When we call the police here to tell them of the crap we see constantly, we are met with "they have rights too!" Yeah, well I don't pay nearly $3k a month for my apartment to have to then walk about my block and encounter these people. I am also sick of the "mental health" excuse. Call me the bad guy, but I don't want these people in my city where I've spent my entire life feel safe.

In most of these cases you will find that the perpetrator was previously arrested and even “convicted” but still makes it back to the streets to eventually harm others, in this case fatally. The guy that broke into the mayor’s official home earlier this week, has a violent background in Massachusetts, for assault and I believe attempted murder. Why are they on the streets, usually released early for “good behavior” or “time served presentencing”. Their behaviors do not change, laws need to be stiffened not softened!

Black again, there are just too many of them in the section 8 program and a big waste of taxpayer's money.

You guys blame the liberal DA’s, completely justified and understandable. But what about the idiots that keep voting for these liberal policies?

I truly hope the family sues the hell out of DA's office and/or the city

[@ronaldlee3537]

The voters got the government they voted for. If anyone wants to blame it is Calif Gov Gavin Newsom & L.A. County DA George Gascón. The passage of Props 47 & 57, and AB109 increased crime AB 109(early release of non-violent, non-serious, and non-sex offenders) to Propositions 57(11/8/2016, allows parole consideration for nonviolent felons, juvenile considerations) and 47(11/4/2014,reduced penalties for certain non-violent crimes). It was claimed these propositions released non-violent criminals, but in reality the opposite was true. In addition to the security provided by LAPD, Metro-PD, & LASD, I think Metro-Rail should hire Dr. Paul Kersey to lead Metro security.

Why don't they ask George Gascón and Galvin nuisance aka Newsom to help out It's because of their soft on crime law.This woman is dead
