Summary

The bill would amend state law so that inmates who have committed capital offenses receive a written case plan within 90 days of admission, outlining required treatment and programming. The plans must include at least two of four program areas—criminal thinking, substance abuse, life skills, or behavioral health—and be reviewed regularly by caseworkers and the Parole Board. The aim is to improve rehabilitation and lower the chance of reoffending after release.
