Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan
Truth in Sentencing
My brother was sentenced under ''Truth In Sentencing'' to 2.5 years for 2 counts of CSC 2nd degree. He has been flopped 3 times, and has never had a ticket...why is he still incarcerated? They told him that he has a negative history of social and family interactions. Unfortunately you are not able to chose your family nor change your history. What can I do to help him come home?

Re: Truth in Sentencing
Your brother was NOT sentenced to 2.5 years for two counts of CSC second degree.
Your brother was sentenced to 2.5 years to 15 years for his sex crimes.
His attorney should be able to assist him in preparing for his next parole hearing.

He has to complete the sex offenders program before he gets out and the waiting list is long.
There are no simple answers to parole questions.
