods
in 10-20 parole offices with up to 1,000
former inmates is planned for September 2006.
• National implementation is scheduled
in 2007 with more than 11,500 completed interviews expected in 285
parole field offices.

The 2005 administrative survey provides the basis for the annual statistical review, as required under the act.
These data will be used by the Review
Panel on Prison Rape within the
Department of Justice for purposes of
conducting hearings concerning the
operation of correctional facilities. The
number of allegations and substantiated incidents for each system and
sampled facility in the survey is provided. (See Appendix tables.)

2005 survey covered 1,866 adult
correctional facilities
The 2005 survey included all Federal
and State prison systems and facilities
operated by the U.S. military and the
Bureau of Immigration and Customs
Enforcement (table 1). In addition, a
representative sample was drawn of
local jail jurisdictions, privately operated adult prisons and jails, and jails in
Indian country. Altogether, the administrative survey covered 1,867 of the
5,220 adult facilities. These facilities

How sexual violence was measured
The definition of “rape” as required under the Prison Rape Elimination Act of
2003 was operationalized by disaggregating sexual violence into two categories of inmate-on-inmate sexual acts and two categories of staff sexual misconduct. The categories were —
Nonconsensual sexual acts
Contact of any person without his or her consent, or of a person who is unable
to consent or refuse; and
• Contact between the penis and the vagina or the penis and the anus including penetration, however slight; or
• Contact between the mouth and the penis, vagina, or anus; or
• Penetration of the anal or genital opening of another person by a hand, finger, or other object.
Abusive sexual contacts
Contact of any person without his or her consent, or of a person who is unable
to consent or refuse; and
• Intentional touching, either directly or through the clothing, of the genitalia,
anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks of any person.
• Excluding incidents in which the intent of the sexual contact is to harm or
debilitate rather than sexually exploit.
Staff sexual misconduct
Any behavior or act of a sexual nature directed toward an inmate by an
employee, volunteer, official visitor, or agency representative. Romantic relationships between staff and inmates are included. Consensual or nonconsensual sexual acts include:
• Intentional touching of the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks with the intent to abuse, arouse, or gratify sexual desire; or
• Completed, attempted, threatened, or requested sexual acts; or
• Occurrences of indecent exposure, invasion of privacy, or staff voyeurism for
sexual gratification.
Staff sexual harassment
Repeated verbal statements or comments of a sexual nature to an inmate by
an employee, volunteer, official visitor, or agency representative, including:
• Demeaning references to gender or derogatory comments about body or
clothing; or
• Profane or obscene language or gestures.

housed more than 1.7 million inmates,
or 78% of all inmates held in adult facilities in 2005.*
The survey was based on seven separate samples corresponding to the different types of facilities covered under
the act. (See Methodology, page 11.)
Each sample was designed in accordance with the requirement that BJS
draw a random sample, or other scientifically appropriate sample, of not less
than 10% of facilities. Entire systems
were selected, when possible, to maximize reporting coverage. Local and private facilities were sampled to ensure
at least one in each State and with
selection probabilities proportionate to
the number of inmates held.
In 2004 BJS developed uniform definitions of sexual violence. (See box to
the left.) Incidents of inmate-on-inmate
sexual violence were classified as nonconsensual sexual acts and abusive
sexual contacts. Incidents of staff-oninmate sexual violence were separated
into staff sexual misconduct and staff
sexual harassment. For purposes of
this report, all such incidents are considered sexual violence.
*A survey of State-operated juvenile systems
and privately or locally operated juvenile facilities
was also conducted. Survey results for juvenile
systems and facilities will be published in a separate report.

