Briefly

'That man is a monster,' California serial child molester granted parole. Victims are outraged
"the monster parents fear the most"
"He shouldn't be breathing the same air that we're breathing at all,"
"I disagree with him getting paroled out because he's a horrible person. That man is a monster."
David Allen Funston lured children outside their homes with candy and toys in Sacramento suburbs in 1995–1996 and was convicted in 1999 on 16 counts of kidnapping and child molestation. He was sentenced to 20 years and 8 months plus three consecutive 25‑to‑life terms and is incarcerated at the California Institution for Men in Chino. California's elderly parole rules allow inmates over 50 with at least 20 continuous years incarcerated to seek release if not an unreasonable public-safety risk. Funston was denied elderly parole in May 2022, granted in September, and the full parole board recently upheld that grant. Several victims and the prosecutor oppose the decision, and CDCR did not comment on an estimated release date.
