A grandson begged Spanberger's parole board not to release the man who broke into his grandparents' home and murdered them. The convict was serving three life sentences.
Spanberger’s parole board released him anyway.
🚨New: Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s hand-picked parole board released eight out of ten felons during Thursday’s parole meeting.
These are people who were convicted of murder, rape, robbery and child abuse. Many of them had decades left on their life sentences.
WJLA analyzed all of Spanberger’s parole board’s decisions since their first meeting. I found that out of the 205 discretionary and geriatric parole cases the board considered, Spanberger’s board granted 48 felons parole. That’s almost ONE in FOUR felons who requested early release being granted parole.
It's a significant jump compared to former Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s parole board.
