SAN QUENTIN, Calif. — Visiting San Quentin, California's oldest prison once home to a gas chamber used to execute inmates on the nation's largest death row, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday touted a plan to overhaul the facility in favor of a rehabilitation-centered approach that could become a model for the world.
"We want to be the preeminent restorative justice facility in the world — that’s the goal," Newsom said from an on-site warehouse that will house his envisioned programs. "San Quentin is iconic, San Quentin is known worldwide. If San Quentin can do it, it can be done anywhere else." But it has also become known for innovative programs where inmates can get a degree, write for an award-winning newspaper, study the arts and get job training in preparation for reentering society.
About 800 people are released from San Quentin every year, and the goal is to keep them from committing another crime and ending up back in the system, Newsom said.
