Do the liberal judges who unleash maniacs at the public’s throat at least feel some remorse for the senseless bloodshed they cause? For an answer, we look to Chicago, where career criminal Alphonso Talley was released by moonbat judge John Lyke with an ankle monitor and then murdered police officer John Bartholomew.

Via CWBChicago:

The decision to release a five-time felon with four pending felony cases, including two violent robberies, on electronic monitoring was not a mistake, Cook County’s chief judge says, even though that man is now accused of going on to murder a Chicago police officer and gravely wounding the fallen officer’s partner.

“I wouldn’t call it a mistake,” Judge Charles Beach told WGN’s Ben Bradley in an interview on Wednesday. “The judge made the best decision with what was in front of them at the time, right? Unfortunately, you know, we’ll go back to that concept: How do you predict what another human being is going to do?”

Retired Riverside, Illinois Police Chief Tom Weitzel provides the answer:

“Start with the obvious—his criminal history.”

Talley is far from the only violent criminal released with an ankle monitor in Cook County.

CWB Chicago was the first to report on Tuesday that Beach’s office had revealed 8% of the people on its ankle monitoring program — about 244 people, most likely with pending felony charges — have gone AWOL, with nobody knowing where they are. …

As of April 3, the court’s electronic monitoring program included 21 people with pending murder cases, 13 facing attempted murder charges, 103 charged with criminal sexual assault, 78 charged with robbery, and 16 with pending carjacking cases. How many of those, if any, were missing is unknown, and Beach’s office has not responded to multiple requests for that information.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson informs us that “we cannot incarcerate our way out of violence” because “it is racist.” Plenty on the bench are eager to implement his ideology.
