Yup, crime is up, committed by felons already released in other states. At least one murder by a former inmate just released.
Oops wrong thread... Can't get it to delete.. lol guess it applies here too though .
Still don't understand how law abiding citizens are told to lockdown and prisoners are being set free...
I was going to say, this is nothing new, they are releasing like 6000 people, heck how many do they release on a normal day to save money or please the bleeding hearts.
These liberal states, and even the non-liberal states have been making the communities more dangerous for years.
Too much money spent on pet programs, catering to the lazy, paying more govt employees, govt boondoggles, sweetheart retirement and healthcare programs, etc, etc.
So instead of cutting back or punishing criminals they punsh the law abiding by letting all these wastes of oxygen back into society to do mayhem and breed.
They say history always repeats itself and big civilizations always fall.
We are pushing that closer and closer.
Society will collapse, and the wild west will come back
It's like when Penguin becomes mayor in Gotham...In my opinion, this is what I think is happening. The virus is an excuse. During the last recession, many state agencies in the general fund to a big hit. For some reason in WA, statutorily mandated government services are not protected in the budget, they are in the general fund. The Department of Corrections saw huge cuts, allowing many entitlements to remain in the budget.
After the recession, DOC started hiring lots of people to comply with governor-endorsed "evidence based" methods of re-entry. Then, huge raises were implemented because WA DOC had really low salaries compared to other agencies and the workload had increased dramatically. This became real expensive, real quick.
The Janus decision makes it so public employees can't be forced to join the unions. Unions representing DOC staff saw losses in membership because most represented DOC staff are conservative and don't want to fund Democrats (the friends of the administration).
Several executive orders are made that effect how DOC operates, pushing it to the left. They go through a few department heads while trying to figure out how computer glitches released a bunch of inmates early. Lots of staff have to be hired and trained to do all calculations by hand, making DOC more expensive. They start thinking of ways to relieve cost by releasing people early on ankle monitors.
Inslee loses a lot of revenue due to some initiatives like the $30 car tab and the unwillingness of the people to vote in a carbon tax or income tax. He starts looking for money for his agenda. He is very tunnel-visioned and wants to run for president on a legacy of leftist ideas, especially climate change. He asks for rainy day funds and it doesn't happen. His POTUS run doesn't get off the ground.
COVID19 happens, money goes toward it, Inslee has to veto a bunch of entitlements and isn't happy about it. He wants his money from somewhere. Several bills are introduced during the session that will allow him to gut a few agencies. Here is what effects DOC:
1: People on felony probation will earn good conduct time, reducing the vast majority of sentences from 12 months to 8 months.
2: People arrested for probation violations don't have to spend as much time in jail, usually less than 30 days.
3: If you're serving time for a felony and commit a new felony, the sentence has to run concurrently, when it used to run consecutively.
4: Prosecutors can modify sentences if the time "no longer serves the interest of the public".
As COVID19 craze increases, DOC manages to make some instant changes that must have taken some thought ahead of time (hmmmm). Felons on probation won't have to report and won't have to submit to drug/alcohol tests. Probation officers can start staying home since jails aren't accepting new bookings and their contact standards have been cut to less than half.
Riot happens at a prison and the inmates demand to have sentences reduced. INSTANTLY, Inslee agrees and with a week, people are getting released. WA government achieves a new level of efficiency! Again, hmmm. With reductions in caseloads from the new laws, contact standards, and early release programs, layoffs can happen.
Inslee will get money for what he wants to do with his agenda. He's hugely popular with felons and their families/allies, a dramatically growing population in WA. He got them everything above, and the right to vote.
Even with the budget shortfall that will occur from this virus and the resulting unemployment from his policies, he has preemptively given himself a purse to push his agenda.
One look at the guy woulda convinced me to keep him in jail

They are not they are releasing them to go live with who ever will take them in.So I am not sure of the specifics, but I can only hope that they are taking into consideration whether or not these released, non-law abiding citizens, actually have a place to go. If not, then how the fluck can they lock down at home like the actual law abiding citizens must do? It would be absolutely counter-productive to not ensure this. Seems to me, it would be more prudent to keep the guards on a tight medical leash with daily temperature checks and weekly covid checks and put all new arrivals into isolation for 14 days before releasing into the general population. What they are doing now is just letting a bunch of convicts loose willy nilly, for the public to deal with. Do they not recall that these folks do not make good choices? If nothing else, they are adding to the homeless problem in addition to creating more carriers / infectious bodies to wander about the state.
Yep they removed the delete option.Deleted - I screwed up my post. I can't get it deleted!

Not always "out_n_about" these days but ALWAYS I carry! I live rural enough that predators are a constant problem (from lions, coyotes, feral dog packs, raccoons, possum, and even the occasional human! There are enough problems I cannot keep pet dogs or cats outside, penned chickens and goats unprotected (even in day time) and for certain, grand kids playing unsupervised! In spite of all that I would still rather live rural. When I do go to town, predators are a problem there also! So what's a person to do? CARRY ALWAYS, and stay alert!It's a good reminder to increase your carry frequency (if it's not already at 100% of the time). Some ways to do that might be to add a tiny gun if current EDC size limits how often you carry. Or changing attire or holster and also adding a "truck gun" might be worth thinking about, depending on your situation. We have so many good options nowadays.
Politicians, flippin' hilarious. And very sad.This story includes a link to a PDF of the released offenders. Note the huge number of firearms-related offenses.
