Supports public safety and addressing root causes of crime; opposes the construction of a costly 3,000-bed Franklin County prison, instead favoring rehabilitation, workforce training, and reentry programs that reduce repeat offenses, and ensuring correctional facilities are properly staffed with supported workers.

“Fred believes public safety is a must, and families must be protected while also addressing the root causes of crime. He will stop the construction of the costly 3,000-bed Franklin County prison that fails to solve long-term issues and instead focus on rehabilitation, workforce training, and reentry programs that reduce repeat offenses. He will also ensure correctional facilities are properly staffed and that those working in the system are supported and protected.”
