"Community Matters" - 025

The topic for "Community Matters" tonight was the fear that has been recently heard about the cost-cutting plan to release prisoners early from CA state correctional facilities. Adding fuel to the fire was a case now being covered in the media in which the major players are a 50 year old man with numerous drug offenses, a parolee who was "sentenced" to a treatment facility, being accused of beating a 17 year old girl to death after allegedly robbing her. Bill Murray and Sandy Nazemi talked about how much less expensive it is to treat alcohol and drug offenders before they are released.
