People do bad things. Things worth being sent to prison for. A lot of those people who were let out were Pedophiles, and others who did not perform a violent crime, but are still bad enough people that we would want them locked up. The fact that we emptied our prisons in the first place was a sign of sheer stupidity, and now we are importing them from out of state? With so many prisons closing, the limit for overcrowding in the prisons will be pushed beyond belief, and most of those prisoners who were let out will just wind up back at the prisons again, and they cycle will reset, only this time, we will have prisoners from out of state, who are potentially much worse than who we already have, will be set free in out state.
