Another Mental Health Diversion Failure: Repeat Bank Robber Arrested… Again 

October 30, 2025 – Sacramento County Sheriff's Office officials report that on October 15th, 2025, Sacramento Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a robbery at the Sacramento Credit Union. The suspect walked in, handed the teller a note demanding cash, and walked out with $2,460.

That suspect, 44-year-old Darren Campoy, was arrested on Wednesday by Sheriff’s Robbery Detectives outside of his home in Roseville.

Here’s the part that should make all of us furious: Campoy was already on Post-Release Community Supervision (PRCS) out of Placer County for a 2021 bank robbery. He was then somehow granted mental-health diversion earlier this year, meaning his criminal proceedings were erased, so he could get “treatment” instead of jail.

Campoy has a long criminal history including armed robbery, reckless driving, evading police and psychologists even described him as a “higher risk to public safety.” Yet, somehow, he was released anyway.

Less than a year later, he’s back to robbing banks. That’s a result of terrible laws. And it’s exactly what happens when accountability gets replaced with excuses.

The idea behind diversion laws was to help those who commit low-level crimes because of treatable mental illness. But what we have now are career criminals using “mental health” as a shield to avoid consequences - and this is the result.
