Parole eligibility is a matter of sentencing provided it is not specifically mentioned in the plea agreement. Keep in mind that the written plea agreement is only as binding as the courts allow. If the judge agrees to the plea as it is written, it is binding, so get the language you want into it before it goes to court.

When is Mark Mangelsdorf eligible for parole?
No. Even though the DA who prosecuted him supported his request for parole. This was part of the plea agreement when he pled guilty - that, as long as he was a model prisoner, the DA would support him at parole time. But he had only served five of this 10-20 year term in May of 2011, and his request was denied. He won't be up for parole again until he has served another five years, which will be a total of 10. And that will be in 2016. He will be 56 years old.
