Panel advances restoration bill for Lawrence Daniels after review of sentencing and discharge history
Summary
Chair outlined SB 3396 for Lawrence Daniels of Lowndes County: a 2002 conviction for common grand larceny, probation violation leading to MDOC custody in 2004, release to supervision and discharge in May 2008; the bill was advanced by voice vote.
The chair presented Senate Bill 3396 for Lawrence Daniels, recounting a 2002 conviction for common grand larceny in Jefferson Davis Circuit Court, an initial probation sentence, a subsequent probation violation that resulted in five years in MDOC custody beginning July 8, 2004, and release to supervised release with a final discharge in May 2008. The chair told the committee the nominee completed all terms and had "conducted himself as a law abiding citizen" since release.
Senator Hickman, who arrived during this item, was invited to add anything from the packet; the chair noted MDOC attachments (time sheets and records) were included. The bill was then advanced by voice vote with the chair recording "the ayes have it."
