Management software cannot work out sentencing laws

Arizona Department of Corrections whistleblowers claim that hundreds of incarcerated people who should be eligible for release are being held in prison because the inmate management software cannot interpret current sentencing laws.

Employees said they have been raising the issue internally for more than a year, but prison administrators have not acted to fix the software bug.

The sources said Chief Information Officer Holly Greene and Deputy Director Joe Profiri have been aware of the problem since 2019. The Arizona Department of Corrections confirmed there is a problem with the software.
