In re Flores CA3
In 2008, Flores was convicted of second degree robbery, a violent offense, and sentenced to two years in prison. In 2010, while still on parole for that conviction, Flores fled when an officer tried to make a traffic stop. The ensuing chase covered more than 30 miles, with multiple dangerous traffic infractions. Finally, Flores rammed an occupied police vehicle and tried to run over an officer. For multiple evading and assault convictions, Flores was sentenced to a term of 16 years four months for nonviolent offenses. While incarcerated, Flores had violations for fighting, battery on an officer with an unknown liquid, and resisting an officer. He completed vocational computer training.
Flores sought consideration for parole under Proposition 57. He submitted a letter to the Board, which a hearing officer reviewed and considered. The hearing officer denied parole, finding Flores posed an unreasonable risk of violence to the community.
