Seven “high risk” sex offenders with histories of violating their parole orders have been released by California over coronavirus concerns.
Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom and other state officials have claimed that emptying prisons is designed to ease overcrowding to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
Orange County Sheriff Don Barnes said in a news release that the county’s Board of Supervisors has reduced the region’s prison population by almost 45 percent in less than two months despite no issues with overcrowding.
“These kinds of high-risk sex offenders are the most dangerous kind of criminal and the most likely to re-offend,” Orange County District Attorney Toff Spitzer said in a statement. “They are doing everything they can to avoid detection by the parole officers assigned to monitor them so they can potentially commit additional sex offenses. These are not the kind of people who should be getting a break.
“It is not the Court’s responsibility to control the jail population by releasing these dangerous criminals back into our communities,” Spitzer said. “The residents of Orange County deserve to have the peace of mind that registered sex offenders are being held accountable and not just let out the front door of jail by a court commissioner who refuses to follow the law.”
Breitbart News reported that, in the past month, Newsom commuted sentences for 14 convicted killers in California — helping them to be released early from prison.
“In one case, Newsom commuted the sentence of a 50-year-old felon convicted for stabbing his pregnant wife to death. In another case, a woman was freed early after being convicted of assaulting a child to death,” the Breitbart report said.
The seven sex offenders who were released:
James Franklin Bowling, 50-years-old, who has been convicted of lewd conduct in a public place, repeated convictions for failing to register as a sex offender, repeated convictions for sex offender on school grounds, and possession of controlled substance and paraphernalia.

Mario Ernesto Sandoval, 45-years-old, has been convicted of sexual battery, touching for sexual arousal, indecent exposure, assault on a peace officer, and assault.
He has violated his parole one time this year. Sandavol failed to charge his GPS device as required by law and was unaccounted for one third of the time he was out of custody, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
