When Governor Jerry Brown took office the feds told him to reduce California’s prison population or face sanctions, so the Governor came up with the “re-alignment” program re-aligning state prison inmates to county jails.
A lot of bad boys, and even a few bad girls, now go out to the Mendocino County Jail on Low Gap Road, Ukiah, to do their state time. Before realignment they got on the bus for San Quentin, the ladies for Chowchilla.
Has re-alignment been a local success, if success is the word we want here?
Maybe, but some bad boys seem to miss San Quentin.
