Massachusetts Bail Fund helps free sex offender who now faces new allegations

The Massachusetts Bail Fund, whose slogan is “Free Them All,” faced fierce criticism on Thursday after helping free a Level 3 sex offender who is accused of committing new violent offense after his release, according to a report.

The group posted the $15,000 bail to free Shawn McClinton, who has been convicted of a 1994 rape and had another pending rape case, according to the Boston Globe. The paper reported that McClinton, who is 39, is now accused of kidnapping, beating and raping a woman in Quincy on Tuesday.

“You talk about a violation of constitutional rights? Women aren’t free to walk around because of this predator, and the Bail Fund wants to bail someone like that?” William Gross, the Boston police commissioner, asked, according to the paper. “The Bail Fund folks are not from the inner city. I don’t know who they think they’re helping. They’ve proved they are a detriment to the community.”

A Level 3 sex offender in their state has a high risk of re-offending and a high degree of danger to the public.

Wonder if he wants to defund the police, like the Democrat terrorists? (first word, third line from the top)

whose slogan is “Free Them All,”

Usually, it's more difficult than this to connect people of good intentions with the evil that results from their actions.
As the old saying goes, "the road to hell...."

The “bail and release” group needs a good anal lawsuit in the millions by the victim and her family.

They can also post the names of members of the group, esp. those who posted bail or intervened for his release (Mass. Bail Fund).

Time to take the war to them.

Very interesting...

Your article reminded me of something that happened to one of two guys released after they served prison time because the DA used false testimony in trial...Los Angeles County paid them millions for compensation...

“Falsely Imprisoned Man Convicted in New Case : Crime: Found guilty of sexual assault, Benny Gene Powell faces a sentence of up to 52 years. He won $3.5 million after wrongly serving 17 years in prison.”

https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-11-23-mn-706-story.html

RIVERSIDE —

“Benny Gene Powell, whose 17 years of wrongful imprisonment won him $3.5 million last year, was convicted this week of sexually assaulting a UCLA student and faces returning to prison for up to 52 years.

Powell, 47, was convicted by a Riverside County Superior Court jury in connection with the May, 1993, assault of a 35-year-old German student in a motel room in Beaumont, near Palm Springs.”

Mr. Benny Powell was no angel...

If violent felons got 50 years for the first offense and death for the second offense, recidivism would disappear and the US crime rare would fall off to a small fraction of today’s.

Why do DemocRats want to turn violent criminals loose on Americans?
