Aariel Maynor, sporting multiple facial tattoos, including the Boston Red Sox “B” between his eyes, boasting past employment history as a security guard for pornographic shoots, and accumulating a rap sheet that includes convictions for grand theft, domestic violence, and robbery, looked like a bad candidate for parole to all but the California criminal justice system.

California paroled Maynor on September 1. Three months later, he allegedly murdered Jacqueline Avant, an 81-year-old philanthropist and wife of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Clarence Avant, at her Los Angeles home.

Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon responded by holding a press conference in which he railed at the “system” and lamented that Maynor “never received any meaningful intervention that may have helped him set his life on a different path.”

“We’re trying really hard to use the science that is currently available, the data that is currently available, to do our work,” a defiant Gascon announced, as though the solution to the crime explosion comes from men in lab coats. “And I’m not going to be intimidated by political rhetoric.”
