Nightside with Dan Rea - Rundown for March 31, 2020

Essex County DA Weighs in on Prisoner Release. DA John Blodgett joins Dan to discuss the ramifications of the potential release of thousands of prisoners (including murderers) from Massachusetts jails because of the Coronavirus pandemic. What do you think of the idea?

Cape Cod Bridges: Should They Stay Open or be Closed for the Duration? An on-line petition charging that the Cape Cod bridges be closed had nearly 5,000 signatures as of yesterday. Petitioners want to limit traffic across the Sagamore and Bourne bridges to year-round residents, medical personnel and trucks that deliver essential supplies. The petition states "while we love our tourists and summer residents this is not the time to come to the cape, our hospital can’t handle it." Is this a good idea?

Andrew Cuomo for President? Gov. Andrew Cuomo denied to his TV host brother last night that he was or would ever consider running for president. Cuomo's current approval rating is near 90 percent as he leads the state’s response to the pandemic. President Trump says he would not mind running against Andrew. Do you think Cuomo will change his mind? Will Biden try to draft him as Vice-President despite having promised to pick a woman?
