I thought California was going to let thousands of its prison inmates go free anyway ... as part of its effort to balance its budget.
I’ve given up trying to understand California.
Prisons in California are an industry... they even have a company called Prison Industry.... Many incarcerated are non-violent offenders that should be dealt with differently than violent offenders, but then again what would they do with all of those union prison guard jobs????
