Thousands of inmates released under new sentencing guidelines

[mrjarrell]

Why am I not surprised that they quickly ran out of simple drug offenders and now are releasing some pretty violent and dangerous individuals. So, here are some of the "non-violent" drug prisoners of the California "gulag" that are now back out on the streets. The DA wrote opposition letters on each of these and more, but it is more important to allow these people out than to protect the public.



and 44 others.

This early release program is totally unrelated to the one listed in the original posting. This is about the California program that was instituted some time ago to address their issues with prison overcrowding. It's been ongoing for years and has had problems with releasing inmates who shouldn't have been released. Equating the two is disingenuous.

Thank you for clarifying that.

If we all still had the rope in the oak tree downtown we wouldn't have any of these problems!
