This is a terrible tragedy and awful end to a brutal year. It is a system failure that resulted in irreversible harm to two families. My heart goes out to the families of the victims. We will hold the man who did this accountable. We will support the families of the victims

We will make changes to ensure that people on parole receive the supervision and structure needed from parole to prevent this kind of tragedy from recurring.https://www.sfchronicle.com/crime/article/Two-pedestrians-killed-in-hit-and-run-in-S-F-s-15839481.php …

Replying to @chesaboudin
A clear explanation of how the parole system works wld be welcome. I'd imagine under-staffing is an issue. In the Sunset, property crime (hot prowl) is the latest madness. I also understand it's very expensive/time consuming to bring a case to trial, hence parole is only option.

The D.A's office (as was explained to me in the past) would negotiate some felonies down to misdemeanor if the person arrested agreed to parole. This is b/c the D.A. doesn't have the resources to bring all cases to trial. They have to focus on more serious crimes.

I cant read the link to the newspaper article but surley, coming out on parole involves many angencies to review, evaluate & assess an offender’s record to see if he is viable to be released on parole? The Probation Service plays a big part too in monitoring on release? So sad.
