Prison: community supervision: eligibility.

Existing law, the Postrelease Community Supervision Act of 2011, requires, with exceptions, that all persons released from prison on and after October 1, 2011, shall be subject to postrelease community supervision for a period not exceeding 3 years. Existing law provides that this provision does not apply to a person released from prison after having served a prison term for a serious or violent felony, a 3rd strike violation, a crime where the person was classified as a High Risk Sex Offender, or any crime where the person is required to undergo treatment by the State Department of Mental Health as a condition of parole. Under existing law, these inmates would be released to the parole supervision of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. This bill would make the provisions for community supervision inapplicable to any person released from prison who has a prior conviction for a serious or violent felony, a crime for which the person received a 3rd strike, or a crime that resulted in the person being classified as a High Risk Sex Offender.
