    This has 100% to do with homelessness
    because he lived in the homeless shelter

    Mr. Nash, 25, whose last known address was a men’s homeless shelter in the Bowery, was arraigned on first-degree charges of murder, burglary and sexually motivated burglary. A judge ordered him held without bail, and prosecutors said he was facing a sentence of up to 25 years to life in prison if convicted.

    The police doesn't make the decision to release people.

    Homelessness is symptom not the cause. The lack of support of mental health is one of the biggest is issues and threats when it comes to the problem.

    Homelessness is a huge problem in Seattle (where I live) and other cities in the PNW. I'd never realized the scale of how bad it can be until I moved up here, never saw anything like it in Houston or Austin.

    Chin specifically criticized Bragg's policies, arguing Lee's murder could have been prevented.

    "From a landlord’s perspective, from storeowner’s perspective, we’re terrified of this, his policies and what not. Armed robbery of a store is now a petty larceny? What insanity is this?" he said. "This guy, his rap sheet is a mile long, he should have been behind bars. Assault? Menacing? How is he out? This is outrageous."

    "My family, we have owned this building since the 1970s, my grandparents are Chinese immigrants," Chin said. "They came from China, they built themselves. We built up this community. And to see it get torn down so fast by one district attorney, it’s just heart-wrenching. And a disgrace to all of us in the community."
