SHOULD KILLINGS BY RELEASED CONVICTS BE ADDED TO CORONAVIRUS DEATH TOLL?


Counting coronavirus deaths is getting to be a pain in the ass. Are people dying from coronavirus or are they just dying with it? Can we even trust the tests? Who knows!

Then there are cases like this, where a convict in Florida, released from jail to prevent the spread of the virus in crowded prisons shot a man dead the very next day.

As reported by the New York Post:

A Florida man released from jail last month to help limit coronavirus outbreaks in county lockups was arrested again Monday — accused of murdering a man the day after his release, a report said.

Joseph Edwards Williams was facing drug charges when he and 163 other inmates — considered low-level offenders — were sprung from Hillsborough County Jail on March 19, according to WFLA, citing the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Authorities believe Williams was the triggerman who fatally shot a man the next day in the Progress Village area, the report said.

Williams was arrested on a warrant Monday in Gibsonton.

Sounds coronavirus-related to me. How many more cases like this are out there? Possibly thousands.
