This week’s episode of Federal Prison Authority Presents: Around the Block has Bruce and Susan reviewing new FSA and Compassionate Release changes in the federal system. Susan discusses the changes, particularly pertaining to housing and using contractors for a variety of services. One point of contention is the process of coding and calculating hours. Susan thoroughly explains the ins and outs and how the system could be improved. Halfway through the program, Susan reviews past experiences with coding and the technology side the FSA used. Susan and Bruce then transition to a batch of newly released policies and explore the implications of these new laws. The main focus is how these new policies affect inmates’ time credits. This episode covers the new changes in the Bureau. Join us next week as they continue to navigate these new policies!
