“It’s appalling to me the variety of murderers, individuals who have dedicated violent crimes that [John Fetterman] has really set free … that’s what folks don’t get — he’s a really harmful selection,” Guilfoyle stated.
“It jogs my memory of the times after we discuss Dukakis. [Fetterman] really set free two Hortons — two murderers — onto the streets and I feel that it’s essential and that we drill down on this and resolve it as a result of this man desires to be in the USA Senate,” she continued.

Bush ran an advert noting that the Massachusetts Democrat governor had supported a “weekend jail go” program that permit out convicted killer Willie Horton, who went on to kidnap a younger couple, stab the person, and rape his girlfriend.
In Fetterman’s case, as Breitbart Information reported, he has overseen the discharge of 13 convicted murderers whereas heading the Pennsylvania Board of Pardons. Two of those that had their life sentences commuted are convicted killers Dennis Horton and Lee Horton.

“How is there any justification to let folks out like that?” Guilfoyle stated of the jail releases overseen by Fetterman. “… you could have somebody right here who has gone out of his manner, really prioritized, releasing violent criminals. And that’s the very last thing Pennsylvania wants, particularly once you see what’s occurring with the violent crime in Philadelphia.”
Guilfoyle stated voters must be involved concerning the violent crimes that these launched from jail by Fetterman’s Board of Pardons might presumably go on to commit.
“Individuals which are launched which are criminals like that, they don’t seem to be in a position to be rehabilitated in any manner, they return out and do what they do finest, which is commit violent offenses,” Guilfoyle stated. “It’s not hypothesis, it’s reality … that’s the case. That’s the reason we put folks away for a very long time or for all times that commit these sorts of atrocities.”
