Arizona prison newbie release date questions

[Kelizabeth1]

Okay so I am very very new to all this so bare with me!

My boyfriend has been locked up since october 31st 2010 he was at Durango until he got sentenced to prison december 13 2010. They said his release date would be 2/12/2011 but they also gave him 44 credit days so do those credit days go towards his release..like will he get released early..cause I also heard that they do 85% and then they get let out..It says his release date is 2/12/2011 but then they said he will get released on community supervision. I have been asking some people about it and they said since his sentence is so low and its his first time they usually let you out like 2 weeks after you get placed into a prison. Hes in Alhambra Reception area right now and should be moved within the next week to a prison.

ALSO I have another question..when he get released does he have to be released to his family or can I just pick him up..cause I know he is going to call me when he does get released cause we talked about it but I was wondering if they contact his family on him getting released or if he just calls when they let him go. ALSO do I need to bring him clothes or will they give him some??

thanks so much!
