Thread: 33,000 CALIF Prison Inmates To Be Released Into Society!

http://www.sandiego6.com/news/local/sto ... tes-toMore than 33-thousand Inmates to be Released

ARE YOU KIDDING ME????????????? SAN DIEGO - The U.S. Supreme Court has ordered the California Department of Corrections to release 33-thousand inmates from the prison system. The ruling is based on overcrowding and inhumane conditions at the 33 prisons throughout the state.

Frankie Gonzales grew up with drug addicts and gang members. He told San Diego 6, "closed in, isolated, you know anger all that stuff, hatred."

Incarcerated at 18 and now 41, the former Donovan State Prison inmate says conditions are bad. "Prisons are very overcrowded today-very overcrowded."

Kevin Keenan is the executive director at the ACLU's San Diego and Imperial Counties chapter. Keenan told San Diego 6, "It's absolutely inhumane what's going on in our prisons."

Keenan hails monday's Supreme Court decision. "There are just far too many people to provide adequate care in particular medical care to."

The court told the CDC to release 33-thousand inmates. Giving California two years to comply.

For Patti Colston, the executive director of The Crime Victims Fund, the ruling is a wake up call. She told San Diego 6, "it's an affront to victims, it's a slap in the face to victims."

Colston says releasing that many felons is asking for trouble. "We're gonna have an escalation in crime we're gonna see a crime wave we're gonna see the needs of victims grow."

Officials say one of biggest issues facing California is it's own Three strikes law. Stats show about 47-thousand second and third strike inmates are doing time for crimes under 500 dollars.

A committee is working to remove the word "any" from California's three strikes law. As some defendants are given 25 years to life for shoplifting golf clubs. It could come before voters in the near future.

I have to wonder how many illegal criminals will be released instead of deported.

A LOT!! Just when you think things can't get any worse!! This is bad, VERY bad!! Our safety is going to be in diar jeopardy now. Crime will be rampant because of "overcrowding" in our prisons. There's not enough funds to house felons, yet there's plenty of funds to support illegal aliens?? This is beyond insanity!!!!!!!1

All 58 CA. counties are I.C.E. Secure Communities so every illegal alien will be sent to I.C.E.
What I.C.E. does with them CA. has no control over.

As of 4/14/2011 27,899 illegal aliens from CA. have been deported by Secure Communities.

Deported by Secure Communities as of 4/14/2011

Doesn't CA have that one law enforcer that flat out said he would "respect" his cities sanctuary policy? Would that affect this at all?

When the prisoners are in STATE prison the prison would turn illegal aliens over to I.C.E. upon release.
Gov. Jerry Brown is a supporter of Secure Communities,
and as state attorney general ratified the agreement with the federal government.

When the prisoner was in county jail the illegal aliens were flagged by I.C.E. to be deported but can't be deported until they serve their sentence, or the state releases them.
