Where this sentencing data comes from

Florida Clerk of Courts public records, under Fla. Stat. § 900.05. Window: 2018–2026. Sentencing rates are published only where a charge has at least 10 records in Polk County; below that we publish the count alone. Percentages are weighted by case count, and are shares of all charges recorded — not of convictions.
