California prison officials said almost 18,000 inmates in state prisons are being released because of the coronavirus — an increase of 70 percent from earlier release estimates.
And details are surfacing about who these prisoners are, including a report issued by KTLA in Los Angeles:
Among those released last week was Terebea Williams, who served 19 years of an 84 years-to-life sentence for first-degree murder, carjacking and kidnapping.
She was deemed at high medical risk for the virus, though officials couldn’t say what put her in that category.
The Associated Press reported on concerns from police, probation officers, and others involved in the re-entry of prisoners into society that it could include “dangerous criminals who should stay locked up.”
The AP spoke to the sister of the man Williams killed.
“Why is an inmate’s rights more important than a victim’s?” Dena Love said to AP.

So we let out the prisoners to save their lives but we need to keep the kids imprisoned in schools? This is exactly why you don't know what in the world to believe!!
