I see only one side. RELEASE if holding Mother Earth's natural herb is what they are imprisoned for. No one hurt no crime done.

You will find in the criminal prison system only the worst offenders are released such as murders and rapist. Then it will be publicized in the public.

It was explained to me by a common law lawyer that it is in the money making prisons system to let the worst go. Publicity can be sited, we need more prisons, more cops, more this, more that. Fear is released. I did google and pulled up the first thing, forgive me for not reading it. It had the title I sought. https://www.ranker.com/list/serial-killers-who-are-free/ranker-crime
