Marino warns on prison sentencing policy after bond defeat
State Senator Ralph Marino cautions against reading the bond defeat as public desire to roll back crime policies. He notes voters are torn between funding prisons and distrust of bonding.

Albany considers spending millions to speed trials and expand sentencing alternatives including community service restitution and drug treatment. State Sen Tarky Lombardi discussed health policy at a New York City symposium while Gov Carey signed a bill funding regional EMS councils with up to 5000 each. A new savings banks law eases regulation, allows branch sales, cuts taxes on deposits, enables dividend payments from FDIC or FSLIC loans, and speeds bank openings.
