A bill designed to raise the minimum age for elder parole continues to move through the state legislature. AB 2727 would raise the parole age for those convicted of violent sex crimes to 65-years-old. It’s currently 50. The bill is getting support after a pair of high-profile cases gained statewide attention. Two men who were given long sentences after being convicted of molesting multiple children were both nearly released. One man is now charged with new crimes and the other man’s parole is being reconsidered. AB 2727 is now headed to the Appropriations Committee.
