Bill > SB0296

This bill amends the Unified Code of Corrections to require the Prisoner Review Board to provide more detailed information in its annual report to the Director of Corrections. Specifically, the bill mandates that the annual report must include a comprehensive breakdown of C-Number Cases and Good Conduct Requests, detailing how many were considered, granted, and denied. The report must categorize these cases by offense type, with special emphasis on murder and offenses involving sexual conduct or sexual penetration. Additionally, the report must specify whether the victims in these cases were under 18 years of age or were members of law enforcement. The bill also requires that the annual report be published on the Board's website by March 1 each year and be transmitted to the Governor for submission to the Legislature, thereby increasing transparency about the Prisoner Review Board's decision-making process and providing more detailed insights into its work.
