What answers does a parole board member like to hear from a parolee in deciding a prisoners release?
There are certain things the parole board is looking for before a prisoner can be released. They must admit their crimes and show remorse. The panel wants to hear that they have done some soul searching and will be able function in the 'outside world'. They also like to know that the inmate has some kind of plan, where they will live, do the hava a job lined up, ect. And lastly, they want to be reassured that this prisoner will not reoffend. That's a hard one. A large amount of prisoners will reoffend and they want to make sure that the inmate is really ready to face the world outside the prison's walls. Their biggest responsibilty is to protect the public, most take it very seriously.
After someone's parole is revoked how long does the state have to tell that person their sentence?
If you were on parole, then you KNEW what your original sentence was. If your parole was revoked there is no need to tell you how much time you have to serve - it will be the same as your original sentence. UNLESS - your parole was revoked because you committed another offense. THEN - not only will you serve your original sentence your prison time will be increased by whatever the sentence is for your new offense.

How many felons have escaped and killed again?
First of all, all felons are not killers. I am a convicted felon, and I have never so much as gotten into a heated argument in many years. A bank robber is a felon. Some politically famous people are felons (roughly 70% of the US Congress). Some of my best friends are felons. But, to answer your question very few people, especially those convicted of homicide, have escaped from jail, and for the ones who don't get life, they receive sentences of at least 15 years--more likely 25-40--so, the last thing on their minds is killing someone else. The tv shows that propigate these myths are just stories written in an office somewhere
AnswerJust a little insight from the US Department of Justice Bureau of Statistics:According to the National Crime Victimization Survey, the rates for violent crimes(murder, rape and sexual assault, robbery, and assault) have fallen to the lowest point since 2005, and property crime rates (burglary, theft, and motor vehicle theft) continue to decline.
There were 2.5 million people incarcerated in the US in 2004 and that rate has remained level or risen each year since. The total US population comprises only 5% of the total world population, but incarcerated Americans are 25% of the total incarcerated population of the world (and we comment on the human rights violations of other nations).
