“Its inmate count increased 16% between 2010 and 2020 even as such numbers nationally fell by nearly a fourth”
Be interesting to see the demographic change for those ten years.
Funny how you don’t see Nebraska in the top states with victims of “gun crimes”.
Maybe one has something to do with the other?

It is obvious that the new laws are a success at getting dangerous criminals off the streets and behind bars.
For some reason, the Omaha Herald is unhappy about that.
Hopefully there aren’t a lot of people charged and convicted on these phony assault weapon laws.
Incarceration-one of my favorite subjects. Hundreds of thousands of $$ to build each cell and $30-50k to house them. I have solution(s) stated here before. Wanna hear them again? They’re cheap(er).
You don't say?
Kinda looks like locking up violent criminals is working in Nebraska while other states that are giving criminals a slap on the wrist are seeing an increase in violent crime.
They could always go one step further and deport any inmate who cannot provide proof of citizenship. After all, why does Nebraska need to feed house and clothe people who should even be in Nebraska?

And I care much more about that then how many thugs are locked up.
I always find it amusing when people complain of overcrowded prison and their solution is to let the criminals free. There’s a better way to relieve the crowded conditions - build more prisons!
NYC is reducing crime statistics by charging felony crimes as misdemeanors and pushing deferral programs. Will this make NYC residents safer?
Might Bubba Wallace’s garage pull play a part in your thinking?
Make them walk along abandoned railroad tracks. Give them tents, backpacks and sleeping bags. There are thousands of miles of them. At one with nature.
The kind of reporting done in a society completely lacking in its capacity for critical thought.
Someone defined Hell as a place devoid of reason.
Tent cities, pink underwear, bologna sandwiches and non stop loop on the speakers of Hillary and Camel Uh cackling
Guns are the worst thing in the world unless certain people get locked up for them.
Nebraska has the death penalty, but, in a deliberate Catch-22, Nebraska legislative kakistocrats have only legalized execution by lethal injection (for which no drug has been legalized). Nebraska Republican Governor Ricketts needs to hold the Nebraska legislators’ political feet to the fire to legalize other methods of execution to make more room in the crowded death row.

Bingo!
This is simply DemocRat strategy for overthrowing the Constitution through terror. Another term for violent felons released into the streets is persons doing their masters’ work.
