Even while Epstein drama is consuming the country, David Allen Funston is being set loose.
Funston became notorious for luring children as young as four years old in Sacramento into his car with candy and dolls then raping them. A little girl had a knife held to her throat while he raped her so badly she bled. One 5-year-old girl was raped, beaten and left by the side of the road. He raped a little boy and kidnapped two sisters, 4 and 5, before he was finally stopped.
Funston was known as “the monster parents fear the most” and was sentenced to three life terms in prison in 1999. But in 2020, even as he was having surfers arrested and small business owners shut down, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed AB 3234 into law which took the state’s already generous ‘elder parole law’ and redefined ‘elder’ as being any criminal over the age of fifty.
Now, Funston, who was convicted of 16 counts of kidnapping and child molestation, is being granted ‘elder parole’ under Newsom’s law to the horror of the children he once abused.
California’s original ‘elder parole’, passed by state Democrats and signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown, had jettisoned life sentences for criminals over sixty. Newsom’s expanded addition lowered the age to fifty and effectively eliminated life sentences for most criminals.
Including the child rapists now potentially headed for the exits.
Other child rapists who benefited from Newsom’s free pass for pedophiles included Israel Ceja, a Mexican convicted in 2000 of over 20 counts of forcible rape for crimes that began when his victim was 11-years-old and included attempted murder and other assaults to induce a miscarriage, who qualified for parole despite a sentence of 139 years in prison.
Michael Dausey, who raped his 14-year-old niece at knifepoint, and had previously raped a minor in Oregon, has also qualified for parole.
Cody Woodsen Klemp, who was sentenced to 170 years in prison after raping at least 5 women and girls, after charges that included 20 counts of committing a lewd and lascivious act on a child, 10 counts of rape, and 10 counts of forced oral copulation on a child, was deemed by the parole board to be at ‘low risk for violence’ and was set for release. The decision was only overturned after major protests by victims, one of whom warned, “He will absolutely rape again. He has been committing rapes since he was eighteen years old. The only time he did not rape was when he was in prison.”
Republican Senate Minority Leader Brian Jones introduced SB 286, also known as Mary-Bella’s Law, in an attempt to block rapists, child abusers and murderers from qualifying for elder parole at an appearance with key victims including those who had been assaulted by Charles Mix, sentenced to 350 years in prison for the 2005 kidnapping of a 5-year-old girl, and Cameron Hooker, of the ‘girl in the box’ story, also suspected of the murder of Marie Elizabeth Spannhake.
As of February 2026, the bill has been blocked in the California state senate.
While most of these predators have not yet been released, Alvin Ray Quarles, known as the ‘Bolder Than Most Rapist’, who had raped a series of women and was diagnosed with sexual sadism disorder, voyeuristic disorder and antisocial personality disorder, was released despite the pleas of his victims, only to be rearrested again for an undisclosed parole violation.
Merle Wade Wakefield, convicted of lewd acts on a child and rape by force, who was also classified as a violent sexual predator, was released and has not yet been rearrested.
While individual communities, victims and DAs continue to fight the tidal wave of rapists and child molesters headed for the exit because at the age of fifty they’re considered ‘elders’, and pleading with Gov. Gavin Newsom for mercy, many California Democrats are doubling down.
Aubrey Rodriguez (he/they), a former legislative director with State Sen. Catherine Blakespear, and a legislative advocate for the state ACLU, claimed that he would feel comfortable living next door to a rapist. “We believe people have the capacity to change, and that we don’t want to sentence them for the rest of their lives for a mistake that they committed in the past.”
Kim Su, of Uncommon Law, a pro-crime group backed by the Obama Foundation that represents some of the criminals being set loose, suggested that victims, some of whom had been sexually abused as children, were just suffering from irrational “stranger danger”.
Even while victims have to go it alone, pro-crime groups like Uncommon Law are backed by millions in funding from radical groups and taxpayers.
Uncommon Law received a $3 million grant from the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development. Gov. Newsom has not been able to answer what exactly freeing sex predators and other criminals to commit more crimes has to do with business development.
