Zoom Webinar

The Prisoner Review Board is interested in knowing the view of citizens concerning the possible parole of these residents. Any citizen who would like to express comments on these residents, but is unable to attend one of the Public Comment Sessions, may send a letter to: KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, PRISONER REVIEW BOARD;  714 SW JACKSON STREET, SUITE 300;  TOPEKA, KS 66603.

Residents are required by law to receive a hearing when they become parole eligible. Parole eligibility is not necessarily the same as parole suitability. In determining parole suitability, the Parole Board considers the following ten areas: 1) crime; 2) prior criminal history; 3) program participation; 4) disciplinary record; 5) reports of physical/mental examinations; 6) comments received from the victim, the public and criminal justice officials; 7) prison capacity; 8) input from staff where offender is housed; 9) proportionality to sentence guidelines; and 10) risk factors revealed by any risk assessment.

  • PUBLIC COMMENT SESSION - The Kansas Prisoner Review Board holds a parole hearing with a resident one month prior to the resident's parole eligibility date. Initial parole eligibility dates are based upon a resident's sentence length. Subsequent parole eligibility dates are determined by the Board. The Board holds a public comment session one month prior to a resident's parole hearing. Public comment sessions provide victims and other interested parties with the opportunity to present their views regarding the possibility of a resident's parole. The dates, times and locations of the public comment sessions will be provided to victims by the Kansas Department of Corrections.
  • RELEASE ON PAROLE STATUS - discretionary release of a resident granted by the Kansas Prisoner Review Board after the resident has served at least the minimum sentence required by law. The offender may be returned to incarceration for violating conditions of release.
  • RELEASE ON CONDITIONAL RELEASE STATUS - mandatory supervised release established by law that usually occurs when the resident has served one half of the maximum sentence. The offender can be returned to incarceration for violating conditions of release.
  • RELEASE ON POST-RELEASE STATUS - mandatory supervised release of a resident who has served the incarceration portion of the sentence under provisions of the Sentencing Guidelines Act or whose sentence was converted to a guidelines sentence. The offender can be returned to incarceration for violating conditions of release.
  • EXPIRATION OF SENTENCE - release occurring when a resident has served to the maximum sentence date.
  • DEATH - notification of the death of a resident.
  • ESCAPE - an unauthorized absence by a resident from the correctional facility to which the resident is assigned. Notice of an escape will be provided to victims as soon as possible.
