SB 784 - This act eliminates mandatory minimum sentences for those convicted of a felony, except dangerous felons. The act states that a felon must serve a sentence imposed by a judge, but the Board of Probation and Parole shall have discretion to review the sentence and release the offender before the completion of the sentence. Those offenders sentenced under the mandatory minimum sentencing statutes before August 28, 2008, shall have his or her sentence reviewed by the Board. The Board shall have discretion to release such an offender before the end of his or her sentence. This act is identical to SB 468(2007). SUSAN HENDERSON MOORE
