“The board as well as the parole office do not have any jurisdiction or say in how [Corrections] enforces its policies. Therefore, to clear matters related to your denial entry, it was not the chairman and the board or the parole office that made the decision,” Guerrero said in an e-mail to the Variety.
Guerrero said “outside visitors must be identified as to who are going to enter the facility to attend the hearing with names submitted to [Corrections] for their approval.”
He added, “My recommendation is you need to meet with the commissioner to get more information on [department] rules and regulations policy with visitors’ entry or other concerns.”
Corrections had yet to reply to the inquires of this reporter.
Asked about the outcome of the parole hearing, Guerrero said: “We are currently awaiting for the board’s decision. I will provide you the board decision once I have access to the decision.”
Guerrero said the chairman of the board, Ramon B. Camacho, and the other members earlier decided that in light of safety and cost considerations, transporting inmates from the Corrections facility to the Board of Parole office on Capital Hill for a hearing “was not beneficial.”
On Thursday, the Board of Parole conducted a hearing, starting at 9 a.m., on the application for parole of seven inmates: Sanito Estrera, Loreto H. Rodriguez, Shawn C. Appleby, Sayuri Aldan Paulis, Bonifacio M. Camacho, Ming Nan Jin and Jesse Mafnas Babauta.
