My Argument
The law will ultimately shift inmates convicted of offenses deemed nonserious, nonviolent and non-sexual (the "triple-nons" for short) to county jails. Keeping that population out of state prisons would save California's general fund an estimated $458 million, according to the governor's office, and significantly ease overcrowding at the state corrections facilities.
Matt Cate, head of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, told the Los Angeles Times that the prison system last year received 47,000 inmates for parole violations, sentenced to no more than 90 days. Those inmates receive expensive physical and mental screenings that county jails are not required to perform."My biggest concern is the state needs to save money so bad that it might negatively impact the counties," being under post supervision by the county can get someone irritated because all they care about is the money and not our needs,like jobs,transportation or even referrals I myself have a hard time making it to my appointment once a month there.I rather be a parolee because I get more helpfrom the state than the county.
