In Eureka County, three inmates were incarcerated in the first quarter of 2024, a 50% increase over the quarter before, according to the Nevada Department of Corrections.

Steven Don Barrack, a 39-year-old, was the youngest inmate sentenced in Eureka County in the first quarter of 2024.

Every year, at least 38,000 people are booked into Nevada's local jails.

Nevada has an incarceration rate of 713 per 100,000 people, which means it incarcerates a higher percentage of its population than any other democracy in the world.
