Q: Can an inmate that’s already sentenced in Mississippi Department of Corrections , get released on early parole ?
Inmate parole date is 10/26 as of now. He is at a Community Work Center operated by the state dept of corrections. He is working everyday and doing A&D classes. Never received a write up. Will his parole date change to anything sooner
A:
It is possible for an inmate to be released on parole earlier than their scheduled release date, but this decision is typically made by the Mississippi Department of Corrections Parole Board based on a variety of factors, including the inmate's behavior while incarcerated, the nature of the offense, and other relevant factors.
If the inmate has a parole eligibility date of 10/26, this means that they are eligible to be considered for parole at that time, but there is no guarantee that they will be released on that date or any other specific date. The Parole Board will review the inmate's case and make a decision based on the relevant factors.
It is important to note that the decision to grant parole is not solely based on good behavior or participation in programs while incarcerated, although these factors may be taken into account. The Parole Board must also consider the safety of the community and the likelihood that the inmate will successfully reintegrate into society.
If you have questions about the specific case or the parole process, you may want to contact the Mississippi Department of Corrections or speak with an attorney who specializes in criminal law.
