Speaking as a former inmate, I can say that "I've learned my lesson and I am very aware that the decisions facing me going forward will be made with a lot of contemplation about potential consequences." This was an expensive lesson for me, as time and money were wasted. I'm hoping that my recollection of being locked up is enough to make sure that all my decisions are good ones.

With no money and no friend or family member able to help, it leaves only the government programs that are reserved for welfare-type citizens. He can get health care through Medicare - recommend getting a health check-up and while there, explain his financial/housing situation to the doctor (only, no one else in the office) and ask what programs indigent people can get assistance from.

Inmates are given a review when 17-19 months remain on their custody term. At that point, halfway house eligibility through the Second Chance Act is considered. Inmates may serve the last ten percent of their sentence (up to 6 months) at a halfway house/home incarceration. Inmates can serve half of this period at the halfway house and half of this period on home incarceration. Inmates may be found ineligible for halfway house placement for reasons such as poor

Your inmate's correct release date would normally be given to them by their counselor. If they have given him the full time release date it could mean that is the actual date.

Offenders may be sent there directly from sentencing, or sent there if they have proven an inability to handle probation on the outside, or have been sent there as a result of direct violation or revocation of their parole.

Your power-of-attorney has nothing to do with anything related to his prison sentence. Parole eligibility is determined by the sentencing language from the judge. You may call the facility and ask to speak to the inmate's counselor or case manager to see if they have any information that they will share.
