Corrections: parole; parole board interview of prisoner serving sentence for first degree murder or sentence of imprisonment for life without parole; modify. Amends sec. 44 of 1953 PA 232 (MCL 791.244).

Michigan Senate Bill 882, introduced by Senator Sylvia Santana on March 19, 2026, proposes changes to the parole process for individuals serving sentences for first-degree murder or life imprisonment without parole. The bill amends Section 44 of the 1953 Public Act 232 (MCL 791.244) to require that a member of the parole board interview such prisoners after 10 calendar years of their sentence and subsequently as deemed appropriate by the parole board. This process continues until the prisoner is granted a reprieve, commutation, or pardon by the governor, or until the prisoner passes away.
