Paroling, Recommitting, and Supervising Federal Prisoners: Possession and Distribution of Ammunition

Короткий зміст

The U.S. Parole Commission is clarifying its paroling policy guidelines at 28 CFR 2.20 on rating the offenses of unlawful possession and distribution of ammunition. The rule provides an offense severity rating of Category Three for possessing or distributing ammunition of a single caliber. A Category Four rating is to be used when the prisoner has possessed or distributed ammunition of different calibers, or a combination of a single weapon and ammunition that has a caliber different from that of the weapon. The expanded offense examples outlined in this rule will serve the purpose of ensuring a consistent approach to the rating of ammunition possession/distribution offenses.
