I know at her age she is not much of a threat to society but I think she should not have been released.

I did look into this further after your post. Apparently when the death penalty was abolished in California, their terms were changed to life imprisonment with option of parole. Newsom was appealing the parole whenever it cam up and eventually he stopped, and thus they are being released now.

Squeaky Fromme was paroled a couple of years (?) ago and she is living in upstate NY peacefully and I guess Newsom expects Van-Houten to do the same. Atkins passed away in 2009 and Kerwinkel was also paroled last year but Newsom blocked it.
