Answer: It’s possible. The Board has a duty to listen to victims if they call and want to talk to the Board.
That sometimes is scheduled in advance, or the victim can write a letter recommending release or recommending that the inmate be denied parole. Who will know if the victim has written a letter? Only the parole board. Whatever goes into the parole board’s file is secret and restricted by law, so you cannot get a copy of whatever anybody says once they have written the Board.
