Republicans roast Gavin Newsom’s parole board as another pedophile may go free from prison
NY Post
Republicans in the California Legislature rallied with victims’ advocates Wednesday to blast Gov. Gavin Newsom and demand changes to state parole laws as another notorious child sex predator neared possible release.
More than 50 people gathered outside the California Board of Parole Hearings in Sacramento just before commissioners were set to revisit a November decision granting parole to Gregory Lee Vogelsang, a Roseville man convicted of dozens of child molestation and kidnapping charges.

The closely watched decision comes just weeks after David Allen Funston, 64, was granted parole under California’s Elderly Parole Program.
His release was blocked at the 11th hour when Funston was hit with new criminal charges just hours before he was due to be released.
Assemblymember David Tangipa was among those condemning California’s early release policies, which critics say have accelerated parole reviews for violent child predators.
