SACRAMENTO – Tomorrow, Thursday, August 22, victim advocates, law enforcement officials, and Legislative Republicans will convene at the State Capitol to voice their opposition to Senate Bill 94 (Cortese). The bill would allow individuals serving life sentences without parole for murder to have their sentences overturned. Critics argue that this could result in some of the most violent offenders being released and compel victims' families to endure parole hearings.
