Addicted to coddling criminals

President Obama released from federal prison or slashed the sentences of 214 inmates last week, the largest one-day springing since at least 1900 — many of them minorities he termed nonviolent drug offenders. But his clemency spree helped criminals who not just used but sold garbage, and more than 50 who brandished firearms while engaging in “nonviolent’’ trafficking.

Independently, the affluenza-afflicted Cameron Douglas, 37year-old scion of Hollywood royalty — son of Michael Douglas, 71; grandson of Kirk Douglas, 99; stepson of Catherine Zeta-Jones, 46 — was released from a federal lockup to a halfway house after serving nearly seven years for drug dealing and possession. He landed a glamorous job at a film-production company in New York City. A source told The Post’s Page Six he plans to write a tell-all book about his “struggle” growing up among icons.

Wealthy druggies have it over ordinary, coddled junkies and pushers. They get bigger breaks.
