"People don't feel safe in their neighborhoods and this is because of soft-on-crime policies," Johnson told "Special Report" on Wednesday, "I'm running against a lieutenant governor who, together with the governor, wanted to reduce our prison population by 50%.
Lieutenant Governor Barnes said that's now sexy. No, it's dangerous." Johnson condemned the release of 884 criminals, referencing the harsh nature of their crimes.
