SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA - A San Francisco judge is considering granting early release to a 91-time felon just five years after he allegedly killed two women while driving high on meth.
Career criminal Troy McAlister was arrested in 2020 after he fatally struck two women, Hanako Abe, 27, and Elizabeth Platt, 60, on New Year's Eve in a crosswalk, according to authorities.
McAlister, who was on parole and allegedly operating a stolen vehicle while high on meth and under the influence of alcohol, is facing vehicular manslaughter charges over their senseless deaths.
But now the alleged killer could see the light of day again as Superior Court Judge Michael Begert is set to possibly have McAlister avoid prosecution through a diversion program.
On Friday, McAlister appeared in court with his attorney Scott Grant who requested his client's case be transferred to Drug Court, an intensive treatment program overseen by Begert.
