Now a murder, this life long crimmial was released from prison, was wanted for parole volation, had many charges against him , a classic example of our “lets make a deal” judicial system.When Oprah gets a new couch to sit on and talk for her millions the hole world knows but when these crimmials are released from prison, not a word to society, Their release should be on the news as well as the names of the parole board members who freed them to do more harm. Crime is the fastest growing commity in America.Don’t re-elect anybody!
