“[A] person convicted of any felony offense involving the use or exhibition of a deadly weapon ... if committed while the person is on probation for a conviction ... or parole, work furlough or any other release or escape from confinement for conviction of a felony offense shall be sentenced to life imprisonment and is not eligible for suspension or commutation of sentence, probation, pardon, parole, work furlough or release from confinement on any other basis ... until the person has served not less than twenty-five years.”
