LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan prison officials have found 41 recent cases of felons accused of violating their paroles mistakenly being released because they didn't get a hearing within 45 days of their arrest, officials said Tuesday.
One of those released was Patrick Alan Selepak, who is now charged with killing three people after he was wrongly freed.
Corrections Department Director Patricia Caruso told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday that systemic and individual errors led to the releases.
