The Elderly Parole Program, designed to reduce California’s prison population, allows for the release of aging inmates, including violent offenders, raising concerns for victims.
Victims' advocates stress that releasing offenders like Cody Klemp not only risks public safety but also revictimizes those who suffer from their crimes; their trauma continues indefinitely.
The program was established to manage California's prison overpopulation effectively, yet critics argue that it compromises the justice deserved by victims of violent crimes.
Despite claims of rigorous screening by parole officials, the emotional toll on victims questioned the moral implications of releasing serious offenders back into society.
