Conway emphasizes that the indefinite nature of IPP sentences leads to hopelessness and deteriorating mental health among prisoners, ultimately preventing their rehabilitation and reintegration into society.
At a conference, Conway stated, "People on IPPs will give up hope. If they are finally released, what is left for them? The worsening mental health of IPP prisoners ensures they will not be released."
Having recently escaped the confines of the IPP system, Conway highlights the need for urgent reforms to help over 2,600 prisoners still trapped under these crushing terms, emphasizing a humane and rehabilitative approach.
Conway describes his sense of surreal freedom after being released from his IPP sentence, expressing deep concerns for others still facing life sentences without any hope for release.
