RIKERS update:
According to my best tally, the courts & 5 city DAs have cleared for release 125 Rikers inmates in last few days.
Mayor de Blasio is saying about 75 have actually been released.
The city had been looking at several 100 releases.
Why the discrepancy?
The process of releasing Rikers inmates isn't easy, it seems.
It includes the Mayor's office of crim justice recommending inmates for release. The DA's signing off the releases. And then a judge approving them.
There's a separate track for parole violators thru the state.
Then the Dept of Corrections has to process the actual release.
