The North Carolina Post-Release Supervision and Parole Commission has approved the parole of Jeff Tucker, who was convicted of second-degree murder in Randolph County Superior Court. Tucker was sentenced to life imprisonment after his conviction on October 17, 1990.
According to the Commission, Tucker’s parole will take place under the Mutual Agreement Parole Program (MAPP). The program is described as a scholastic and vocational initiative involving an agreement between the Commission, the State Prison System, and the offender. The release date for Tucker is set for March 2, 2026.
The Commission clarified that while North Carolina’s Structured Sentencing law eliminated parole for crimes committed on or after October 1, 1994, it remains responsible for granting parole to offenders sentenced under earlier guidelines.
“If you have questions concerning the parole process, please contact the Parole Commission at (919) 716-3010,” stated the North Carolina Post-Release Supervision & Parole Commission.
