This resolution recognizes that the compassionate release of incarcerated peoplesuch as elderly individuals experiencing infirmities, in addition to individuals in terminal or severe medical circumstancescan promote individual and community-wide justice while preserving public safety and realizing fiscal efficiencies. The resolution acknowledges the merit of immediately considering early release of all statutorily eligible incarcerated persons and commutation for individuals who would be eligible if Delaware were to have a stronger model of compassionate release, encourages all stakeholders involved in such consideration to assist, and pledges that the General Assembly will explore and consider potential modifications to Delawares early-release framework.
