SB1335

Missouri SB1335 establishes parole eligibility for inmates aged 65 or older with no first-degree murder convictions.

Missouri SB1335 amends Chapter 217 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri by adding a new section. This section mandates that any offender who is incarcerated, aged 65 or older, and without a first-degree murder conviction must receive a parole hearing. Eligibility for parole requires the offender to have served time for self-rehabilitation, a workable parole plan, a low institutional risk factor score, and a low mental health score. Parolees will be supervised for at least five years or until their sentence ends.
