A pre-sentence investigation (PSI) is a report ordered by a judge that provides information about a criminal defendant to help inform sentencing decisions. The PSI process involves an investigation conducted by a probation and parole officer, who gathers information about the defendant's background, criminal history, and other factors relevant to the sentencing decision. The officer may conduct interviews with the defendant, victims, family members, and others, and may review court records, police reports, and other documents. The PSI report may include recommendations for sentencing, such as probation or prison time, and may inform the judge's decision about whether to grant bail or release the defendant pending sentencing. The PSI process is discretionary and varies by state and jurisdiction. However, it is considered an important tool for ensuring fair and just sentencing.
