Proposal Would Allow Three-strikers To Apply For Early Release

(Olympia, WA)  --  A move is on in the Washington Legislature to draft a bill that could lead to early release for "three-strikes" prisoners.  Under the proposal, offenders sentenced to life in prison under Washington's three-strikes law would be allowed to petition for early release after serving 20 years.  Such offenders would not have been convicted of a sex offense or aggravated first-degree murder.  Those petitions would be heard by a so-called "second-look review board."
