It Ain't Just Illinois

  • On March 19, a drug suspect with a lengthy rap sheet was released as part of Hillsborough County’s efforts to thin out the jail population amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. One day later, deputies say, he committed murder.

    According to the sheriff’s office, Joseph Edward Williams was in the Orient Road Jail on charges of possession of heroin, which is a third-degree felony, and possession drug paraphernalia, which is a first-degree misdemeanor.

    The 26-year-old was one of 100 inmates given bond as part of an effort to lower the risk of COVID-19 spreading within detention facilities and to protect the inmates, deputies, and civilians working within the jails.

    But now, deputies say, he has been arrested for a murder that took place March 20 along Ash Avenue in Tampa’s Progress Village neighborhood.
  • Los Angeles County's decision to release more than 4,000 inmates because of the coronavirus pandemic has the region dealing with "uncharted territory" in terms of the effect on public safety, an investigative reporter told Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night.

    [...]

    "He said in the interview, this is uncharted territory right here. He said he got pressure from the ACLU and other social activist groups. Two weeks after he made this decision, he started getting letters from those activist groups to release the inmates. Well, he did it," Melugin said. "And he said if these inmates act up, if they don't show up for court, if they start committing crimes again, that's going to look bad for that social justice agenda. And those groups like the ACLU are going to have to rethink what they're doing."
We highly doubt they even thought about the consequences before releasing four-thousand inmates, so they aren't going to think about it going forward except to blame normal thinking people for not being understanding by surrendering all of their property to the newly liberated.

Here, let’s describe the states with the same words the leftist media use to describe just about anything Trump does:


“Chaos! Chaos!!!!! Chaos!!!!!!”



There. That’s about right.

We can't say they didn't think about the consequences; that's their primary responsibility. We have to conclude that, after review, passing the buck and making the resulting mayhem a challenge for officers pushing beat cars seemed preferable to them than answering to the media for not being able to control a pandemic within the walls of correctional facilities.

The radical left knows what they are doing. These former inmates will be able to vote, influence the vote being election judges, poll watchers and voting advisors near the poles. With so many of them being released there will be so much crime in the streets the legitimate voters will be afraid to come out to vote.

Reminds me of the old song "Jailbreak" by Thin Lizzy. But in this case they are set free by the fools in-charge. Now promise to be good boys and don't do anymore crime. Oh yes sir we won't, we promise. That's good enough for a liberal.

In other goofy news. California will be the first state to provide financial relief to Illegal Aliens amid the China Coronavirus mess. Among the measures is a $125 million fund for illegal immigrants living within the state. Seems reasonable, they came in illegally, committed a crime doing so, let us further reward them.

“California is the most diverse state in the nation. Our diversity makes us stronger and more resilient. Every Californian, including our undocumented neighbors and friends, should know that California is here to support them during this crisis,” said the California Governor. Yep diversity sure is our strength, just look at the breakdown of murders and violent crimes in Chicago and other dem controlled shit-hole cities. We need a wall around that state or get Bugs Bunny to cut it off.

So you see who counts. This country gets more sickening all the time. I'm a service connected disabled vet, pity they don't think more about us and less about these types. But it's all about politics, nothing else. Biden will probably ask that freak Caitlyn Jenner to be VP.

One of those "non-violent" offenders in jail for a "victimless" crime or two. How could he possibly be a murderer? Drug dealers and users are just innocent victims of the "war on drugs." It's society's fault that they're dealing drugs, because they have no other jobs available, or using drugs because society made them disadvantaged, poor, unemployed addicts. Right? Drugs have no ties to violent crimes or criminals. It's just not possible. Drugs magically show up and get distributed without any violence or other crimes. It's all about nonviolence and victimless crime. Nothing bad can happen.

