quote:

For Johnson’s family, the past few days have been a dream turned nightmare. "We're thinking, this is a gift from god, that he get out early," said Johnson’s mother, Francel, who helped bond him out of jail. Since discovering his mistaken release, law enforcement have questioned Johnson's family members in hopes of finding where he is. His mother's greatest fear, she said, is that they kill him if they find him. "It's not his fault, it's not his fault. He got released," Johnson said. "You told him he was no longer your property, he bonded out, and now you're hunting him like a dog, like he escaped from prison or something. But no he didn't escape. You let him go. You all opened the doors and let him out of there."

He's 32 and has to serve 40 years, he'd probably rather go out in a blaze of glory

How do you "accidentally" release a convicted murderer from prison? WTF. There's a much larger issue here than the police hunting him down and his mom whining about it being unfair. There's a murderer on the loose, and the state let him out free and easy. If he kills anyone while he's out (and many criminals would since they know they're going to jail for life anyway), the state will have that on their hands, and probably a large wrongful death lawsuit

How does one "Bond out" of DCI? It's not like the penitentiary is prison.

You bond out of prison while waiting for your trial.

You cannot bond out of the penitentiary once convicted.

I don't get it.

I've been to DCI to speak on numerous occasions. This baffles me that he got released.

You "bond out" by paying off the guy who let him out. I'm sure that guy saw his file, which according to the article had info that showed how there should be more there and the guy should have checked on it. I'm betting the guy who let him out told this murderer to pay this "bond" directly to him, and he'd let him out

How is saying "they let him go, he didn't escape" wrong?

It's not his fault

Dude knew that he was serving 40 years and just got popped for battery of a guard at the prison. He knew he wasn't up for early release. I wonder if the person who processed this happened to know the family. Obviously someone who struggles with the concept of not killing someone and not obtaining firearms illegally would probably struggle to process that this too is illegal though.

So should they just forget about him now that they've discovered their mistake?

not at all. They SHOULD be hunting for him. But, she's not wrong saying it's not his fault that they released him.
