Parole denied for Antonio Green despite panel acknowledgment of progress; one member had voted to grant conditionally
Summary
The parole board denied parole for Antonio Green (DLC 704752) after split discussion: one member favored a conditional grant tied to prerelease, but two members voted to deny, citing the nature of the offense and short remaining time.
The Committee on Parole considered and ultimately denied parole for Antonio Green (DLC 704752) at a Caddo Corrections hearing on Oct. 22. The panel reviewed Green’s record, facility statements and supporters’ pledges of housing and employment.
Green acknowledged the offense in his statement; family members spoke in his support and said they had housing and employment prospects available. Facility staff described Green as a model inmate with trustee work and no major disciplinary issues over the roughly three years he had been at the facility.
Board member Jerry LeDoux moved for a conditional grant that would require Green to complete prerelease before release to ensure supervised reentry; LeDoux said she wanted a parole agent to observe Green in the community for at least eight months. Another board member (Prater) argued the nature of the crime (molestation-related plea) and the sentencing structure counseled caution and recommended denial given the short time remaining on Green’s sentence. After discussion the panel voted 2–1 to deny parole; the board recorded the denial and advised Green to continue programming.
Ending: The panel denied parole; the hearing record shows one member voted to conditionally grant after prerelease but the majority denied the request.
