    (g) The notice required under subsection (c) must specify whether the prisoner is being discharged, is being released on parole, is being released on lifetime parole, is having a parole release hearing, is having a parole violation hearing, or has escaped. The notice must contain the following information:

    (j) If parole is denied, the parole board shall give the person written notice of the denial and the reasons for the denial. The parole board may not parole a person if it determines that there is substantial reason to believe that the person:
        (1) will engage in further specified criminal activity; or
        (2) will not conform to appropriate specified conditions of parole.
    (k) If parole is denied, the parole board shall conduct another parole release hearing not earlier than five (5) years after the date of the hearing at which parole was denied. However, the board may conduct a hearing earlier than five (5) years after denial of parole if the board:
        (1) finds that special circumstances exist for the holding of a hearing; and
        (2) gives reasonable notice to the person being considered for parole.
    (l) The parole board may parole a person who is outside Indiana on a record made by the appropriate authorities of the jurisdiction in which that person is imprisoned.
    (m) If the board is considering the release on parole of an offender who is serving a sentence of life in prison, a determinate term of imprisonment of at least ten (10) years, or an indeterminate term of

imprisonment with a minimum term of at least ten (10) years, in addition to the investigation required under subsection (b), except as provided in subsection (n), the board may order and consider a community investigation, which may include an investigation and report that substantially reflects the attitudes and opinions of:
        (1) the community in which the crime committed by the offender occurred;
        (2) law enforcement officers who have jurisdiction in the community in which the crime occurred;
        (3) the victim of the crime committed by the offender, or if the victim is deceased or incompetent for any reason, the victim's relatives or friends; and
        (4) friends or relatives of the offender.
If the board reconsiders for release on parole an offender who was previously released on parole and whose parole was revoked under section 10 of this chapter, the board may use a community investigation prepared for an earlier parole hearing to comply with this subsection. However, the board shall accept and consider any supplements or amendments to any previous statements from the victim or the victim's relatives or friends.
    (n) The board shall conduct the community investigation described in subsection (m) if:
        (1) the person was convicted of a crime of violence (as defined in IC 35-50-1-2); or

    (b) The parole board may also adopt, under IC 4-22-2, additional conditions to remaining on parole and require a parolee to satisfy one (1) or more of these conditions.

        (1) retained by the parolee;
        (2) forwarded to any person charged with the parolee's

supervision; and

            (B) the parolee's place of employment; and

        (1) periodically undergo a laboratory chemical test (as defined in IC 14-15-8-1) or series of tests to detect and confirm the presence of a controlled substance (as defined in IC 35-48-1-9); and
        (2) have the results of any test under this subsection reported to the parole board by the laboratory.

            (C) prohibit a parolee who is a sex offender convicted of a sex offense (as defined in IC 35-38-2-2.5) from residing within one (1) mile of the victim of the sex offender's sex offense unless the sex offender obtains a waiver under IC 35-38-2-2.5;
            (D) prohibit a parolee who is a sex offender from owning, operating, managing, being employed by, or volunteering at any attraction designed to be primarily enjoyed by children less than sixteen (16) years of age;

                (i) to the search of the sex offender's personal computer at any time; and
                (ii) to the installation on the sex offender's personal computer or device with Internet capability, at the sex offender's expense, of one (1) or more hardware or software systems to monitor Internet usage; and
            (F) prohibit the sex offender from:
                (i) accessing or using certain web sites, chat rooms, or instant messaging programs frequented by children; and
                (ii) deleting, erasing, or tampering with information on the sex offender's personal computer with intent to conceal an activity prohibited by item (i).
The parole board may not grant a sexually violent predator (as defined in IC 35-38-1-7.5) or a sex offender who is an offender against children under IC 35-42-4-11 a waiver under subdivision (2)(B) or (2)(C). If the parole board allows the sex offender to reside within one thousand (1,000) feet of school property under subdivision (2)(B), the parole board shall notify each school within one thousand (1,000) feet of the sex offender's residence of the order.
    (h) The address of the victim of a parolee who is a sex offender convicted of a sex offense (as defined in IC 35-38-2-2.5) is confidential, even if the sex offender obtains a waiver under IC 35-38-2-2.5.
    (i) As a condition of parole, the parole board may require a parolee to participate in a reentry court program.
    (j) As a condition of parole, the parole board:
        (1) shall require a parolee who is a sexually violent predator under IC 35-38-1-7.5; and

    (k) As a condition of parole, the parole board may prohibit, in accordance with IC 35-38-2-2.6, a parolee who has been convicted of stalking from residing within one thousand (1,000) feet of the residence of the victim of the stalking for a period that does not exceed five (5) years.
    (l) As a condition of parole, the parole board may prohibit a

parolee convicted of an offense under IC 35-46-3 from owning, harboring, or training an animal, and, if the parole board prohibits a parolee convicted of an offense under IC 35-46-3 from having direct or indirect contact with an individual, the parole board may also prohibit the parolee from having direct or indirect contact with any animal belonging to the individual.
    (m) A parolee may be responsible for the reasonable expenses, as determined by the department, of the parolee's participation in a treatment or other program required as a condition of parole under this section. However, a person's parole may not be revoked solely on the basis of the person's inability to pay for a program required as a condition of parole under this section.

        (1) appear and speak in his own behalf;

            (A) the date an order was issued for the parolee's appearance at a parole revocation hearing; or
            (B) the date of the parolee's arrest on the parole violation warrant.
The revocation hearing shall be conducted by at least one (1) member of the parole board, and the purpose of the hearing is to determine whether a violation of a condition to remaining on parole has occurred and, if so, the appropriate action. In connection with the hearing, the parolee is entitled to those procedural safeguards enumerated in section 9(a) of this chapter. The parolee may offer evidence in mitigation of the alleged violation.
    (b) If it is determined from the evidence presented that the parolee did not commit a parole violation, the charge shall be dismissed.
    (c) If it is determined that the parolee did violate parole, the parole board may continue parole, with or without modifying the conditions, or revoke the parole and order the parolee imprisoned on either a continuous or intermittent basis. If, however, the violation is the commission of a new felony, the parole board shall revoke the parole and order continuous imprisonment.
    (d) The parolee shall be provided with a written statement of the reasons for the action taken under subsection (c).
    (e) Unless good cause for the delay is established in the record of the proceeding, the parole revocation charge shall be dismissed if the revocation hearing is not held within the time established by subsection (a).
