One who was released earlier than he should have been -- Sean McLaughlin, who got out in October 2015 -- was picked up on a warrant Wednesday night and is now at the Diagnostic and Evaluation Center. His true release date should have been October 2016. He had been convicted in Madison County on drug, attempted burglary and child abuse charges.

Frakes said a social worker was to meet with McLaughlin Thursday afternoon to start release planning. He said McLaughlin was concerned, anxious and confused when Frakes met with him three or four hours after he was brought in.

"We want to make sure that we meet the full intent of the law, that he serves the sentence that he was given, and at the same time that we make his transition back to the community as successful as possible," Frakes said.

Another, Aaron Finney -- who had been discharged from parole a year ago -- may be able to stay on the outside if a judge says he may. Finney's last conviction was for being a felon in possession of a gun and attempted shoplifting.

And a third, Pablo Briceno, had been in the country illegally, was deported after being released in 2013 and will almost surely not be brought back to complete his sentence. He originally was convicted in Douglas County on drug charges.