Gov. Gavin Newsom, whose eyes are on the 2028 presidential election, has been careful to skirt parole approvals for truly controversial cases like the RFK assassin, and Frederick Woods, the millionaire kidnapper who buried a bus full of kids under the earth and had Newsom’s father lobby for him, but set loose David Weidert, who forced a developmentally disabled man to dig his own grave, beat him with a shovel, stabbed him with a knife, choked him with a telephone wire and then buried him alive. And he may play a game of blocking parole for individual child predators if the protests are loud enough, but it was his signature that enabled all of this.
A 50-year-old child rapist is not an “elder” and the only reason that the monsters sentenced to over a century in prison are being tracked for parole is Newsom’s signature on a bill.
Gov. Gavin Newsom, like other California politicians, including Rep. Ro Khanna, have tried to exploit the Epstein case, but California Democrats have paved the way for the release of abusers who make Epstein look like Mother Teresa, monsters who abused little girls and boys, who used knives and weapons, who made them bleed and locked up victims for years.
Newsom has a lot to say about Epstein, but the Clinton-linked sex predator was 66-years-old at the time of his death and 54-years-old during his original arrest. Under Newsom’s law, California would not have considered him a dangerous predator to be locked away for life in prison, but an “elder”.

We always knew that the commie left like Newscum never wanted the death penalty for any crime, no matter how evil.
Now we know that the far left also never intends for any inmate to serve a life sentence in California.
Charles Manson, from his grave: “hey Newscum, where were you when I was 50 years old and sitting in a prison cell in California?”
JD Vance: “well, this will give me about a 10% boost in the future polls for the 2028 election!”
For our country’s sake, let’s hope Vance is astute enough and bold, daring and ballsy enough to throw Newscum’s record in his face early and often to get Newscum to take himself out of the race.
Wanna know the real Gavin Newscum? Ask a California residence. I’m sure that folks who don’t live in California only know what the national liberal MSM reports about him and the goings on in California.
I’m sure they would be very interest in hearing and knowing about Newscum from California residents perspective. We get full experience of that lying, rich, entitled, arrogant, preening peacock, self righteous bum up close and personal 24/7/365.
Now excuse while I go hurl. Merely speaking of that worthless douche bag nauseates me!!
And what makes Vance qualified? Just because he is Trump’s VP? That is a shallow reason. VPs have made terrible Presidents. This is a perfect example of why Republicans lose midterms, they only are concerned about Presidential elections We need to pay attention to the midterms not speculate about 2028. Vance is the Big Tech Republican candidate whose only qualification is being Trump’s VP. His track record before is nonexistent. Vance is the Republican version of Obama, nicely packaged to have all the ‘right’ characteristics.
As for Newscum he needs to be in jail not on a political stage.
The next presidential election is three years away and by the time J.D. Vance finishes his four year term as Vice President, he’ll have had four years of Executive experience and four years of training by President Trump. He’s no Joke Bidumb or Heels Up Harris. He won’t be a proved seditionist and failure with an eight year record of incompetence and sabotage like Brokeback Hasbeen Obama.
The only reason RINOs and Republicans lose midterms is because most voters are STUPID, particularly D-Bag voters – who cheat like the motherfuckers and fatherfuckers they are.
Anybody not concerned by a destructive creature like Newscum is a RETARD and any comparison between the highly intelligent and capable Vance and the low IQ and inadequate Bareback Hasbeen Obunghole is Absolute Idiota Cortez level retarded.
Change your screen name to “Drive By,” D-Bag Moby troll.
It’s too bad for Vance, though. He needs the Gen Z, Mexican-American, and female votes, and he doesn’t have any support among those blocs. The word that Gen Z keeps using for him is “loser,” and you simply can’t become President of the United States of America if the new voting generation almost universally calls you a “loser.”
Keep trying. Maybe Daddy Soros will start paying you to post inanities but not yet.
