Oklahoma could save at least a half million dollars yearly by using a small team of trained investigators to supervise paroled convicts. Gov. Marland's pardon and parole attorney Fred Cunningham argued for supervision to reduce costs from feeding and guarding paroled offenders while aiding rehabilitation and independence.
