careful= how do you know if Rodriquez was a person of color or not; but that's really not the case. I cited where Fetterman stated publicly what his intent was in the changes to the incarceration system. Originally Posted by eyecu2Changes to the incarceration system - please.
Releasing cold blooded murderers back on the streets goes far beyond changes to the incarceration system unless you are a criminal like Fetterman who supports his fellow criminals
Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. and Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman last year cast the lone vote in a failed bid to free a man convicted of murdering a student.
Alexis Rodriguez is serving a life sentence in Dallas after he was one of five suspects convicted of first-degree murder in the 1989 killing of Sean Daily, a high school junior and the son of a Philadelphia police officer.
Rodriguez, then 18, and the others were accused of beating Daily with a baseball bat before fatally shooting him in the back in a gang-related, revenge motivated attack. The killing sparked racial unrest in Philadelphia at the time, because the victim was White while the suspects were majority Hispanic.
The Pennsylvania Board of Pardons, which Fetterman chairs, held a public hearing for Rodriguez on Dec. 1, 2021, and Fetterman cast the lone vote in favor of commuting the convicted murderer’s sentence.