Sexual Violence Reported by Correctional Authorities, 2005

State prison reporting capabilities
improve during 2005
The most serious forms of sexual violence (inmate-on-inmate nonconsensual sexual acts and staff sexual misconduct) were the most widely
reported using survey definitions and
reporting rules (table 2). During 2005
State and Federal prison authorities
enhanced their abilities to report data
on sexual violence.
Correctional authorities in more than
36 State and Federal prison systems
were able to report incidents of inmateon-inmate nonconsensual acts as
defined in the 2005 survey (up from 34
in 2004). Authorities in 38 States were
able to report incidents of abusive sexual contacts separately, while 10 combined these incidents with the more
serious nonconsensual acts. Only 2
systems did not record abusive sexual
contacts, down from 9 in 2004.
The greatest improvements in reporting were for staff sexual misconduct
and harassment. In 2005 most prison
administrators (44) were able to report
data on staff sexual misconduct using
survey definitions, up from 35 in 2004.
Six systems were unable to separate
sexual harassment from misconduct in
2005, down from nine in 2004. Only 1
system was unable to report any data
on sexual harassment in 2005, down
from 13 in 2004.
The ability to report incidents of sexual
violence by authorities in sampled jail
jurisdictions dropped during 2005.
Also, jail authorities were less likely
than prison authorities to meet survey
definitions. A third of jail jurisdictions
were unable to separate abusive sexual contacts from the more serious
nonconsensual sexual acts; a fifth
were unable to report staff sexual
harassment separately from staff sexual misconduct.

Sexual violence allegations
increased

The lower percents meeting survey
requirements may be the result of the
sampling procedures. More than twothirds of the jail jurisdictions (242)
received the definitions and reporting
criteria for the first time in 2005, while
all of the prison systems received the
survey in 2004. BJS expects to work
with administrators to improve reporting, especially in large jail jurisdictions
with systems too large for manual
searches of paper files.

Reports of sexual violence varied
across systems and sampled facilities,
with every State prison system except
New Mexico reporting at least one allegation of sexual violence. Among the
347 sampled local jails, 131 (38%)
reported an allegation. About 42% of
the 36 sampled privately operated prisons and jails reported at least one allegation.

As first noted in the 2004 report, the
absence of uniform reporting necessitates caution when interpreting the survey results. The data should not be
used to rank systems or facilities.
Higher or lower counts, especially
among jail jurisdictions, may reflect
variations in definitions, reporting
capacities, and procedures for recording allegations and not differences in
the underlying incidence of sexual violence.
All selected correctional systems and
facilities responded to the survey.

Combined, the 2005 survey recorded
5,247 allegations of sexual violence.
Taking into account weights for sampled facilities, the estimated total number of allegations for the Nation was
6,241. Expressed in terms of rates,
there were 2.83 allegations of sexual
violence per 1,000 inmates held in
2005, up from 2.43 per 1,000 inmates
held in prisons, jails, and other adult
correctional facilities in 2004. Prison
systems reported 74% of all allegations; local jails, 22%; private prisons
and jails, 3%; and other adult facilities,
1%.

Federal prisons for which investigations had been completed, 14% of
nonconsensual sexual acts were substantiated, compared to 15% of allegations of staff sexual misconduct (table
3). In jails 16% of completed investigations of nonconsensual sexual acts
were substantiated, compared to 37%
of the allegations of staff sexual misconduct.

Approximately 15% of allegations
of nonconsensual sexual acts in
2005 were substantiated

The most common outcome of investigations of sexual violence was a determination of lack of evidence. More
than 66% of allegations of staff sexual
misconduct in prison and 49% of
allegations of inmate-on-inmate nonconsensual sexual acts were unsubstantiated. More than a third of completed investigations of nonconsensual
sexual acts in State and Federal prisons (37%) and local jails (38%) were
determined to be unfounded.

