A driver high on meth and heroin jailed for killing two rescue workers in a head-on DUI crash won’t get out early under California’s controversial Elderly Parole Program — after outrage that he was set to walk free for serving less than half his sentence. Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday rejected a parole board’s decision to grant parole to Joseph Tidwell, now 57, bringing welcome relief to the families of Scott Johnston, 29, and Phil Calvert, 58, who were killed in the 2004 crash.
