Oklahoma Pardon & Parole Board Recommends Largest Single-Day Commutation In US History

Citizens cheered as the Pardon & Parole Board
moved to release well over 400 prisoners.

OKLAHOMA CITY – The Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board voted unanimously Friday to recommend the sentences of 527 state inmates be commuted, the largest such action in state and national history. The office of Governor Kevin Stitt will process the recommendations by end of day Friday for final approval.

“This is a historical day for criminal justice reform in Oklahoma, as we send the largest single day commutation of sentences in our nation’s history to the governor’s desk,” said Steven Bickley, Executive Director of the Pardon and Parole Board. “With this vote, we are fulfilling the will of Oklahomans. However, from day one, the goal of this project has been more than just the release of low level, non-violent offenders, but the successful reentry of these individuals back into society. It has been a moving experience to see our state and community partners help connect our inmates with the resources they need for a successful reentry and I thank Governor Stitt, DOC Director Scott Crow, and the many local nonprofits, churches, and job creators that stepped up to ensure these inmates have every opportunity for success.” 

The Top Ten Tour Continues..

Oklahomans,

Our people are the heart and strength of our state.

This is why my administration has made it a priority to get outside of the State Capitol and into your communities through what we are calling our Top Ten Cabinet Tour. 

At each stop on the Top Ten Cabinet Tour we are meeting with Oklahomans, listening to their ideas and concerns, and seeing firsthand the exciting things going on in their cities and towns. 

Keep an eye out for more details on our Facebook and Twitter pages, and join us as we work to make Oklahoma a Top Ten state!   

We look forward to seeing you soon,

Governor J. Kevin Stitt