Allegations reported in 2005 were classified as:
• substantiated, if they were determined to have occurred
• unsubstantiated, if the evidence was
insufficient to make a final determination that they occurred
• unfounded, if they were determined
not to have occurred
• investigation ongoing, if a final determination had not been made at time of
data collection.
Overall, inmate-on-inmate allegations
of nonconsensual sexual violence
were less likely to be substantiated
than allegations of staff sexual misconduct. Based on allegations in State and

During 2005 correctional authorities
substantiated 885 incidents of
sexual violence
The survey of administrative records
recorded 620 substantiated incidents
of sexual violence. Taking into account
sampling of local jails, private prisons
or jails, and jails in Indian country, the
estimated total for the Nation was 885.
Relative to the number of inmates,
there were 0.40 substantiated incidents of sexual violence per 1,000
inmates reported in 2005, down from
the 0.55 per 1,000 inmates in adult
facilities in 2004.

Sexual Violence Reported by Correctional Authorities, 2005 5

Correctional authorities provided
detail on 82% of substantiated
incidents
For the first time in the 2005 survey
prison systems and sampled facilities
were asked to provide detailed information on each substantiated incident
of sexual violence. Using a separate
incident form, the survey obtained incident-based data, providing a basis for
an in-depth analysis of sexual violence. Data included details on the circumstances surrounding each incident, characteristics of victims and
perpetrators, type of pressure or physical force, sanctions imposed and victim assistance.
Incident-level data were reported on
510 of the 620 substantiated incidents
(82%). More than two-thirds of the
unreported incidents were in the Federal system (missing data on 35 incidents of inmate-on-inmate sexual

violence), New Hampshire (missing 23
incident reports), and Vermont (missing 16 reports on staff sexual harassment). An additional 25 substantiated
incidents were missing from local jail
reports. Because most systems and
facilities reported fully, there was little
evidence of any selection bias among
the 510 incident reports.
Data provided on substantiated incidents of inmate-on-inmate sexual violence revealed that —
• In 4% of the incidents more than one
inmate was victimized (table 4).
• In 7% of the incidents there was more
than one perpetrator (table 5).
• Males comprised 88% of the victims
and 91% of the perpetrators in prison
and jails.
• 74% of victims in jail and 42% in
prison were age 24 or younger; while
42% of perpetrators in jail and 66% in
prison were age 30 or older.

Physical force or threat of force was
used in 51% of inmate-on-inmate
sexual violence
Correctional authorities reported that
force or threat of force was involved in
about half of all incidents of inmate-oninmate sexual violence (table 6). In
less than a third of the incidents no
force was used or threatened. In other
incidents of inmate sexual violence,
victims were talked into it (18%),
bribed/blackmailed (11%), or offered
protection from other inmates (6%).
Force was more common among incidents of nonconsensual sexual activity
than among incidents of abusive sexual contacts. In nearly a third of nonconsensual sexual acts, the victim was
physically held down or restrained. In a
sixth, the victim was physically harmed
or injured.
In more than two-thirds of the inmateon-inmate incidents, the sexual violence occurred in the victim’s cell
(59%) or in a dormitory (12%). In only
21% of the substantiated incidents did
the sexual violence occur in a common
area, such as a shower or a day room.
In less than 9% of the incidents, the
inmate-on-inmate sexual violence
occurred in a program service area,
such as in a storage room, hallway,
laundry, cafeteria, kitchen or workshop.
Incidents of inmate sexual violence
were the most common (44%) in the
evening between 6 p.m. and midnight
and the least common (18%) overnight
between midnight and 6 a.m. The most
serious forms of inmate sexual violence (nonconsensual sexual acts)
were most likely to have occurred in
the evening (50%); while the least serious acts (abusive sexual contacts)
were most likely to have occurred in
the morning between 6 a.m. and noon
(41%).

In nearly 90% of the substantiated incidents of inmate sexual violence, the
victim or another inmate reported the
incident. In less than 11% of the incidents had a correctional officer made

the initial report. In only 4% of the most
serious incidents (nonconsensual sexual acts) had medical or health care
staff reported the incident.

