EARLY RELEASE FOR NONVIOLENT PRISONERS
State governments are releasing early nonviolent offenders and ignoring
minor parole violation to reduce overcrowding and cut their budgets. I
think early release of these nonviolent offenders without having them go
through certain program, treatments, and community supervision will make
the public unsafe. Why? Because say, if you release a drug addict, he or
she will more than likely go back to drugs and this means they will crimes
like burglary, robbery and prostitutions. What good would early releasing
these nonviolent offenders do? when they go back to threatening public
safety. July 28, 2008 Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said “I am here to
tell you that the early release of inmates is totally unacceptable,” and
“They should only be let out when they have served their sentences and are
ready to return to society. Period.” California Governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger later proposed eliminating parole for all offenders not
convicted of violent or sex related crimes, reducing the parole
population by about 70,000. He also wants to move 15,000 petty criminals
from prison to county jail. If he does this then county jails will
experience over crowding, then there’s another problem. This is a problem
everyone should be concerned with.
