STOCKTON, Calif. When Stockton Officer Jimmy Inn was gunned down on May 11, his alleged killer had been out of prison for about a year.

According to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Lowe received a 5-year prison sentence out of Los Angeles County for Grand Theft Auto with use of a firearm.
He started his sentence in 2018, but with 820 presentencing credits and 37 post-sentencing credits, he was released on parole supervision in April 2020. According to CDCR, the presentencing credits were given to Lowe by a judge for time served while he awaited trial. Officials said Lowe served his full sentence as prescribed by law.
