What a fantastic prison sentence calculator. My husband is going to prison for 7 years for check fraud and we are hoping he gets out early with good time.
Thanks Sherlyn. Cheers to you for staying by his side during these tough times. Yes, the prison sentence calculator is an invaluable tool for both the punished and the victim of crime. The punished can see when they get out with good time behavior so quite possibly they simply do their time and act accordingly. For the victim it shows when the person that harmed or stole from them may be getting out of prison. We at JailGuide wish you the best.
I am wondering if you would be interested in having my firm make this into an iPhone app for you? If you have time please contact us at your convenience. We would definitely either make you an app and split profits or buy this outright – please let us know.
I tried the prison sentence calculator and it seems it was off by about 3 months. Is there a difference in new laws or regulations you havent programmed into the calculator. My state of Michigan has a set period of time for good time behavior, please look into it.
