While Courtney Bryant was not on parole, he was in a release program known as transitional supervision. Bryant is accused of the Aug. 27 Western Avenue shooting of Eugene Jones. And… Bryant was initially sentenced in 2001 to 10 years in prison, suspended after 30 months served and three years probation, for second-degree robbery. • In May 2004 he violated his probation and was sentenced to seven years in prison, suspended after eight months served and three years probation. • On Nov. 3, 2005, Bryant’s probation was revoked, and he was sentenced to two years in prison. • On Nov. 3, 2006, after serving one year in prison, Bryant was released from Gates Correctional Institution in Niantic.