There is no such thing as a victimless crime. That term is nonsense. A law was broken and someone was harmed. Possible in some cases the jailed person was the one hurt by the crime but nonetheless someone was hurt. So stop saying these people being released never hurt anyone. But he just robbed a store, how about the store owner that lost money was he not violated. Or the homeowner that had his home forceably entered and possessions taken his loss was twofold first valuables taken and more importantly his or her sense of personal safety. So no there is no victimless crimes stop promoting this line of fake news. All crimes leave behind a victim or they would not be called crimes but instead good deeds.

Morons don’t have to be in jail to get sick.
Where do the wardens think these fuckers are going to go?
Who is most likely to congregate and hang out to spread virus than a once long confined felon?

Even if they get the sniffles they most likely won’t go to the county clinic until they’re just about on the death bed. Think about it...ever see a thug at St Rogers with the flu? Nope, just punctures and GSWs.

Stupid excuse to empty jails that restorative justice didn’t.
If the jailbirds get sick, they get sick. If they don’t, law abiding citizens are safer.

More feral on the streets ignoring illegal lockdowns sinisterly designed to overwhelm the police.

Better they all die in jail then be released and one innocent suffer at their hands. The opposite argument that the liberals use to shut down capital punishment. Sounds harsh but we all know they will not all die,some will, but it could be a good Petri dish for the medical community to come up with some answers.

Hey they were relatively safe in jail. Free medical three host and a cot and cable TV. On the street, no medical no food no money and maybe no place to sleep. So what will they do? Would it surprise you to see go directly back to the habits that got them jailed in the first place? Probably not since your a Pollyanna fool. Leave them in jail, if they het sick treat them but leave them in jail where they belong. The real question is why release some and not all. If your really worried about their health then it should be all hour worried about not just a few, so why not release them all. Layoff the whole jail staff and save a whole bunch of money. Seems reasonable to me if your going o release a few.

What are the odds that the Oak Park attorney couple Thomas Johnson and Leslie Ann Jones were part of the new crime spree from the newly released?

According to WGN news, "Johnson has served as a hearing officer for Chicago’s police disciplinary panel since the 1990s. He oversaw many high profile cases, including officers accused of attempting to cover up the Laquan McDonald shooting."

Hopefully they follow this story to its end when they find the perps

When they open up the streets next month and require MASK (all the time)
will all those released be sent back to JAIL?

Did any of those idiot Alderman create a law for a charge of a person not wearing a mask in a public place? (too hard to meet up right).

No law for large parties and impounding cars?

Bars, clubs, strip clubs, Whats the capacity limits? I know the alderman are worried about the HOPELESS, junkies, and people who already have free housing!

Oh the voters don't care, if they did they would be appalled by that affordable bail rubbish and how bad that has gone. And still Foxx is in control. Dart blames someone else, everyone else, it's the dems mantra. People are like comatose sheep. they vote with their feet, do as they are told or don't vote at all.

==========
If the inmate catches it while in custody, it is the county's problem. the county has to pay for their health care and there well could be legal consequences down the road leading to big payouts, especially if an inmate who is incarcerated for some penny ante offense dies from the disease while incarcerated.

It is not ideal, but I can understand why the county would want to release as many prisoners as possible, if nothing else to protect the staff.

Prisons and jails have a bad record of TB and other diseases sweeping through them. This virus is extremely contagious. It would not take much for it to go through a lot of prisoners and staff if it got a foot hold.

Nah. Spreads like crazy in institutions like hospitals, nursing homes and, yes, prison. Remember how the CDC said masks weren't needed and all you had to do was wash your hands? Complete BS.

That said, the real reason to get them out is to avoid having to pay for the medical care.

Agreed! And there is no such thing as a "non-violent" drug offense. That bag of heroin, crack, weed, etc., has violence associated with it somewhere in the supply chain. If the user didn't rob someone for the money to obtain it, some Mexican, Colombian, Nigerian somewhere probably died in the delivery to the good old USA. Take that you liberal pieces of crap. Minorities dying so you can release "non-violent" drug offenders.
