Parole Review

If you are recommended for a parole grant, the time frame within which you shall be released, as established by the chairperson of the Parole Commission, shall be reflected in the grant.
GENERAL REASONS FOR ACTION TAKEN
1. You have NOT served sufficient time for punishment.
2. Your institutional conduct has been satisfactory.
3. Your program participation has NOT been satisfactory.
4. You have developed an adequate plan, but will need Agent's verification.
5. Release at this time would involve an unreasonable risk to the public.
PAROLE COMMISSION COMMENTS
You have served 17 years of a 34 year sentence structure for Armed Robbery (Masked), and Poss FA by Felon. This case carries PMR status. The offense occurred in Aug 1994, and involved you approaching a female on the street, holding a gun to her neck and demanding her purse. You had a bandana around your face. You were on parole at the time of this offense for OVWOC (VOP). Offense history dates back to 1990 and reflects similar OVWOC offenses as well as a Robbery offense plead down to Theft from Person with periods of community supervision that ultimately led to revocation. Needless to say, past adjustment on supervision has been problematic. You declined to discuss the dynamics of the robbery, due to pending legal action. Let it be noted that you were originally sentenced to 30 years on this matter, but your sentence was vacated and you were resentenced to 28 years on count one and 6 years CS on count two. During this incarceration, you have struggled with conduct, which is reflected in the multiple MR extensions that extended your MR date by over 3 years. To your credit, your conduct has improved with no major reports in over 4 years. This is encouraged to continue. As far as programming is concerned, you are enrolled in Vocational Education, but reported struggling with the math component. You obtained your HSEU, and remain in need of Anger Management. Utilizing your time well, will assist in determining risk reduction for consideration for reduced security; and the Commission endorses consideration for reduced security. Residence plan lists to temporarily live with a friend in Prairie du Chien, and then transfer to Madison. This would require two area transfers and may not be realistic. Further development of a comprehensive, stable release plan will be necessary when more timeframe appropriate. In the meantime, continued confinement is necessary to address punishment, and also allow for continued improved conduct, eventual transition through reduced security to complete your remaining program need, and demonstrate further risk reduction for opportunities in the community as determined by the site at a reduced security setting.
