Terms for certain conditional release; authorize MDOC to review for certain elderly inmates sentenced to life imprisonment.

SB 2774 would allow Mississippi's Department of Corrections (MDOC) to review and set terms for conditional release for inmates sentenced to life imprisonment for capital murder who are age 65 or older and have served at least 15 years of their sentence. This specifically affects elderly inmates convicted of capital murder, as the current law excludes them from such reviews. The bill amends Mississippi Code § 47-5-139 to add this eligibility, requiring MDOC to determine release terms. The bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and has not become law.
