Please send e-mails on behalf of Dana Beal to the Idaho parole board. Although he was sentenced to 4.5 months, parole requirements might keep him behind bars until December which is a life threatening sentence to a 79 year old man who needs urgent medical treatment. Please send an email, and please use the subjects provided for maximum impact. Thanks!

Subject: Medical Waiver Request / Parole Plan for Resident Irvin Dana Beal #164571
To the Members of the Commission,
I am writing to provide critical information regarding the parole planning for Irvin Dana Beal (IDOC #164571), currently at the Mountain View Transformation Center. While we understand his parole eligibility date is June 30, 2026, there is deep concern regarding a potential delay until December due to in-prison programming requirements.
At 79 years of age, Mr. Beal has a documented history of severe cardiovascular disease, including a prior heart attack and stroke. It is our professional and humanitarian assessment that his health constitutes an "extraordinary circumstance" under Idaho administrative guidelines.
We respectfully request that the Commission consider a Medical Waiver or Commutation of Programming for any in-prison requirements for the following reasons:
Medical Risk: Extended incarceration through the winter months poses a significant risk to a 79-year-old with his medical profile.
Superior Outpatient Care: A comprehensive medical and rehabilitative plan is already established for him in New York. Releasing him in June allows him to transition immediately to specialized geriatric and cardiac care that is more appropriate for his age than a standard correctional facility program.
Fiscal Responsibility: Transferring Mr. Beal to New York parole supervision in June relieves the State of Idaho of the high costs associated with the long-term medical monitoring of an elderly, non-violent resident.
We ask that the Commission prioritize his Interstate Compact transfer for a June 30th release to ensure he can serve his parole safely under the supervision of the New York Division of Parole.
Sincerely,
[Your Name/Organization]

Subject: Petition for Medical Clemency: Irvin Dana Beal #164571
Dear Governor Little,
I am writing to formally request your consideration for a Medical Clemency or Commutation of Sentence for Irvin Dana Beal (IDOC #164571), who is currently serving a term at the Mountain View Transformation Center in Boise.
Mr. Beal is 79 years old and suffers from significant health complications, including a history of stroke and heart disease. While he is scheduled for parole eligibility in June, administrative and programming delays may extend his incarceration until December 2026. Given his age and physical frailty, we believe that an additional six months of incarceration serves no public safety interest and poses a grave risk to his life.
We request that you exercise your executive authority to commute his remaining custodial time to "time served," effective June 30, 2026, contingent upon his immediate transfer to New York state for parole supervision.
Key considerations for this request:
Non-Violent Status: Mr. Beal’s charges involve non-violent possession, and he has a stable residence and support network waiting for him in New York.
Resource Management: Redirecting state resources away from the medical care of elderly, out-of-state residents allows Idaho to focus its correctional budget on local public safety priorities.
Compassionate Release: At nearly 80 years old, Mr. Beal’s health has declined to a point where continued incarceration is an undue hardship.
We appreciate your dedication to the justice system in Idaho and ask for your compassionate intervention in this time-sensitive medical matter.
Respectfully,
[Your Name/Organization]
