Rally against "Non-Revocable Parole" by family of Erica Evelyn Escobar

Blogger notes: The family of murder victim Erica Evelyn Escobar (pictured below) with State Senator Ted Lieu, will hold an 11 AM protest/rally tomorrow Friday at the Ronald Reagan State Building (300 S. Spring Street) to highlight awareness of the "deadly policy" of Non-Revocable Parole. As the LA Weekly blog post by Dennis Romero on tomorrow's event states, the policy of No-Revocable Parole is designed to to reduce the number of prisoners who end up back behind bars for small violations of their parole (smoking a joint or hanging out with a gang member, for example). California's prisons are grossly overcrowded, so every little thing helps. This blogger with the help of retired Parole Officer Caroline Aguirre, have and will continue to bring you information on a policy that has led to the deaths of Erica Evelyn Escobar and Veteran Lucien Bergez by supposed low level, non violent parolee Lehnen Zackariah. Please if you can, consider taking the time to join in this endeavor to end this "deadly policy"---Scott Johnson.

Promotional Video for "Stop Killers--Stop Non-revocable Parole" Campaign


Blogger notes: Longtime friend of Mayor Sam Caroline Aguirre forward us this first of hopefully many videos in the campaign to end the practice of "Non-revocable Parole" in California. We have sadly noted in the past on this blog, the harm to our communities by "low-risk parolees" who kill, rape and beat as part of their premature release from prison. Please join in supporting those including retire parole officer Caroline Aguirre, who seek to return sanity to the State of California Parole System--Scott Johnson.

Non-revocable parole (NRP) is a California program that releases "low-risk" criminals from prison on "unsupervised parole." With NRP, prisoners are released onto the streets before their time is fully served. There is no tracking for released criminals, and they can only be sent back to prison for new violations.

California's NRP program was instated in 2010 because the state needed to save money. However, released prisoners have already committed heinous crimes. Search Zackariah Lehnen, a defendent in a DOUBLE MURDER case who was out on NRP. 

NRP needs to stop. Human lives are at stake simply because California wants to save money. Enough is enough. Help revoke NRP
