Prison Break Star Lane Garrison to Be Released From Prison

Former Prison Break star Lane Garrison will be getting out of prison a lot earlier than expected.

He’s been in jail since November of 2007, after being found guilty of vehicular manslaughter when he got into a drunk driving accident and his 17-year old passenger Vahagn Setian was killed.

He was expected to serve a 40-month sentence, but according to a spokesman for the California Department of Corrections, he’ll be paroled within the next few weeks because of good behavior credits.

Similar prisoners in Lane’s position are usually released into community residential facilities and assigned to a parole officer somewhere in the state.

For safety reasons, the corrections department does not disclose inmate release dates or the location of the residential facilities they are assigned to in a community.

Obviously if Garrison is released, it will be a lot earlier than was expected of his original sentencing; however, he has been proving himself in prison, working as a peer mentor for other inmates.

Do you think he deserves to get out this early on parole? Or should he have to serve his entire 40-month sentence?

He needs to stay and serve the time he was given. What is the point of sentencing someone to 40 months if they are not going to serve it. Good behavior or not, it's all crap. He needs to stay in jail. I wonder what Vahagn's family is thinking about this...

He's getting a reward for behaving well in prison and it's no different for any other prisoner. It's called incentive!!

He is obviously remorseful, and seems like such a gent, he could be doing more good out in the real world helping and encouraging people not to drink and drive and letting them know the dangers. Im glad hes getting out :)
