Paroled Sex Offender Kills Pregnant Woman

(Riverside, California) This story demonstrates that some criminals are so dangerous that they should never be paroled.

From Inland Southern California:

A parolee with a history of violence and mental illness was indicted Friday in the slayings of a pregnant Riverside woman and her unborn child, and prosecutors said they will seek the death penalty in the case.

Tony Lee Reynolds, 23, was indicted on 14 felonies, including the killings of Estela Perez and her unborn daughter, Michelle. Perez was sexually assaulted and stabbed to death March 31 in her home near the city's Fairmount Park. [ed. note - Perez was stabbed at least 33 times, including in the eye.]

At a morning news conference, police and prosecutors described the Perez slaying as heinous. Perez, 29, had her throat slashed, and she had been stabbed numerous times in the stomach, legs, and chest, court records show.

District Attorney Grover Trask called Reynolds the "poster boy" for the death penalty. Trask said the case illustrates "the laws concerning parolees and sex offenders are what I'd call too liberal."
