Earlier, we told you how Gov. Gavin Newsom commuted the sentences of 548 California death row inmates. This was, once again, an undemocratic move by Newsom. In both 2012 and 2016, California voters rejected ballot initiatives to repeal the state's death penalty. Proposition 34 (2012) was rejected 52-48; it would have abolished the death penalty and replaced it with life in prison without parole. Proposition 62 was rejected by similar margins, 53-47, which would have sped up the appeals process for the death penalty.

Despite that, Newsom commuted these sentences. And under his get-out-of-jail-early scheme, some of these monsters will likely walk free eventually.

Richard Allen Davis snuck into Polly Klaas' home during a slumber party. He held her at knifepoint in front of her friends before kidnapping her. Davis then raped Klaas and killed her before dumping her body, which was found two months later.

At his sentencing, the monster taunted Klaas' father, Marc; Davis claimed the girl told him her father sexually abused her. Marc Klaas lunged at Davis in court.

Robert Rhoades kidnapped, raped, and murdered 8-year-old Michael Lyons as Lyons walked home from school. Rhoades' sentence was also commuted.

Christina Buttons said she waited 24 years to see her former neighbor, David Westerfield, face justice. Westerfield kidnapped and murdered 7-year-old Danielle van Dam. Westerfield abducted van Dam from her bedroom in the middle of the night in 2002. Her body was found 25 days later, too decomposed to test for sexual assault.

"But we all knew that's why he took her," Buttons wrote on X. "He was also convicted of possessing child sexual abuse material found on his computer.

"In the 20 days between her disappearance and his arrest, I developed insomnia and spent those nights walking around the house checking the locks on the doors and windows. I followed the trial closely. As we learned the horrific details, I couldn't stop thinking about what she endured during the 3 days he had her," Buttons added. "In 2019, the California Supreme Court unanimously upheld his conviction and death sentence. Shortly afterward, Newsom imposed his moratorium. And now he does THIS."

Gavin Newsom does not care about victims or their families.
