Arkansas prison system touted as efficient by official
Stephens told a civic club that Arkansas prisons are less troubled than any similar facility in the nation. He cited a 70 inmates per employee ratio, the lowest in the country, and said the system has only 31 paid staff. He noted 49 percent of Cummins and Tucker inmates will likely return to other prisons, but that mirrors the national average.
