it s just easier to transport from those areas than it is from lovelock. this would be another prison that prepares, that does releases. all the release planning and all that would be done at lovelock and it would be the matter of moving him, basically, closer to a place that s easier to transport from. closer to an airport or such like that. okay. and one other question, i m sorry, if one of the things that florida will be considering is whether they want to provide the same types of support and supervision that normally he would have otherwise received in, like, from nevada s probation commission, right? so, if florida does accept him, that means it s off your hands, nevada doesn t have any role, then, once he moves to florida, nevada probation and part doesn t have any role in supervising his release after that.
when eligible. mr. simpson s eligibility date is october 1, 2017, and he may be release from the prison on or after that date once any proposed a proposed replease plans have been approved. the board stated the reasons for granting parole included mr. simpson had no prior conviction or criminal history, he had participated in programs specific to addressing behavior that led to his incarceration, he has stable release plans and community and family support, and the victim in the case testified in support of mr. simpson s release. this case will now be turned over to the division of parole and probation to gather and investigate mr. simpson s proposed release plans. captain arudi and warden bacca indicated they don t have specific statements to make so at this time, i can open it up to questions. interestingly that, you know, you ve already provided us the contact information for florida. so, you were talking about earlier, captain, about the process of, in florida, so have
catherine, nevada s interstate compact commissioner and an employee of the parole and probation division and the warden. the captain and the warden are available to answer questions really to relative to their operational jurisdiction. before i read my statement and answer questions, i would like to take the time to thank the nevada capital police, the carson city sheriff s office with their help with security and crowd control today. i d also like to take the time today to thank the nevada system of higher education and the video conference support for this hearing. lastly, i want though thank and recognize the administrative staff of the nevada parole board who have done a tremendous job of working together to facilitate our activities related to the public and media interests in this case. at 11:55 a.m. this morning, the nevada board of parole officers granted to grant parole to mr. orenthal simpson, effective
that is done and his intentions of what he wants to do, should he make parole, is part of that parole report. to the extent that he has to check in or with a parole or probation supervisor from time to time after his release, would he be doing that in florida or would he have to come back to nevada for that. so, when he s under supervision by florida, as a courtesy supervision for nevada sure. sorry about that. yes, so, when he when florida s providing the courtesy supervision of mr. simpson s case, he would report to a florida probation officer. or parole officer in this case. if anything went wrong, you know, he did something he did something that potentially was a violation of the probation, ultimately he would end up answering for that back in nevada-corre nevada. correct. so if his actions were to lead to a violation and florida would submit that violation to us, ultimately, if he were to be returned for revocation, he
