It would be up to Leeke and his governing board to reach agreement with the Budget and Control Board on how many inmates state prisons can "safely and reasonably" hold. Leeke said later he would probably push for the same figure of 6,000 that { he used earlier unless more prisons could be opened. The task force hopes to get the proposed "prison overcrowding powers act" passed next year. If it does, early releases of some inmates would begin right away. "We're not just going to have to sell this thing to the General Assembly," Drummond said. "We're going to have to sell it to the public." But panel member and state Rep.
