He was arrested on May 5th for assaulting one of his family members with a semi-automatic weapon. So the question is, why was he released less than three and a half years into this sentence??

This type of credit should be carefully considered for offenders who are not a risk to the community upon release and who do not have convictions of violent felonies, especially in their recent history. The community lost an honorable officer and reattained a violent man.\u00a0 This does not exemplify justice for the victim, his family, or the law abiding public.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Sacramento Bee has this story on Alberto Quiroz, who was sentenced to ten years in state prison for the events in the 2017 death of CHP Officer Lucas Chellew who died as a result of injuries sustained in a high-speed chase with Quiroz through South Sacramento.\u00a0 Quiroz had 5 previous failures to appear on unrelated charges and previous cases.
