"Jared Kushner was the one that masterminded and pushed this legislation through," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, who vehemently opposed the bill from the start, told Carlson.

"I think that the president was misled," Judd said, "I don't believe that the president believed or knew that violent criminals were going to be turned back onto society or he wouldn't have signed that bill."

PROVIDENCE — A notorious crack dealer and onetime gang leader released from a life sentence this year under federal drug-sentencing reforms is now accused of fatally stabbing a man on Federal Hill.

Police are searching for Joel Francisco, 41, on an arrest warrant in the death of Troy Pine, 46.

Police said Pine, of Providence, was stabbed to death Wednesday night inside the Nara Lounge, a hookah lounge on Atwells Avenue.

Francisco, who authorities called the crown prince of the Almighty Latin Kings in 2005, was sentenced to life in prison for trafficking crack cocaine. But he was released from federal prison in February, after President Donald Trump signed the First Step Act, a criminal justice reform law.
