Anyone voting to release a criminal early should be required to leave that criminal alone in their own home with their children for the first 24 hours after they get out of jail.

I agree with Nod on this one. The story is very confusing. I say do away with "good behavior" and make them serve the time given...period!

After spending all those years in prison how can they acclamate to society? I just hope when they come out back in society they remember they were once men and never women. I hope they get that straight first. Prison makes you nasty.

These "LEGISLATORS" write laws and the "COURTS" decide what the law means. Your LEGISLATORS WROTE THIS LAW AND "LEGISLATORS" are now writing the health care legislation that will change this country forever. We can't even read the darn thing.

If these prisoners have not behaved in prison, what makes the officials think they will do the same in society? Someone is not really thinking. The rule should never have been made.

If they were a threat to the public went they were in prison for heindous crimes they committed,what makes you think that they are going to be a threat once they get out? I would be concerned for the safety of families and others whom these low-lifes are a constant threat to society and others...... mostly KIDS....No wonder we let low-life criminals walk free out on the streets and you got stupid politicians that don't see that they will do this again.....Old Bad Habits don't break...they're do it again until they're caught.
