Functions
It is the primary responsibility of the Presentence Investigation (PSI) Unit to provide the court with written, detailed reports that assist in determining an appropriate disposition. These reports are compiled after completing an in-depth interview with the defendant and doing an investigation into their background.
Background Checks
A defendant's criminal history, education, employment, and treatment or counseling are examples of some of the information that is verified. Victims of offenses are also contacted for restitution information and to provide victim impact statements when applicable.
