The Politics of Crime

The Governor’s plan to let out the locked-up is still locked-up in the Assembly. The Assembly is using amendments to water down the proposal that was already passed by the Senate but the weaker version may not have the support of the Police or the Governor. Why can’t the GOP make peace with early release?

Guests:
Sen. George Runner, R-17th, Lancaster; Chair of the Senate Republican Caucus

Robert Weisberg, Professor of Law and Director of the Stanford Criminal Justice Center at Stanford Law School.

Bernard Melekian, Chief, Pasadena Police Department
