Overview
This bill amends the ‘Earn Your Way Out’ Act to expand the list of crimes ineligible for administrative parole release. Specifically, it adds human trafficking, sexual extortion, aggravated arson, endangering the welfare of a child, child pornography, leader of a drug trafficking network, maintaining a narcotics production facility, manufacturing or distributing narcotics in the first degree, soliciting or supporting terrorism, leader of a firearms trafficking network, animal cruelty, and any first-degree crime not already listed. This means inmates convicted of these offenses will not be eligible for automatic release on parole at their first parole eligibility date.
