You understand that the overwhelming majority of people who are arrested for allegedly committing a crime will be released at some point, right? As in, over 99.9% of them?
True, but most WILL re-offend and rather quickly. Like, I said before, it's not easy to land in prison and they have most likely been convicted multiple times along with having committed numerous undetected crimes.
They already were most likely exposed to COVID in prison so what exactly is the point of releasing them early at this point? To overload the parole officers even more?

There's zero evidence of this. In fact, as far as we can tell, your odds of being infected in prison, up to this point, are lower than for those who are out. The impetus for trying to release people is that, once the prisons are truly infected, which is only a matter of time, there will be no protecting anyone, and the prisons simply aren't designed to handle that kind of medical emergency.
