Reason for Lori's Re-incarceration

Some recent media reports have contained inaccuracies when explaining Lori's parole revocation. As part of her parole request, Lori informed the court where she would be living if released. The court approved this residence before releasing Lori on parole, and the police inspected it multiple times while she was living there. They were supposed to inspect it before she moved in, but failed to do so. Because this pre-occupancy inspection was not carried out, Lori and Salvador have been sent back to prison.

This is the only reason the appeals court revoked Lori's parole this week.
