California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is responding to the Chinese coronavirus crisis by commuting the sentences of 14 felons convicted of murder or being involved in a murder.
Newsom made the decision to more quickly commute felons’ sentences in the midst of the coronavirus, providing early release through parole to about 19 felons — some of whom killed children and one convict who murdered a pregnant woman.
Two of the felons are immigrants to the U.S., and Newsom’s purpose for commuting their sentences is to have them avoid deportation.
The 19 felons given commutations by Newsom include:
50-year-old Rodney McNeal convicted of stabbing his pregnant wife to death 75-year-old Suzanne Johnson convicted of assaulting a child to death 35-year-old Kristopher Blehm convicted for aiding in a murder 64-year-old Joann Parks convicted of killing her three children 67-year-old Rosemary Dyer convicted of murdering her husband 40-year-old Jason Bryant convicted for witnessing murder during a robbery 56-year-old Steven Bradley convicted of murdering a gas station worker 64-year-old Richard Flowers convicted of murdering a woman 61-year-old Samuel Eldredge convicted of shooting a person to death 49-year-old Ramon Rodriguez convicted of murdering a person for pay 56-year-old James Harris convicted of kidnapping and murdering two people 48-year-old Robert Glass convicted of murdering a burglary victim 45-year-old David Jassy convicted of murdering a man he was fighting with 68-year-old Shyrl Lamar convicted of witnessing the murder of two people Tri Thai, an immigrant, convicted of assault, dissuading a witness, and burglary Monsuru Tijani, an immigrant, convicted of issuing fake financial statements Shannon Thomas-Bland convicted of drug crimes Gabriel Garcia convicted of drug crimes Brenda Ibanez convicted of robbery and using a fake ID to buy a vehicle Newsom also pardoned five felons who previously served their sentences for various crimes.

California people love this sort of thing.
Did they let Wesley Shermantine out? I’m sure they’d like to.
And this will fight the virus how, again?
Charge this goobernor as an accomplice next time they murder someone.
Why? Frankly, who cares that these convicted felons might get the corona virus? Given that most people do not have major symptoms, why let these guys out? Maybe I’m just a hardhearted individual but I could never understand why felons who get really ill had their sentences commuted (unless it is to not burden the prison hospital). Having a prison sentence and possibly dying in prison is all part of the consequences of doing the crime.
So, they can check up on people in prison, quarantine them, restrict their contacts, etc. to keep them from exposure. Basically, when they’re in prison, they’re restricted to their “homes” the same as the rest of us. How does letting them out into the world full of this virus keep them safer?
Interesting, criminals in jail go free, but free citizens are threatened of being locked up:

“... Newsom’s purpose for commuting their sentences is to have them avoid deportation.”
Ummm. No. They are still convicted of a horrible crime. Commutation of a sentence is not a pardon.
Deport them now.
Yup, it's left-wing Candyland.
“providing early release through parole to about 19 felons — some of whom killed children and one convict who murdered a pregnant woman ...
Two of the felons are immigrants to the U.S., and Newsom’s purpose for commuting their sentences is to have them avoid deportation.”
Stunning.
It looks more and more that the San Andreas fault is CA’s only hope for getting back to some semblance of sanity...
I guess sheltering in place doesn’t apply here.

It doesn’t of course, as with this entire COVID19 panic the left uses it to push their agenda regardless of it being connected to HELPING people get better.
ImVho, What Newsom actually deserves is a through horsewhipping followed by being banished forever to a socialist country, like Somalia.

Keep them all in California. They enrich the state.
This is not the beginning folks. IMO more prisons will be releasing killers as the virus increases.
Why not just abolish all the laws? No need for courts or lawyers or police or prisons or jailors.
But Sacramento is on the east of the San Andreas fault.
Yep... However, maybe the most of voters who elected all those communists are both on, and to the west of the fault...
Yep, almost all the voters and fraud voters are on the west side of the fault.