Poop,
Vice President Vance DOES have “Mexican American” support, Gen Z retards don’t vote and don’t matter and the only women who would oppose him are mindless Karens who always vote D-Bag no matter how contemptible, unqualified, stupid, anti-citizen and evil the D-bag candidate is, so appealing to that minority is a waste of time, too. Married women and mothers love J.D.’s beautiful, Ivy League wife, Usha Vance, and hate ugly lying skanks like Hitlery Clinthog, Heels Up Harris and Fauxcahontas Warren.
The black vote barely matters either but black men overwhelmingly prefer strong men to weak ones and bitches. Black women are a mixed bag but they do like educated, successful and beautiful women. Kamel-Ho Harris is none of those things and all but the dumbest black Karens know by now that she ain’t black.
Does this law mean that anyone 55+ can commit any crime and either (i) be immediately released to avoid the cost of trial due to eminent release (ii) be released by police immediately or (iii) convicted, imprisoned, then released?
Hold Governor New-Scum liable and responsible for any crimes committed by these Criminals throw New-Scum in prison for Life and even Longer and this Scum sucker wants to disarm us and rewrite the 2nd Amendment
Unless California votes in a reputable Republican, nothing will change in California. I watched as leftists slowly and effectively used the influx of illegals, initially from Mexico, to become a state-dependent voting block that received benefits that not even legitimate residents could get when they were in difficult circumstances. The ingoing climate crisis, a leftist defined, the-sky-is falling environmental emergency based upon the repeated use of faulty data and erroneous computer models taxing businesses with extreme environmental dictates while avoiding the practical measures needed to properly regulate forest-fire management, electricity generation and water storing practices to name a few. Such preventative measures are not allowed as their obsession with a pristine earth precludes proper management.
Homelessness and Black reparations are additional sources of taxpayer monies being used to politically appease these groups. Businesses are leaving due to ridiculous wage minimums for entry level workers, additional regulations and taxes on multiple-sized businesses along with individual households. The financial malfeasance by the state is like a black hole swallowing up taxpayer financial resources leading to the state being deeply in the red. Billionaire lovers of California’s natural beauty are now pulling up stakes and moving elsewhere to avoid both the wealth and mansion taxes as well as major oil refineries seeking better locations for their products..
There is no voter integrity as the leftists cheat in elections using a multitude of ways to deliberately manipulate and obfuscate their nefarious use of illegals, mail-in ballots, outdated voter rolls and if I am remembering correctly, allowing released felons to vote.
Leftists in the state are compliant with inclusion that horrifically includes releasing sexual rapists and child sexual predators back into society. They do not care about people at all and until that is understood by tax-paying residents, California’s demise will continue.
When a recall of Gavin Newsome was voted upon, they kept him in office and I moved out of the state. Stupid is as stupid does…and California continues doing stupid very, very well!
The extremely reputable, practical and honest Steve Hilton is leading in the fake political polls by large numbers, so that means the numbers are even larger in reality. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, R, is a good man but he isn’t up to the job and Hilton is way ahead. All the D-Bag candidates are detested scum and poll that way. The D-Bag with the highest and fakest approval percentage is Eric Swallowwell, who has absolutely no chance unless the CA D-Bag vote cheat machine can overcome his huge deficit in support and popularity. He’s so hated here in CA that he isn’t even running for reelection to his house seat in Congress. Why not run for Governor? He’ll get to keep all his campaign funds after he gets his traitorous ass kicked.
Things are looking good in CA for the first time since Reagan was Governor. I don’t know if you live here, I think you wrote that you live in Israel, but we actually have a chance this time around. Hilton would be good for all of us, except the moneyed interests in CA who collude with Greasehead Newscum and the vermin in the State Legislature, the tranny lobby, open borders lobby and vote cheat lobby.
They love lies, murder, … and pedophiles.
It’s one of the signs.
We need to defeat the Left.
And soon.
We’re running out of time.
And this creature thinks he’s going to be President? He won’t be able to hide this.
cold blooded premeditated murderers and rapists have their place in hell and they will not see eternal life. There is no amount of repentance that can save their lives
It YHVH’S LAWS in the OLD Testament.
