There was a time when a convict released on parole wasn’t allowed to imbibe in alcohol,

But... this is a time when felons EN MASSE were released from prison to "keep them from getting infected by the coronavirus". Do you think there was any instruction given to them or that all of them were assigned parole officers ?

I'm not saying it couldn't be done. I'm asking if it is even practical.

"I'm not saying it couldn't be done. I'm asking if it is even practical."

By law, they would have had to be given some guidelines prior to being let go, and they probably had to sign a release form attesting to those guidelines. Whatever office was in charge of their release in the various cities, counties, states, are also responsible to know where they are living, and that they are following the rules of their probation. I doubt they'd let them out without requiring them to report to someone on a regular basis. Since they require that of parolees normally, then it would be required of those let out because of the virus.
