No full textFACTORS INFLUENCING RECIDIVISM AMONG PRISONERS IN KAKAMEGA COUNTY
No full textecidivism is the reversion of an individual to criminal behavior after he or she has been\ud
convicted of a prior offence, sentenced and presumably corrected. From the trend in the\ud
high prevalence of recidivism in many countries globally, there is a staggering high\ud
number of people being incarcerated and eventually released back to the community and\ud
the high risk of re-arrest and re-incarceration is a concern for policymakers,\ud
criminologists, and those involved in corrections. As a result of this, crime by former\ud
inmates alone account for a substantial share of current and future crimes. Thus, it\ud
becomes imperative to examine recidivism by looking at the socio-economic and\ud
demographic factors that influence recidivism among inmates in Kenyan prisons and the\ud
accompanying challenges ex-offenders face once released from prisons and also the role\ud
of prison experience on recidivism. This will be achieved though the review of relevant\ud
literature in reference to the. Qualitative and quantitative research designs will be applied\ud
in this study. Questionnaires, interview schedules and focused group discussions are the\ud
instruments that will be used in data collection. Both probabilistic and non-probabilistic\ud
sampling techniques will be applied. Purposive sampling will be used to identify\ud
recidivists from the general prison offender population based on the existing official\ud
prison records. Stratified random sampling will be used to achieve the desired\ud
representation from various sub-groups in the population. The researcher will carry out a\ud
pilot study at the Kakamega G.K Prisons to test the instruments of data collection
