San Francisco Judge Considers Early Release for 91-Time Felon, Just 5 Years After He Killed 2 Women While High on Meth
The Western Journal ^ | 10/12/2025 | Ole Braatelien

A San Francisco judge is deciding whether to prosecute Troy McAlister, a serial felon who was high on meth when he allegedly struck and killed two women while driving a stolen car.

That incident happened in 2020. But 40 hearings, motions, and conferences later, McAlister has yet to stand trial, according to The Voice of San Francisco.

In the latest delay, an Oct. 3 hearing originally intended to set a jury trial was instead used as another hearing on McAlister’s behalf: His public defender requested that, rather than face prosecution, McAlister be placed in a drug diversion program, the U.K.’s Daily Mail reported.

If Superior Court Judge Michael Begert approves, McAlister’s case would be transferred to San Francisco Drug Court, which focuses on treatment and therapy, rather than imprisonment, SFist reported.

“Research continuously shows that long-term structured treatment far, far improves public safety over simple incarceration,” Scott Grant, McAlister’s defense attorney, said according to KGO-TV in California.

But protesters outside the Oct. 3 hearing were fed up with the city’s weak-on-crime justice system.

“Troy McAlister has been charged with 91 felonies over the course of his multi-decades career here in San Francisco, and we don’t think that someone should be given infinite chances to ultimately correct course,” Scotty Jacobs, director of Blueprint for a Better San Francisco, said according to KTVU-TV in California.

It was Dec. 31, 2020, when McAlister allegedly struck Elizabeth Platt, 60, and Hanako Abe, 27, with a stolen car he was driving.

McAlister, who was on parole for robbery, was reportedly high on meth when he killed Platt and Abe.

A lot of our systems don’t seem to do much of anything anymore, at some point it seems they become just a huge self sustaining organization of salaries, comfortable buildings, and big pensions.

“..If he is released he should be receive the Kersey solution....”

It’a about the only ‘solution” that’s left for any form of real justice.
America should have just about its full of black-robed tyrants by now.
The justice system, especially in Ca, is broken...big time.
Nothing quite like a DEI-installed criminal... This one is probablly one of Grusome Newscum’s favorites. The RATs should run him for governor...

They should be focused on quickly converting him into worm food.
