Uncage RRJThe record, kept in public

The System › Sources

Provenance

Every number on the map, and the ones that disagree

Every figure in The System traces to a published source. Where the packet Uncage RRJ already publishes in The Record carries the same figure, The System reads it from there (RRJA July 23, 2026 agenda packet (Rappahannock Regional Jail Authority), unaudited, 48 reconciliation rules), so the two sections of this site never disagree. Where published sources conflict with each other, the conflict is listed here with every value found. We do not silently pick one.

Contested figures

RRJ average daily population

1,105.34 (FY2026); 1,117.52 (FY2025)RRJA packet: local prisoner days ÷ days in the year. The figure The Record uses.RRJA July 23, 2026 agenda packet (Rappahannock Regional Jail Authority), unaudited

1,194.28 (July 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025)State capacity report; the higher figure is the one that yields 117% of rated capacityBoard of Local and Regional Jails Capacity Report, Oct. 1, 2025
1,141 total LIDS ADP (FY2024)Compensation Board figure, different fiscal year and counting methodCompensation Board FY2024 Jail Cost Report (facility detail)

Display guidance. Display the BOLRJ 1,194.28 figure when arguing crowding against the 1,024 rated capacity, because both numbers come from the same report. Do not mix the Uncage figure with the BOLRJ rated capacity in one ratio.

RRJ daily cost per incarcerated person

$124.34/day (FY2026, expenditure ÷ local prisoner days)Uncage RRJ calculation from the RRJA July 2026 packet: FY2026 expenditure divided by local prisoner daysUncage RRJ, The Record (FOIA responses, RRJA packet extraction, recorded testimony)
$88.92/day operating; $101.65/day total incl. capital and debtCompensation Board FY2024 standardized methodologyCompensation Board FY2024 Jail Cost Report (facility detail)
$113.76/day operating (regional jail statewide average)Statewide regional-jail average for comparisonCompensation Board FY2024 Jail Cost Report (statewide summary)

Display guidance. Use the Compensation Board $101.65 total when comparing against the state per diem, because both are Compensation Board figures. Cite the Uncage $124.34 as the organization's own FY2026 calculation, labeled as such.

Inmate telephone revenue

Display guidance. These are different fiscal years, not contradictions. Label the year on every figure.

Annual revenue from incarcerated people and their families

Approximately $2.9M/year (FY2025)Uncage RRJ analysis: ~$1.9M telephone, $735,588 commissary commission, $188,877 housing fees, $42,999 medical co-paysUncage RRJ, The Record (FOIA responses, RRJA packet extraction, recorded testimony)

Display guidance. Use the packet figure when the period is FY2026 and the argument is what the Board's own summary omits. Use the ~$2.9M figure when housing fees and medical co-pays belong in the total, and label the year.
