Cevap

B FalseThe general consensus across studies is not that 75% of jail inmates have a serious mental illness. Research indicates that the prevalence of serious mental illness among jail inmates is significant but typically estimated to be around 15-25%. This includes conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depression. The figure of 75% is likely an overestimation.
