Amid the coronavirus crisis, thousands of inmates are being released from prisons across the country. They claim it's an attempt to curb the spread of coronavirus. How could this possibly be a good idea, though?
Joseph Edwards Williams, 26-years-old, was freed from a Florida prison on March 19. However, he was arrested again on Monday for allegedly committing a murder the day after he got out.
The Hillsborough County Jail inmate is now facing second-degree murder charges, WFLA reported.
Williams was released from the county jail along with about 163 other inmates whom officials deemed “non-violent” in an effort to prevent coronavirus outbreaks in the prison.
According to law enforcement, Williams was involved with a March 20 shooting homicide. The shooting occurred just a day after Williams was released from prison. In a statement to the media, Hillsborough Sheriff Chad Chronister said Williams “took advantage” of the jailbreak policy.
“There is no question Joseph Williams took advantage of this health emergency to commit crimes while he was out of jail awaiting resolution of a low-level, non-violent offense,” Chronister said. “As a result, I call on the State Attorney to prosecute this defendant to the fullest extent of the law.”
Williams was previously arrested and serving time for possession of heroin and drug paraphernalia. Now, Williams is being held on a more than $250,000 bond.
He should have never been let out in the first place.
