It also directs -- but does not require -- the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) to consider giving federal prisoners longer stays in halfway houses, and authorizes funds for a very limited test program for elderly prisoners. The "second chance" the bill refers to applies almost exclusively to people leaving prison -- it does not give shorter sentences to people already in prison. (PRWeb Apr 10, 2008)
