The
formerly great state of California is getting ready to move its death
row prisoners into eight other state prisons and out of death row at San
Quentin.
These transfers
will be voluntary and will allow condemned prisoner to program more
fully than they could otherwise. It should be noted that our fearless
leader, Gavin Newsom, has suspended executions in CA and had the death
chamber physically dismantled. He has not had the balls to commute the
sentences, but he may do so as a going away present on his way out of
office in either two years or eight years, depending on which way the
wind blows. He has already said he will allow zero executions while he
is governor. He said that AFTER he got elected of course.
State
voters recently endorsed a ballot initiative to SPEED UP executions, but King Gavin does not give a fuck what the peasants want. They are just
peasants.
All of
California's condemned female prisoners are at Chowchilla and must stay
there as it is the only female prison with a "hot" (lethal electrified)
fence. They can, however, get non-death row housing so they can program
more fully if they want to.
The eight prisons the male condemned prisoners are allowed to transfer to also have "hot" fences.
When
Newsom put the moratorium on executions he promised victim's rights
groups that he would take no further action regarding condemned
prisoners. He lied. Huge surprise there.
It is expected that a number of prisoners will prefer to remain in condemned prisoner housing for personal security reasons.
