For the second year in a row, Colorado Springs’ notorious is being seriously considered for parole. 
, heard by two panel members earlier in October, is being moved to full Colorado State Parole Board consideration. The board has a week to 60 days to decide whether to continue Reali’s sentence, said Mark Fairbairn, spokesman for the Colorado Department of Corrections.
This is the second time Reali’s case will come before the full parole board, which also considered her release last year before deciding to continue her sentence.Her two previous pleas for release – in 2014 and 2015 – were .
Reali, 55, was convicted of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in the 1990 killing of her lover’s wife, Dianne Hood. She received a life sentence, but then-Gov. Bill Ritter commuted her sentence in 2011, making her eligible for parole.
Through the Intensive Supervision Parole Inmate program, Reali lives in her own apartment in Denver with a cat and a dog, works at Inside Out Ministries and shares her story with churches and others. She wants to continue those things if granted parole, she said.
“The woman that I have been is the complete opposite of who I was in 1990,” Reali said. “I can’t prove to anybody what my thoughts are. I can only show people who I am by how I act.
“I believe in redemption.”
