Considering the job market isn't doing very well, I'm guessing most will be back in prison soon.

I don't think they will be competing with me for a job, but the recidivism rate is up to them. I hope not and wish them success.

They are non-violent offenders and will still be on supervised probation. I am not overly worried, but my guess is that at least 20% of them will be back in jail for drug offenses within a year.
