FOR INMATES WHO COMMITTED CRIMES AS JUVENILES, THEIR YOUTH MUST BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION IN PAROLE DETERMINATIONS (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department affirmed Supreme Court’s ruling sending the matter back for a de novo parole interview. Petitioner was 17 when he committed murder and is now 50.

… [W]e deem it appropriate to affirm the judgment that annulled the Parole Board’s determination and remitted the matter to the Parole Board for a de novo interview before a different panel. The petitioner is entitled to a meaningful opportunity for release in which the Parole Board considers, inter alia, his youth at the time of the commission of the crimes and its attendant circumstances … . Matter of Putland v New York State Dept. of Corr. & Community Supervision, 2018 NY Slip Op 00837, Second Dept 2-7-18
