Title: Denying Parole at First Eligibility: How Much Public Safety Does It Actually Buy? A Study of Prisoner Release and Recidivism in Michigan

Summary: This report examined 76,721 cases of Michigan prisoners sentenced to indeterminate terms after 1981 and released for the first time from 1986 through 1999. The report answers two questions: (1) Does continuing to incarcerate people who have served their minimum sentences actually improve public safety and, if so, to what extent and at what cost?; (2) Specifically, does denying parole at the minimum only to release a person a year or two thereafter have a substantial impact on re-offense rates?
