Santa Fe state parole board chairman Antonio Rivera told the Legislative Finance Committee that a civil award of 48000 to a rape victim by a paroled prisoner will affect parole practices. He noted future determinant sentencing may reduce board size and that four more prisons may be needed. Rivera said the case prompts warnings to employers about hiring paroled violators and discussed limits on information release pending AG opinions.
