Early Release for non violent drug offenders in Minnesota??

dalarome · #1 11-21-2016, 09:06 PM

Has anyone heard anything about inmates being released early on non violent drug offenses? My man is in Faribault right now and many of the inmates are talking about it but I can't find any information about it. Of course his case worker says there is no truth to it at all. Plz help.

I know you can do bootcamp it shaves 48 months off sentence but they must qualify

How do they qualify?

There sentence has to be long enough and crime has to be non violent

I'm in Mn. Person has nonviolent drug convictions. He already went thru boot camp once, was released but violated probation & sent back to prison. Could they qualify again?

Yeah it's pretty tough I actually met my girl while call charade it and she gets out and October how long has he been in and how much time does he have and how do you deal with it any advice

I met my guy a year ago.he was honest about his background..were both older..he is in ( maybe) 2020.. hope hopefully he can be released sooner..it's hard dealing with a situation with someone you care about incarcerated..he has money of his own & I take care of that end. He calls and I do go visit him..visiting is difficult, it's hard on him..he is searched before & after each visit.quite humiliating I can only imagine.i always try to stay upbeat and & we joke around a lot.need humor to deal with it & paitience

Yeah the visits are definitely the hardest I'm from Florida luckily I drive a truck so I get to see her a lot I plan on moving up there when she gets out and she calls me everyday I didn't think I would fall in love with her but I did

She's getting out October of this year? It's good you can visit often.i go once a month but I'd go more if he wanted me too. He should be "outside the fence" in June then it will be easier to visit. He will be in a different housing area.im looking forward to that.i met my guy where I work, we started talking & after a few months had coffee dates, then dinner dates, then started a relationship.ive never been in a situation like this before & cant believe I still am.he told me to walk away but I chose to stay. I don't know what will happen when he gets out. I didn't think I'd fall for this guy but I have. I only have one friend that knows about him.

Jaxjags84 · #12 03-12-2017, 03:10 AM

Yeah she gets out October this year and it's the same way with me a lot of friends don't approve how old are you if you don't mind me asking I'm 32 she is 29

You two have your whole lives ahead of you!
