SANTA ANA, Calif. (CNS)—Seven sex offenders arrested for alleged parole violations were released from custody, apparently as part of the state Supreme Court’s efforts to keep jail populations lower than usual during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
The sex offenders were released months ahead of schedule, despite alleged violations such as cutting off their GPS monitors and tampering with their tracking devices, according to Kimberly Edds of the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.