8 Sexual Violence Reported by Correctional Authorities, 2005

Half of victims of nonconsensual
sexual acts were placed in
protective custody or administrative
segregation
The most common response following
a reported incident of sexual violence
was to place the victim in administrative segregation or protective custody
(44%) or to transfer the victim to
another facility (11%). Given differing
housing options, prison authorities
were more likely than jail authorities to
move the victims rather than confine
them to their cell/room.
Victims of abusive sexual contacts
were the least likely to be moved, with
over half (53%) having no change in
housing. About a third of the victims of
nonconsensual sexual acts were confined to their cell (11%) or had no
change in their housing (23%).
Most inmate perpetrators received
legal sanctions or solitary
confinement
• A legal sanction, including arrest,
referral for prosecution, or new sentence, was imposed on perpetrators in
31% of the substantiated incidents in
prisons; 83% of the incidents in jails.
• Perpetrators were referred for prosecution in more than half of the substantiated incidents of nonconsensual sexual acts; in a third of the incidents of
abusive sexual contacts.
• Perpetrators were moved to solitary
confinement in 72% of the incidents of
nonconsensual sexual acts and in 70%
of the incidents of abusive sexual contacts.
• Perpetrators also received other
sanctions, including confinement to
own cell/room (28%), loss of privileges
(21%), placement in a higher custody
level (20%), or transfer to another facility (19%).

Two-thirds of incidents of staff
sexual misconduct with inmates
were reported to be romantic

Other data reported on substantiated
incidents of staff sexual misconduct
and harassment revealed that —

Female staff implicated in staff
sexual misconduct in prisons;
males in local jails

The survey collected data on 344 substantiated incidents of staff sexual misconduct and harassment during 2005.
In two-thirds of these incidents, correctional authorities determined that staff
had a romantic relationship with the
inmate (table 8). Although legally all
sexual relationships between staff and
inmates are considered nonconsensual, fewer than 15% of the substantiated incidents involved physical force,
abuse of power or pressure by staff.

• In more than half the incidents, either
the victim (32%) or another inmate
(26%) reported the misconduct (table
9).
• In a third of the incidents, correctional
officers (18%) or administrative staff
(16%) reported the incident. In 10% of
the incidents, the misconduct was
reported anonymously.
• Most incidents of staff sexual misconduct and harassment occurred outside
of the inmate’s living area, in a program area (53%), outside of the facility
(12%), or in a common area (10%).
• In prisons, incidents of staff sexual
misconduct occurred most often
between noon and 6 p.m. (50%); in
jails, incidents occurred more evenly
throughout the day.
• In 5% of the incidents more than one
staff member was involved in the sexual misconduct.
• In 10% of the incidents more than
one inmate was involved.

Characteristics of victims and perpetrators of staff sexual misconduct and
harassment differed among prisons
and jail facilities:

Coercion, including force, pressure,
unwanted touching, indecent exposure, and harassment, was more common among incidents in jails (43%)
than in prisons (26%).

• In State and Federal prisons 67% of
the victims of staff misconduct were
male, while 62% of the perpetrators
were female (tables 10 and 11).
• In local jails 78% of the victims were
females; 87% of the perpetrators,
male.
• 47% of the prison staff involved in
sexual misconduct and harassment
were age 40 or older; compared to
27% of the jail staff.
• In prisons 69% of the perpetrators
were white, 25% black, and 3% Hispanic.
• In jails 74% of the perpetrators were
white, 21%, black, and 4% Hispanic.

Table 11. Characteristics of inmates involved
in staff sexual misconduct and harassment,
by type of facility, 2005

