Fury over the parole release of a child sex predator has now made its way to the state legislature, where Democrats are moving closer to the middle to address a loophole that let it happen.

The elderly parole program allows inmates over the age of 50 who have served 20 years to petition for release. The proposal, from Democrat Stephanie Nguyen, would raise the age to 65.
