Governor Newsome gave early release to a convicted mass shooter, became friends with him, was photographed in public with him, and got him a cushy government funded job.
Meanwhile, Newsome has shown zero concern for the innocent victim who was paralyzed by this convicted mass shooter.

A former gangster who was sentenced to 162 years in prison for shooting and paralyzing a 16-year-old girl in 2012 is now working in the California capitol.
Jarad Nava, now 28, works as an assistant in the Department of Public Safety and is an advocate of prison reform. He was featured in a Los Angeles Times profile Thursday and credits California's Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom for his early release.
In 2012, while drunk and high, he shot into a car carrying the relatives of a rival gang member. One of the victims was 16-year-old Yesenia Castro, who was shot in the back.
After trial, he was sentenced to 162 years in prison on four counts of attempted murder.
In the years that followed, he was featured in a prison reform documentary that highlighted his case and the plight of young offenders who the filmmakers felt had been unfairly represented.
Yesenia, his victim, was interviewed for the film and said she wanted him to spend 50 years in prison.
'When they arrested him, I felt relieved. I don't want him to be dead or anything, I just want him to pay a price,' she said.
Despite that, his sentence was commuted to 10 years by Gavin Newsom. He eventually walked free in 2020, eight years after the shooting.
Meanwhile, Newsome has shown zero concern for the innocent victim who was paralyzed by this convicted mass shooter.
