DieHardBrownsFan Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Under the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, Congress eliminated parole for federal defendants convicted of crimes committed after November 1, 1987. But while federal prisoners can no longer look forward to parole release, they may nevertheless earn reduced terms for good behavior. And, even though federal parole has been all but eliminated, at the time of sentencing, judges can add a period of “supervised release” to be served at the end of a defendant’s prison sentence. (For more on this area of law, see Probation and Supervised Release in Federal Court.) Congress eliminated parole in part because of a fear of unpredictable outcomes. A prisoner given a 20-year sentence could sometimes be released on parole after only a few short years. Even though the parole board had to consider each prisoner’s likelihood of committing another crime, Congress was concerned about the release of potentially dangerous convicts who hadn’t spent enough time behind bars. Time off for Good Behavior Even though federal prisoners sentenced in recent history can’t get parole, they may still earn early release for “exemplary” behavior. For example, progress toward a high-school diploma or the equivalent may shave time off a sentence. Prisoners serving sentences of more than a year but less than life can earn up to 54 days per year off their sentences for good behavior. (18 U.S.C. § 3624(b).) Supervised Release The Sentencing Reform Act didn’t stop judges from sentencing defendants to supervised release, which is served immediately after a prison term. Federal prisoners under this form of supervision can be returned to prison for violations. The federal parole board (discussed more below) is responsible for prisoners who are out on supervised release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHardBrownsFan Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 I remember hearing about that. I don't think its a permanent release though. House arrest type thing until this one day passes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
