Four months later, he killed a man.<\/p>\n<p>Lemus confessed to second-degree murder for the shooting of Darlin Ariel Diaz Flores, Fairfax County police announced on Wednesday. Fairfax County commonwealth\u2019s attorney Steve Descano (D.) released Lemus without bail in April on gun and drug charges. In May, Descano released Lemus again after he was charged for drug possession and having violated his pretrial release. Lemus killed Flores four months later.<\/p>\n<p>The case is the latest instance in which progressive bail reform has allowed repeat offenders to commit murder. Descano\u2019s office has released or dropped charges on four offenders this year who have gone on to kill. In June, Descano released a violent repeat offender on probation who later <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/democrats\/soros-prosecutor-freed-violent-offender-now-charged-with-killing-homeless-woman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">beat an elderly homeless woman to death<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The left-wing billionaire George Soros donated over half-a-million dollars to Descano&#8217;s campaign as part of a nationwide push to elect progressive prosecutors.
