Anyone can now go on-line to the TDCJ web page and get their parole review status, last parole decision and next parole review date.

When I was on the prison show “Pacifica Radio Prison Show” July 11, 2014, I was asked if there was something big going on with TDCJ and the Parole Board.  How the host knew I had been working on this, I still don’t know.  I explained that I had been talking to the Parole Board about reflecting parole review information on the TDCJ web page regarding inmate’s review status, parole vote decisions and the next parole review date if denied.  At that time, I had not gotten an agreement from TDCJ as to whether or not they would do this. AMAZINGLY, today all these discussions and work came together.

Gone are the days of family members or loved ones having to contact the Parole Board Office or TDCJ to find out an inmate’s status. It only took two-years for this to become a reality, but I finally convinced them it would make everyone’s lives easier, especially the Parole Board Offices staff members and TDCJ offices.

To check parole information, go the TDCJ website, open up the offender’s information page and click the yellow button entitled parole review information.
