The inmates could be eligible for early release by the end of August -- joining 10,000 prisoners already freed in similar initiatives since the start of the virus crisis, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said.
State Governor Gavin Newsom on Tuesday said the outbreak there was a "deep area of focus and concern" after more than 1,000 inmates tested positive.
Seems about right. What could possibly go wrong?
Guaranteed they do more to contribute to the spread of the virus outside of jail than in.
But if you’re at a costco without a mask you will go to jail. !!!
How is it that this virus has removed the crime they were convicted for? If masks & distancing works, then just do that?
Just let the trash back out on the streets, great idea
Murders and Rapists. But Roger Stone who supposedly lied goes to Jail for 4 yrs. and the Democrats are going to write a law that forbids Trump from Commuting sentences. Doesn’t make much sense!! What about the liar Adam Schiff when does he go to Jail
Emilee Nicolas...When WE asked me to speak at the WE Day in Montreal (2018) they told me that as a charity, they do not pay speakers. I guess as a charity, they put the emphasis on giving their speaker money to those who need it the less, while asking black folks for free labour.
Governor Greasy Gavin Newsom is gonna be in future textbooks as the example of how socialism failed in America
Let me get this straight... Releasing convicted criminals into the public is okay? But banning guns (with the stroke of a pen) from LEGAL gun owners is okay as well?
That's a good size Conservative voting bloc right there.
Don’t know what the benefit is doing that.
They can’t lock me up end of August with this shit going on no way
Irresponsible and dangerous
Unreal
There ya 'go. Good luck and God bless you all. Sincerely...you're gonna need all the help you can get.
Give them masks😡
Lock yr doors, get yr daughters in, hope yr wife has a shotgun beside the bed while the husband goes to work. There isnt going to be a safe place now.
More reasons to keep our border closed
Meanwhile in Ontario:
Prisoners be like
Wait a second wait a second If masks work, why are we letting prisoners out of jail?
The Canadians:
All they have to to is cause a riot and protest and Covid won't show up! Covid 19 likes to party but avoids protests with a vengeance!
Shhh, Don’t tell the Canadians about this in Canada:
Creating more chaos more like.
Breaking: Canada also releases prisoners
The Canadians are in the dark again:
The Dems need to increase their voting base.
Makes perfect sense,helps erode society,bring all the shit down,destroy ourselves,so some criminals dont get the sniffles..
That should work out well
Has John Tory decided to do the same? He usually copies the ideas of his radical left wing US counterparts.
I guess they will be voting Trump.
Probably the safest option. Does twitter translate sarcasm?
And where are they all going to go
Uuuuuuhhhhh what?
Just give them masks, and save the law abiding population from trash.
Wow. Look out USA. WearAMask COVID__19 Crime California
Why Leave em where they belong. Covid can serve justice.
🤔🤔🤔
Sometimes I wonder if the news editors at Canada's national news agencies say their headlines out loud. Maybe the headline should be 'California to release 8,000 more prisoners giving virus fears a priority over violent crime fears'
So we are all told to wear masks ... but prisoners are told ... be free
Yep cuz masks dont work
This is what happens when you vote for left wing democrats. You can take a baseball bat to someones head in CA and walk out of prison the same day. You can sexually abuse a child in CA, and be released the same day.
Wow. That’s gonna work out well!
GET OUT OF CA.!!!!!
But kids can return to school because stores are open!. Happy I live in Canada KEEP THE BORDERS CLOSED! JustinTrudeau
This is be the outcome.. tentcity
So I guess masks don’t work then. Because if they did, they could all be made to wear one. Since they need to do what they are told because they are in fact PRISONERS
Stupidity from a socialist, far left democratic governor.
Why? Just give them masks.
WTF🤬
The plandemic is working
The people running that state are clueless.
Good time to be a pedophile in Cali.
So they'll release prisoners, but somehow schools are supposed to be safe in September?
Another reason to Keep Canada's Borders Totally Closed!
What could possibly go wrong?
Why can't they wear a mask. They work don't they?
Oh perfect, it's not like it's in the middle of violent civil unrest that the police are being ordered to not stop.
😳
Makes perfect sense! Release people who are known to break rules when in the midst of a pandemic. COVIDIOTS
Wouldn’t restricting access to the prison be more effective than adding 8k more ppl to the general population?
Great time to visit!! When are the borders opening!!!!
Thank God, I was so worried about them.
Releasing prisoners to lower fear..?
God speed
Democrats!
Defund the police too. I bet that'll solve a whole lot of problems!
But lock the whole world down....interesting.
Makes no sense whatsoever.
Defund the police, & simultaneously release 8000 prisoners I really hope they don’t screw up this time and release domestic abusers, rapists, drunk drivers, pedophiles etc Tell me they r releasing ppl that hv unpaid traffic tickets 🤞
realDonaldTrump So you release 8000 prisoners due to virus fears and open Disney on the same day ?
...and the Dems are worried about one Roger Stone.
LOL ... That will surely make everyone much safer . The entire country of the USA has gone completely bonkers , it was already on its way down but this last administration really pushed it over the cliff . Capitalism has destroyed western democracy .
Of those prisoners who were already released, what is the recidivism rate?
But back to school everyone goes!
Just make them wear masks? Right? Or, do they work?
If home made face masks are so effective, why not just give them masks instead?
lol what a disaster of a state
The Canadians would have released them years ago, eh ?
