The coronavirus is keeping Texas prisoners who've been approved for parole behind bars

Title (Dublin Core)

The coronavirus is keeping Texas prisoners who've been approved for parole behind bars

Description (Dublin Core)

When people are granted parole they often are not released immediately and are required to complete programming or set up things outside of the facility for when they are released. It appears thousands of people incarcerated in Texas are being held in prison because transfers to other facilities where these programs take place are not happening in an effort to slow the spread of Covid. This article gives the details and the difference between what incarcerated people are saying and those in charge.
