New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) reportedly wants to release some violent criminals as the state battles a severe prison staffing crisis.
Last month, Department of Corrections Commissioner Daniel Martuscello III announced that the state had fired 2,000 corrections officers for participating in an "illegal" 22-day strike. Prior to the walkout, the state's prison system was already understaffed by roughly 2,000, according to Hochul.
