Precisely how is this progressive?Probation officer’s spot check finds unconscious woman in sex offender’s St. Paul apartment
A probation officer’s random check of a Level 3 sex offender led to a disturbing discovery.
What about protecting the citizenry?
He was convicted of murder in 1987, his next major crime was kidnapping a 17 year old girl and she was lucky to escape else she would be dead.
Doesn’t need to make sense, just needs to get people mad.
Prove this was a progressive thing to do. If you can't, you should edit the title.
This is why elections matter. How in the world did the guy get out after all of those crimes?
You haven't answered or proven it was progressive thing. Lots of Dems are hard on crime.
Rhere are stereotypes for a reason. And you do know that a stereotype does not mean 100% of all are the same. Don't you have any stereotypes of conservatives that aee generally true of conservatives? I can think of some.
As to past a conviction of murder in the first degree and why he was freed, here is further information for clarity:Probation officer’s spot check finds unconscious woman in sex offender’s St. Paul apartment

Good research, I'm not sure I'm making my point. I can live with 30 years in prison for first degree murder. But once he grabbed that 17 year-old girl, and she was lucky to get away, that's an undeniable incorrigible violent criminal. He had 30 years to rehab, rehab failed, and society needed to be protected. The sentencing for the crime against the girl completely missed the mark, as it did with his two assaults on correctional officers. So three times for sure those soft on crime did not properly sentence him. Yet people time and time again will not vote for judges and prosecutors and legislators who will give tough sentences.
I already posted that the judge in the case with the 17 year old girl gave him an enhanced sentence which was life, but the prosecutor did not get the indictment through a grand jury so it made the case ineligible for an enhanced sentence.
Was it an error or did the prosecutor not bother? In any case, as I have already stated, in addition to those crimes twice the guy assaulted a corrections officer. An opportunity to sentence the guy to many more years in prison. Four violent crimes. Why wasn't it done?
The County Attorney involved, Thomas N. Kelly, is a long time member of the Republican Party.
The phrasing of the statements suggests these reformers have not been able to achieve these reforms. Whether they are right headed or wrong headed, it doesn't have much to do with any real situation, much less the one in the OP.
I disagree with you. As an example look at the recall of the San Francisco DA in 2022.
