It must be very tough to loose a family member, especially if that family member is your child. But it must be even more tougher, when your child is murdered by the son of a former California State Assembly Speaker and then to later discover that the Governor himself, decides to commute the prison term of that murderer, just because of politics and power. That's the case here, as discussed in one of last week's blogs.
Literally just hours before his term expired last week, now-former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger reduced the prison term of Estaban Nunez for the murder of Luis Santos, a student at the University of California San Diego. Nunez is the son of former California Assembly Speaker, Fabian Nunez.
Well after all of this generated a great deal of controversy and anger from the Santos family, Governor Schwarzenegger finally decided to issue an apology letter to the victim's family. In his apology letter to the father of Luis Santos, Mr. Schwarzenegger, trying to literally BS his way around the fact that this is all about politics, stated that "I understand why you may never comprehend or agree with my decision."
While it is totally understandable to issue an apology after a week of dodging questions, Mr. Schwarzenegger was reluctant to even answer any questions about why he chose Esteban Nunez, over the thousands of prisoners in the State of California that could have received a reduction in their prison sentence for lesser crimes, nor any elaboration on the fact that he just so happened to be the former Speaker's son.
Its a complete disgrace.
While a family continues to grieve due to the loss of this young man who was murdered for no apparent reason, Schwarzenegger just added more hurt and fuel to an already burning fire, and instead of just coming forward at the very beginning to make his decision, Schwarzenegger hid out like a little child for over a week before finally deciding to send a letter to the family about his decision, but still refused to answer any explanation about why Nunez was chosen out of thousands of prisoners.
What a despicable and disgusting person Schwarzenegger is....
And its worth repeating, he is a despicable and disgusting person.
