H.B. 61: A Bill to Authorize the Pardons and Paroles Board to Commute a Habitual Offender's Sentence of Life Without Parole to Life Imprisonment Under Certain Circumstances
Sponsored By: Brewbaker
This bill would allow the Parole Board to commute sentences of life without parole to life after habitual offenders served 20 years if they were never convicted of crimes including murder, sex offenses, inflicting physical injury in the commission of a crime, and other crimes. It would likely result in the release of about 80 non-violent offenders who served at least 20 years.
