Governor Ducey signs emergency 70% SB1310 Some inmates released tomorrow.

            Governor Doug Ducey signed SB1310 June 8 , 2019.
The bill seen as an emergency bill deals with those who were convicted for possession or use of marijuana or dangerous narcotics. Not to include the transport or manufacture of. The law states that seen as an emergency bill that means it takes effect the day after it is signed by the governor.
             A statement received by Arizona Department of Corrections Director Charles Ryan , said " that some inmates will be released tomorrow. Others will have to wait 15 days ". The bill reads that earned credit days will change from every 6 days served 1 day is given , to 7 days served 3 days given towards early release. Which equates to 70% time served instead of the 85% time served requirement.
             If our readers remember HB2270 died early and didn't have a chance and essentially was poorly written by legislators.
