Bill > S2308

This bill would allow prisoners who committed offenses before their 18th birthday and were sentenced as adults to be eligible for parole after serving at least 15 years of their sentence, with the provision that this change would not delay their parole eligibility if they were already eligible sooner. This new rule would apply to offenses committed on or after January 1, 1991, and would take effect immediately upon passage, meaning it can be applied to past and future cases. Parole refers to the conditional release of an inmate before the full completion of their sentence, allowing them to serve the remainder of their time in the community under supervision.
