MS SB2490

Establishes mandatory conditions (no new offenses, sex offender registration if required) and discretionary conditions for probation, parole, and post-release supervision based on offender risk and needs assessment.

Reduces maximum term of post-release supervision from 5 years to 2 years and maximum term of supervised probation from 5 years to 2 years.

Restricts parole and probation revocation to cases where offender is indicted for new felony offense committed while on supervision or where graduated sanctions have been imposed within previous 6 months and additional sanctions cannot secure compliance.

Requires Department of Corrections to impose graduated sanctions (warnings, increased reporting, treatment, brief incarceration up to 2 days) before requesting judicial modification or revocation of supervised release.

Requires field officers to impose sanctions according to standardized grid based on offender's risk level, violation severity, and prior violations; limits jail incarceration as sanction to 2 days maximum and 2 times per month.