Doesn’t matter if you believe in GOD or not. HIS LAWS are set and just.
Yes, and saying sorry isn’t the same as real repentance. And that crap by the D-Bags about those demons reforming? Insanity can’t be reformed ever and evil seldom is. None of those demons regret their crimes any more than their D-Bag protectors do.
This convict child rapist smiles in his orange prison scrubs! What’s the matter with people that they cannot sense and see the demoniacs in these people? Oh they had a terrible homelife as a child.
So what? JD Vance had a terrible childhood too. Hells bells, I had a terrible violent childhood. I never did violence or rob and rape and assault and murder. I had awesome lovers but I did not know how to keep a relationship and love that is a natural and can be brutalized out of a child. And one thing I knew, I am responsible for my own actions.
Life ain’t easy and then you retire and hope you have enough multiple streams of income to finance your retirement.
This is a disgusting and morally reprehensible article. Daniel Greenfield’s whole thesis is that we shouldn’t care about Epstein’s rapes, because hey—worse things happened.
And there you have it: Daniel Greenfield is a fully-committed pedophilia apologist. The man who was since the defender against “groomers” of children, now defends a proven and convicted pedophile.
What point does this article serve other than to claim that Jeffrey Epstein and his class weren’t so bad? If you’re making excuses, maybe you’re the baddy here. I personally don’t struggle with these kinds of moral justifications, because I simply don’t associate with or with or vote for pedophiles. I’m not perfect, but it’s very easy to hold that line
Not sure if you’re a liar or an idiot.
Or just didn’t read the article.
All three would be my guess, as well as evil.
Poop,
the whole “thesis” of the D-Bags is that it doesn’t matter that all the scumbags who used Epstain’s Pederast Island were fellow D-Bags such as Billdo Clinton and Billdo Gates, except for Former Prince Andrew. It doesn’t matter that President Trump never went there but did contact the authorities about D-Bag Pimp Epstain twenty years ago, threw him out of Mar a Lago publicly and has always hated him. The D-Bags don’t care about the hos who sucked D-Bag dicks for money when they were underage and know they aren’t victims. They didn’t suffer harm, they just willingly worked for their whore money. And you D-bags ignored Epstain for decades and don’t care that the Clintons and Obamas protected him for as many years as they could. Now Trump is back in the presidency and you scumbags pretend to care
You’re a fully committed pederast apologist because you don’t care how many D-Bags poked underage prostitutes at D-Bag Island.
The fact that you don’t know the difference between a pederast and pedophile shows where your mind is, Chester.
Over 50 can still be dangerous. Over 60 they start slowing down but some are still dangerous.
That’s for sure. Over 50 isn’t old and there are plenty of deadly guys in their 60s. They can still commit rape, too – and do!
Brad Pitt is 61 and still physically vital, not that he would ever commit rape or murder. Herschel Walker turns 64 next month and he’s a physical marvel. Also not rapist or murder material.
Yeah, I think a lot about at which age good generals start to do downhill. Some are still good even at 70.
…”The only time he did not rape was when he was in prison.”.. That’s probably not true. People don’t stop committing crimes just because they are in prison. Probably raping people in there too….
The sicko probably raped a grapefruit – and then ate it!
So if a 50 yo prv rapes a child, gets caught, and gets convicted in CA, is he immediately eligible for parole?
If I ever find out the name of the person that molested my child I will hunt him down and put a bullett in him.
In every way, parents must be ever vigilant to protect, guide and educate their children because society is collapsing. There is a perverse pattern of turning the other cheek to evil. Continuing to vote into office political purveyors of this evil defies comprehension.
Being an “elder” is relevant only if it means that the individual is too frail to reoffend.
Why weren’t all of the monsters mentioned in this article executed?
What does someone have to do to be sentenced to death? And have the sentence swiftly carried out?
Maybe he’s laying groundwork for an application for sanctuary in Dhimmi Britain.
