I commented upon it here: “One murder is not convincing enough for the editorial writers at the Courant: ‘It's too early in this year-old program,” the paper avers, “to come to such a conclusion. One failure, even one leading to a fatality, is no justification for scuttling the entire program.’” http://donpesci.blogspot.com/2012/08/courant-oks-defective-risk-reduction.html<br />There have been other violent crimes committed by released prisoners who have been awarded release credits since the appearance of the Courant’s editorial, which represents the views of the paper’s publisher and editorial writers.<br />Most reporters have not followed the story surrounding the early release program with the same diligence and dispatch one finds in, say, the story surrounding salary increases within the state’s colleges. That one caused some heads to roll. This one, not so much.<br />Sorry for the tardy posing. I wasn’t available today. <br />Don Pescihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11167988001948356357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9069955.post-43717366171318656542012-10-18T16:04:50.999-04:002012-10-18T16:04:50.999-04:00I tried earlier to comment, so forgive me if I'...I tried earlier to comment, so forgive me if I'm repeating myself.<br />Just would like to thank you for your attention to this issue. Has the Courant run a story on the law or its effects on the streets of Meriden or New Haven? <br /> <br />It's hard to understand why Attys. Malloy and Lawlor are hell-bent on jamming this program down our throats. It's reminiscent of Malloy's mysterious commitment to the idiotic busway. Are they really so committed to their progressive ideology that they can't reconsider what is surely a small part of Malloy's agenda? There can't be much political hay to be made with it. <br />Mr. Suzio wants only a suspension. Would seem more than reasonable since public hearings were never held before the thing was passed in the figurative dead of night. The apparent punishment of Ms.Cruz is appalling. <br />Another example of mindless liberal viciousness. Thanks to her and Mr. Suzio for their courage.peter brushnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9069955.post-1477255492755003352012-10-18T09:52:52.483-04:002012-10-18T09:52:52.483-04:00Thanks for your reporting on the early release pro...Thanks for your reporting on the early release program. It appears to be a gratuitously bad idea ideologically motivated and jammed through the legislature without the benefit of proper hearings. Now with the attack on Ms.Cruz we have further evidence of vicious undemocratic liberalism at the Capitol. God Bless her and Mr. Suzio; admirable courage.<br />peter brushnoreply@blogger.com
