Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman says state government is moving forward to restore trust after the prison sentence miscalculation scandal.
The Department of Correctional Services released the investigation of the scandal by the Lincoln law firm Jackson Lewis. A failure to follow a state Supreme Court decision led to the premature release of hundreds of state inmates.
Heineman insists he is fulfilling his promise in wake of the problem, including releasing the report. . .
The report places the most blame on George Green, the former top lawyer for Corrections. He retired rather than be fired.
Also found at fault were records administrator Kyle Poppert, who was suspended; attorney Kathy Blum, who also was suspended; and attorney Sharon Lundgren, who retired. Records Manager Jeannene Douglass also was found at fault. She retired earlier.
Heineman says state Corrections Director Michael Kenney has a tough job ahead. . .
