Legal Involvement

Of the clients participating in this study:

• 22% admitted having engaged in illegal activity for profit in the last 30 days.
• On average, those who were currently engaged in illegal activities admitted to having done so 13 of the last 30 days.

From a longer Term View

• 81% of these Narconon clients had been incarcerated in their lifetime.
• 33% of these clients had been incarcerated for greater than a month.
• 13% had been incarcerated for greater than a year in their lifetimes.
• On average, they had been in jail 4.3 +/- 10.5 months in their lifetimes.

There is a major problem with illegal activities in this group. As described later, the Narconon program does have a very positive effect on these statistics.
