A new report says one of every 13 adults in Georgia is in the prison system. Today's report by the Pew Center on the States notes discrepancies among the states in regard to the total corrections population. In New Hampshire, it's only one of every 88. Nationwide, the number of offenders on parole and probation has surged past 5 million. Including jail and prison inmates, the total population of the U.S. corrections system now exceeds 7.3 million - one of every 31 adults.
