Families of Connecticut victims outraged after state commutes 44 murder sentences: 'Outrageous'
State senator says parole board shaved 67 years off a 95-year sentence in one case

44 murderers receive commuted sentences under Democratic governor's policy
Republican Connecticut State Senator Heather Somers and mother of murder victim Audrey Carlson discuss criminal justice reform that allows murderers to have sentences commuted.

Families of Connecticut crime victims are outraged after 44 murderers had their sentences commuted, accusing the Board of Pardons and Paroles of amending its policy to favor the state's most violent criminals.

Critics of the commutation surge have argued the spike in sentence reduction "re-victimizes" families who chose to accept plea bargains in order to avoid the emotional and mental toll of a lengthy trial.

Audrey Carlson, who lost her daughter Elizabeth after she was murdered more than two decades ago, joined "Fox & Friends First" Monday to discuss her concerns over the policy and why the commutations are "outrageous."

Who voted for the liberalism that caused this to happen?  I'll bet many of the victims' families did.  Who says elections don't have consequences? :pondering:

It boggles the imagination that people would purposely  vote for Dims,and then be surprised when the Dims do what Dims do,and destroy any increases in income they were promised with higher interest rates?

WHY isn't it obvious to everyone by now that the DNC is dedicated to turning America into "The USSR,Part2" by destroying our economy as an excuse to move everyone into goverment housing in mega-cities so they can better control us?

They will control us by controlling the businesses they are ALLOWED to work for,owning the apartments we are ALLOWED to live in,ALL of our medical care,including who gets it and what they get,and controlling EVERYTHING we see and hear from the media.

These fools vote for leftist candidates,and are going to be genuinely surprised when they wake up one day  and realize they are not even people anymore with  rights and guaranteed privileges, but are now slaves of the state.
