Wash. Admin. Code § 381-60-190
It shall be the policy of the board that any individual who has ever been convicted of murder first degree, murder second degree, manslaughter, negligent homicide, vehicular homicide, or any other crime resulting in a loss of life shall be referred to the full board for a determination as to whether or not such individual is parolable. Any affirmative vote must be by the majority of the board. A board panel may schedule a parolability meeting in such cases but will defer any decision until the full board reviews the case and the panel recommendation.
When a loss of life case has a waivable mandatory minimum term, the full board vote on the waiver must be a distinct and separate vote from the full board vote regarding parolability.
