Sacramento early release inmate Kevin Peterson arrested for attempted rape; said release 'wasn't a bad deal'
A Sacramento County jail inmate released Monday night as part of California's effort to reduce the state's inmate population was arrested just hours later after police said he tried to rape a woman, according to the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department.
In theory, according to politicians, only the "non-violent" prisoners are eligible for the early release from prison program.
If the people determining what prisoners are "non-violent", are the same people who are incapable of balancing the budget, then I guess we should not be surprised when there is the inevitable increase in crime.
I wonder if Charles Manson is considered "non-violent" since he hasn't killed anyone for the past few decades?
I wonder if pyromaniacs are considered "non-violent"? If they terminate firemen and let pyromaniacs loose, that would be a good lesson to the public.
In fact, I thought the early prison release program was an effort to punish the taxpayers for not continuously voting for more new taxes whenever the politicians asked for new taxes.
Now maybe the public will think twice about not voting for new taxes when the government asks for it!
