Attorneys representing the families of Oregon murder victims slammed Democrat Gov. Kate Brown Friday for ignoring families as she pushes for clemency in some cases.
"What the governor has decided is that she is the super-legislature and she's going to change the law across the board and retroactively release people who are murderers, rapists, and assaulters, who were convicted and sent to prison with specific sentence," Mannix said.
"She has sent 500 cases to the Department of Correction and said go ahead and release these people early. That is not how the law works, and we are asking a court to mandate that the governor follow the law and look at each case on its merits."
