Quinn Suspends Secret Program

As soon as daylight appears, Governor Cockroach scurries for cover. AP breaks the story (via the Sun Times):
  • Repeat drunk drivers, drug users and even people convicted of battery and weapons violations are serving less than three weeks' total time behind bars under a secret change in policy by Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn's prison system, The Associated Press has learned.

    Records obtained and analyzed by the AP show that since September more than 850 inmates have been released weeks earlier than they ordinarily would be. The Corrections Department is saving money by abandoning a policy that requires inmates to serve at least 61 days and awarding them discretionary good-conduct credit immediately upon entering prison.
Battery offenders? Weapons violators? Why even have prisons at all governor? Quinn suspended the program as soon as it came to light:
  • Quinn said today that his office will review the Illinois Department of Corrections' "meritorious good time" release program, which came under fire after an analysis showed some inmates with past convictions for drunken driving, battery and weapons violations spent mere weeks behind bars before release.

    Under the program, corrections chief Michael P. Randle may grant any inmate 90 days' worth of credit based on their behavior while behind bars.

    The report by the Associated Press found hundreds of inmates were given the good-conduct credit immediately on entering prison, and more than 850 inmates have been released under the program since September.

Of course, since this was a budgetary move, don't count on Parole Agents being sent out to collect these mistakes any time soon.

A definitely don't count on a list of names so we can see what sort of mayhem Quinn and Randle have unleashed on the community. Just like Quinn won't release the names of the 1,000 he still plans on releasing so we can track that plague, too.

((((((((((((((((((( * )))))))))))))))))))


The "Free Bill Cozzi" site on Facebook has nearly 600 in 3 days. Jump in as a show of support.

The explanation is simple:

This was never about whether Bill was right or wrong that day. Bill admitted he had made a mistake. We all make mistakes. This is about the injustice that has befallen Bill.

Bill did his time and then got hammered a second time. This is wrong !




Be aware that another site has popped up with 4 members and started by a "Brett Devlin" called:

Instead of "Free Bill Cozzi", how about don't beat up cripples, RETARD!

This site states the following:

"I'm so sick of cops breaking the law and doing whatever they please and then whining like little bitches when they get caught..."


As far as I'm concerned, that's more attention than they deserve and I won't go on with the rest of their STUPID comments.


How about a post for FREE BILL COZZI on Facebook, SCC?

How many hoops do the police have to jump through to get felony review to approve a case, all the court dates to get a conviction and after all that the criminals are still let go!

God bless Bill Cozzi, you get wronged more every day.

Quinn is a communist. He was quoted in the Scumtimes that taxes should be taken "from those with the ability to pay". From Karl Marx's book out of Quinn's mouth.

Hey SCC, I just discovered that the above named "Brett Devlin", apparently in an attempt to spy on the "Free Bill Cozzi" movement, is also a "fan" of "Free Bill Cozzi".

Just thought everyone would like that information!

EXACTLY!! Not to mention after they've been sitting in county for 2 yrs, just for the ASA to walk in smiling and say "We got him to plea out to 2 yrs" Great, dude walks out of county on time served with another felony conviction that means nothing to him.

What planet is this utter and complete moron Quinn from anyway ? First he wants to double the state income tax, now he secretly sets criminals free from our prisons. He sure has the no tax paying criminal vote locked up in the next election.

Without question we need to impeach another one and toss him out.

Anonymous 10:22AM said "Quinn is a communist."

Did anyone see/hear Quinn's inaugural speech where he stated that, "like Che Gueverra, we should all work together in these difficult times, and be prepared to sacrifice to get the job done"? Anyone who quotes a communist in his inaugural speech IS a communist. Wake up, folks...and vote for a republican and remove these leftist democrats...starting with communist obama and his communist/marxist administration/czars, and on down. We are in the midst of a coup by these communists in the White House, and we are in the fight of our lives to win this war against these leftists who want to control our every move. This is our "Pearl Harbor" and we had better win against this attempted takeover of our country, our freedom and the destruction of the Constitution, or we can look to communist/socialist Europe as an example of how we will live/lose/suffer. God help us.

True. "It's time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground."

Not the non-violent offenders, just the 1% that are true sociopaths.

Then start taking money out of the LINK cards from their babies mammas and their missing parents, start making them pay for their stay. Each felon has to give up the name of mom, dad(if they know), girlfriends and wives who have their kids being paid for on the state dime, anyone receiving aid, and take a portion out of their state aid to help pay for their own behind bars. Why should everyone else shoulder the money, let the family chip in. Maybe that will straighten out the whole mess, start hitting the wallet of those who breed this crap.
