Gov. Hochul’s Decision to Release Prisoners Early Because of State Incompetence is Not an April Fool’s Joke: New York State Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar
“New Yorkers who thought Governor Kathy Hochul was kidding about releasing convicted prisoners early because of staff shortages — or because it’s April Fool’s Day — will be shocked to learn that it’s true after all. The Governor is actually planning to release convicted felons back into our communities because there aren’t enough officers to guard them.
“It’s hard to overstate how badly Governor Hochul and her progressive colleagues in Albany have screwed up New York’s criminal justice system. They turned the greatest crime-fighting state in America into a national laughing-stock in a single generation. Progressivism at its finest.”
