He's saying that we aren't used to catch and release methods that he learned from Chittenden County, working as Sarah George's chief deputy state's attorney.

For example, the state wanted Shawn Rich held without bail after he was arrested as a suspect in a murder with three active arrest warrants. His criminal record of criminal record includes nine failures to appear, six convictions for violating court orders, 11 felony convictions, 37 misdemeanor convictions, four assaulting crime convictions, 29 parole violations and 11 violations of probation.

He was released on $300 bail.