Among victims of staff sexual misconduct, white inmates were overrepresented compared with the general inmate population. Non-Hispanic whites comprised 57% of the inmates involved in staff misconduct, compared to 36% of all prison and jail inmates at midyear 2005.
(See Prison and Jail Inmates at Midyear 2005, NCJ 213133.) Non-Hispanic blacks comprised 27% of inmates involved in staff misconduct;
40% of all inmates nationwide. Hispanic inmates were 10% of the victims of staff misconduct compared to 20% of the inmate population.
Over two-thirds of perpetrators of staff sexual misconduct
or harassment were correctional officers
Most substantiated incidents of staff sexual misconduct and harassment involved correctional officers — 57% of the incidents in prisons;
89% of those in jails (table 12). In prisons, nearly 16% of perpetrators
of staff misconduct were maintenance and other facility support staff,
including groundskeepers, janitors, cooks, and drivers. An additional
10% of perpetrators in prisons were medical or health care staff,
including counselors, doctors, dentists, nurses, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and medical assistants.
In both prisons and jails, about 13% of the staff perpetrators of sexual
misconduct or harassment were contract employees or vendors.
Inmates involved in staff sexual misconduct often transferred
or placed in segregation
In 27% of the substantiated incidents of staff sexual misconduct the
inmates involved were transferred to another facility; in 20% of the
incidents they were placed in administrative segregation or protective
custody (table 13). In incidents involving a romantic relationship
between inmate and staff, more than half of the inmates were either
transferred (30%) or placed in administrative segregation (22%) (not
shown).

Sexual Violence Reported by Correctional Authorities, 2005

Nearly 90% of perpetrators of staff
misconduct arrested, referred for
prosecution, or discharged
Correctional authorities indicated that
in 82% of the substantiated incidents
staff had been discharged or resigned;
45% arrested or referred for prosecution, and 17% were disciplined, transferred, or demoted.
Among the multiple types of sanctions
imposed on staff, discharge or resignation was the most common — 30% of
the incidents in prison and 55% of
those in jails. Many staff chose to
resign (43%) rather than be terminated. In incidents involving a romantic
relationship between an inmate and
staff, 90% of staff were discharged or
resigned (not shown). In incidents
involving coercion, 64% of staff lost
their jobs and 53% were arrested or
referred for prosecution.
Methodology
The 2005 Survey of Sexual Violence
was based on seven separate samples, corresponding to the different

facilities covered under the act. The
following samples were drawn:
1. The survey included all 50 State
adult prison systems and the Federal
Bureau of Prisons. Prison administrators were directed to report only on
incidents of sexual violence that
occurred within publicly operated adult
facilities.
2. A sample of 32 privately operated
prison facilities was drawn to represent
a 10% sample of the 319 private prisons identified in the 2000 Census of
State and Federal Adult Correctional
Facilities and updated for new construction and closures since 2000.
Facilities were sorted by region and
average daily population and then
sampled with probabilities proportionate to size. One sampled facility had
closed.
3. Publicly operated jail facilities were
selected based on data reported in the
2004 Deaths in Custody collection.
Jurisdictions were sorted into 6 strata,
based on their average daily popula-

tions, and then sampled systematically, to provide a representative
national sample. A total of 72 jurisdictions were sampled with certainty (corresponding to the largest jurisdiction in
each State plus 26 jurisdictions
selected due to their large size). An
additional 278 jurisdictions were
selected from 4 strata, with probabilities of selection proportionate to size.
Jail administrators were directed to
report on all publicly operated facilities
within their jurisdiction. Of the 350
selected facilities, 3 had closed.
4. A sample of 5 privately operated
jails was also selected based on the
data reported in the 2004 Deaths in
Custody collection. The 38 private
facilities were sorted by region and
their average daily population during
2004. Facilities were selected systematically using a random start and a
fixed sampling interval.
5. Three additional samples of other
correctional facilities were drawn to
represent:
a) jails in Indian country (7 facilities
holding adults were selected from a
total of 68 based on probabilities proportionate to size);
b) military-operated facilities (all of the
59 facilities operated by the Armed
Services in the continental U.S.);
c) 14 facilities operated by the Bureau
of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Data for each correctional system and
sampled facility are displayed in the
Appendix tables. In each table a measure of population size has been provided as a basis of comparison; however, the survey results should not be
used to rank systems or facilities. Variations in the number of allegations and
substantiated incidents may reflect differences in definitions and reporting
criteria, as well as variations in procedures for recording allegations and in
the thoroughness of subsequent investigations.
