SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — Critics heaped scorn on Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn on Monday over a secret prison program that allowed hundreds of inmates — some violent offenders — to be released early, including some who only spent 11 days behind bars.
An Associated Press report released Sunday showed that more than 850 inmates — including repeat drunken drivers, drug users, and even people convicted of battery and weapons violations — had been released early under the program since September.
