COLLIER County: felony sentencing scoresheets by statute
1,089 felony sentencing events in COLLIER County, Florida, from public FDLE FDC Sentencing Scoresheet data, 22.8% imposed a state-prison sentence, 74.4% resolved by plea, and 5.1% were flagged as a mitigated (downward) departure below the guideline floor. The table below breaks the county's highest-volume primary-offense statutes down and shows the statewide rate for the same statute alongside.
“Lowest permissible sentence” is the Criminal Punishment Code guideline floor (F.S. 921.0024); a 0-month floor means the offense scored below the state-prison threshold, so a mitigated departure does not apply. The plea field is populated unevenly across counties, so a low county plea rate reflects the recorded share, not a measured trial rate. Sentence dates span 2021-07-01 to 2022-06-30.
Aggregate analysis, data fiscal year FY2021-22. Reproducible from public records. The source is de-identified (offender = system GUID) and has no judge identifier, so no claim is made about any individual defendant or judge. Past outcomes only; not a prediction for any case.
Scoresheet outcomes by primary-offense statute
The highest-volume primary-offense statutes in COLLIER County. The “state prison” column shows the county rate with the statewide rate for the same statute in parentheses, so a local figure can be read against the state. The “mitigated departure” column shows the share of all events in the cell, then in parentheses the share among only the floor-eligibleevents (those whose guideline floor exceeds 0 months — the only events that can take a downward departure); it reads “—” in parentheses where no event in the cell scored a floor above 0. “Median prison (when imposed)” is the typical term among only the state-prison sentences in that statute and reads “—” where fewer than 10 such sentences exist.

Methodology & limitations
- Source: public Florida FDLE Criminal Justice Data Transparency (CJDT) FDC Sentencing Scoresheet base file, grouped by county and primary-offense statute. Fiscal year: FY2021-22. Every figure is reproducible from a published script against the source data.
- Lowest permissible sentence (the floor): the Criminal Punishment Code minimum the scoresheet computes (F.S. 921.0024), in months. It is 0 for offenses scoring below the state-prison threshold, where a non-prison sentence is guideline-compliant and a mitigated departure does not apply.
- Mitigated departure (two denominators): the official scoresheet flag for a sentence below the lowest permissible sentence. The table's first departure figure is the share of all events in the cell — which includes floor-0 events that structurally cannot depart — so it understates the rate among cases that could. The parenthetical is the share among only the floor-eligibleevents (guideline floor > 0), which is the meaningful rate. Statewide, 40.8% of events scored a floor above 0.
- No judge dimension. The source is de-identified and contains no judge identifier. Nothing here describes how any individual judge sentences.
- What the data does NOT show: these figures describe recorded sentencing events and do not control for criminal history beyond the scoresheet, offense severity within a statute, case facts, or plea terms. A statute rate is a baseline, not a prediction for any specific case. This page reports aggregates only and identifies no individual.
