CENTENNIAL March 2009 Parole Board Decisions

The Parole Board held hearings on March 2, 2009 for eligible inmates at Centennial Correctional Facility (CCF). Again these are only approximates derived from the data available through CDOC. According to the Monthly Population and Capacity Report as of 02-28-09 published by CDOC, CCF has an OPERATIONAL CAPACITY of 336. *Operational capacity includes all beds available for use, including management control units, but excludes emergency double bunking. On Grounds Population was 297, Off Grounds Population of 1. Therefore the total population is 298 inmates at Centennial Correctional Facility. Of those 298 inmates, the Parole Board had approximately 6 scheduled to be heard on March 2, 2009. That is 2.01%.  16.6% or 1 of 6 is GRANTED TENTATIVELY based on an MRD before September 2009. While 33.3% were DENIED or their next parole hearing date was set out to a new date, that is 2 of 6. 33.3% are NO DECISION and have an MRD after September 2009. This is 2of 6 and 1 individual has since been transferred to another facility and there has been no change in his parole hearing date from that of March 2, 2009. Therefore he status is undetermined at this time.

Parole Eligible – person has completed a legislatively mandated percentage of their initial sentence to be eligible to appear before the Parole Board:

No Decision – Since I don’t have the exact definition of this from the Parole Board, I can only surmise from the data and explanations from offenders, this means they have either been “tabled” or been referred for a “full board”. “Full Board” means the offender’s file was referred by the parole board member presiding over the hearing to be reviewed and voted on by the entire board. An offender must receive 4 of 7 yes votes in order to be granted parole.
