Convicted Bay Area Serial Rapist To Be Freed By Year’s End

A convicted serial rapist’s scheduled release from a state prison hospital in Los Angeles County has stirred up controversy.

A Santa Clara County judge has ruled that Christopher Evans Hubbart, who was convicted in two separate trials decades ago for committing 34 rapes, 15 of them in the Bay Area, should be conditionally released by the end of the year.

In 1972, Hubbart was first sent to prison for a string of violent rapes in Southern California that occurred in Orange County and the San Gabriel Valley.

34 rapes? This guy should never see the light of day again....never mind being fucking released...He's a sadistic rapist with a mental condition that apparently passed his pysch eval this year so he's eligible for release..the fact that he has raped AGAIN every time he gets parole doesn't seem to have registered with anyone in the decision making process...

and I've learned that the laws regarding mental illness/impairment in the Bay Area are incredibly... How shall I put this?... forgiving.

One of my neighbors backed another neighbor into a fence (over a dog poop situation), and I overheard the responding police officers explain to the woman attacked that the attacker is an "888," which yet another neighbor explained is some kind of mental designation. Anyway, the police just warned the attacker that they've had too many complaints about her and next time they would have to take her in.

Apparently, this woman doesn't even wait for a dog walker to get out a poop bag before she runs out the door screaming at the top of her lungs. And that's when the dog poops on the sidewalk. Imagine how she'd react if it touched her driveway.

i love SF, and I love the fact that the mentally different are given the benefit of the doubt, but a violent rapist out on the streets? Seriously?
