Parolees can have their parole continued with a reprimand in their file for a technical violation or for committing a new crime, or a combination of the two. For FY22 (July 2021-June 2022), there was a total of 78 parole violations that resulted in a contiunuation of parole. Of the total continuations in FY22, 48.7% had committed a new crime (can include a technical violation as well) and 51.3% had committed technical violations.
It is difficult to identify a trend in this data as the COVID-19 pandemic has postponed many violation hearings for alleged new crimes due slow activity within the court system. Many new alleged crime violations are complex and it’s best to wait for court adjudication first in lieu of holding mini-criminal trials during a parole violation hearing.
