Parole Board Ruling Could Free Dozens of Prisoners
A Sedgwick County judge ruled that the Kansas Parole Board must not require unanimous votes for parole in serious-crimes cases, allowing two votes to grant parole. Kenneth Haney, granted parole, had been denied twice on 2-1 votes with dissent by Joan Hamilton. If upheld, the decision may affect many cases and alter board voting dynamics statewide.
