Thanks to their helping to elect a Trumpanzee governor.
This has nothing to do with Youngkin or Trump, it is all Descano.
It's not Descano either. It looks like a judge (or maybe judges) is most responsible.
Not necessarily, what were Descano’s ACA’s requesting at any of these prior probation revocation hearings? Did they ask that this guy get another chance or did they ask that his probation be revoked and he be held? Pretty sure that Descano’s office authorized the posting of bond in the most recent case versus asking for a hold. Progressive prosecutors love to blame judges but often it’s like a recent similar situation in LA where the prosecutors are not doing their jobs and then blame the judges when it goes south.

The question I have in response to this is why it isn't included in the news articles? Because it's important and obviously easy to slant this as a prosecutorial failure if you just conveniently leave out that the judge overruled the prosecutor asking for the guy to be put in jail.
Only if you cherry-pick a single incident.

Agee was arrested and charged with burglary, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and brandishing."
But the Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office says they didn’t have enough to move forward with the case. According to an email sent to detectives, Agee’s gun was never recovered and prosecutors requested additional evidence. The case was dismissed through nolle prosequi which means charges can be brought back.
Earlier this month, Agee was in court on a probation violation for the stolen car case, which court sources say had gotten pushed back, and even though the judge found he had violated his probation, the judge decided not to lock him up
on August 12, Fairfax County police say they caught Agee with more than a pound of marijuana in his car in addition to paraphernalia. Police say he was charged with felony possession of marijuana and intent to distribute. He was later released on a $2,000 bond, despite his probation terms from the 2018 case
So, a judge was responsible in only one of these.
The first was the prosecutor refusing to go forward on a gun charge. The last is a failure of the magistrate system.
