Police say Troy McAlister was intoxicated when he ran a red light in a stolen car, killing Elizabeth Platt, 60, and Hanako Abe, 27
A career criminal is asking to swap prison time for a drug-treatment program nearly five years after his New Year’s Eve rampage in downtown San Francisco allegedly killed two pedestrians – reigniting fierce debate over California’s woke criminal justice practices.
On Friday, Troy McAlister’s attorney, Scott Grant, asked the court to grant mental-health and substance-abuse diversion under California Penal Code §1001.36, which could allow McAlister to enter treatment instead of facing decades in prison if Judge Michael Begert rules that he qualifies.
In deep-blue San Francisco, residents rallied to protest what they say would undermine accountability.
"91 felonies, 2 deaths, No more chances," signs read outside San Francisco’s Hall of Justice. "Judge Begert chooses politics over public safety. Justice NOW."
The case of McAlister, 50, has long been a lightning rod of restorative justice reform, forcing elected officials to confront whether policies meant to show compassion to offenders put the public at risk.

RE: “91 felonies, 2 deaths, No more chances,” signs read outside San Francisco’s Hall of Justice.
The key word is “outside.”
There is no “justice” inside the courts.
Live flaying should be an available punishment for the death penalty.
He should be admitted to the 3S treatment system...

Shut up
What happened to three strikes law?
Under the Hussein/Biden/Harris Regime, he would have needed 500 felonies to get noticed.
Lost Angeless Mayor Karen Bass Ackwards would probably hire this creep as “seasoned advisor.”

Apparently this was Friday, which was four days ago.
Typical coverup by the media.
The George Floyd mobs would have been out already if it were their side’s hanky to the face sob story.
A real injustice doesn’t get covered for 4 days?
But our people never commit even 1 felony, let alone 91.
However Holder's People are another story.
And everyone else wishes a DA in California would actually do his job. And that would definitely have prevented this tragedy.
Well, you voted for this, you stupid bastards. It’s a bit late to be complaining about it now
YES, yes, yes.
*Compassion to offenders*???????
What about compassion to the populace?
And how is letting someone go on a self-destructive life course *compassion* anyways?
Not buying it. All the democrats are doing is letting the career criminals do their dirty work of anarchy and chaos and killing for them, then the democrats can ride in on a white horse and offer a *solution* to the populace that further restricts our freedoms and enslaves us to them.
Maybe he was hungry.
Don’t let this murderer get the easy way out. If he really wanted rehab, it would have occurred a lllooonnnggg time ago.
BURY ABOUT 10 FEET DEEP
I’m guessing that you have to be at least a 100x felon in the state of California to be considered a career criminal.
“What happened to three strikes law?“
What always happens to three strikes laws; headlines like LIFE IN PRISON FOR STEALING A SNICKERS BAR!!!! LIFE IN PRISON FOR STEALING A SLICE OF PIZZA!!! Etcetra etcetra.
