While I haven’t seen any statistics on this, I’ll bet that most of the people arrested during the protests, riots, lootings, arson, and destruction of public property in the past couple months were freed without charge or fine, much less jail time. Why should they complain if cops also get off on brutality charges when they are also brutal and get off? I think essentially arrests of protestors are made just to get people off the streets for a few hours and perhaps dampen their spirits a little—or maybe give them something to brag about in thirty years when they run for public office.

How did TJ Wiggins get his gun? Presume it was not legal?

I think our legal system is a little corrupt or they’re afraid of something if they do lock this person up. Seems just like what’s going on now with the protesting, they’re afraid it’ll come back on them if they make crime to tough! So it’s better to release someone than face the consequences on them. So your guess is as good as mine why they keep releasing this guy.

I generally disapprove of the death penalty for a number of reasons. But there are some people and some crimes so heinous that they deserve it. If what the sheriff said about this perp are true, the death penalty is warranted without a doubt. He is a menace to society and if in prison for life, would be a menace to the prison population and staff.

The same way people get illegal drugs, through criminal organizations that supply the tools of the trade for the criminal element.

No but he is a convicted felon, albeit a "pardoned" one.

One doesn't....
Quote:
1)Has the person been found unable to understand his own motives for the felonies? 2)Has the person been proven to be a mental defective? 3)Has it been the same judge who took him on in court every time? 4)How can we know, without being fully involved in this case, that it is due to MISPLACED COMPASSION that is the reason for his escaping the court's retribution on him? +++ Let's consider JUMPING ASTRONOMICALLY HIGH to conclusions that are, logically, unwarranted. Let's talk about what kind of citizens we are to give SUMMARY JUDGEMENT on anybody--in a public forum, no less, that we don't even know, who seems to have been involved in far too many breakings of the law. IMHO, jumping to conclusions is yet ANOTHER way of gossipping. |

Ummmm
Why is it LIKELY (meaning more that way than not), that there are thousands more like him?

Strikes
Quote:
If we want to get anybody on 3 strikes, we are assuming two things: 1) We are much better than the convicted person....something like a perfect human being which, I'm sure, we have never, ever known. and 2) I find it unfortunate that we have to beat up number 3 with so much overuse. Seems to me like an easy number that humans appear to live comfortably with. Rushing to judgement? Well? |

Someone had to tell the police what happened. It sounded like the young brother was the informant, the main character wouldn't talk and his girl friend was acting badly towards the police so it had to be him as no one else was there to see what happened. The police knew in detail what had happened, so the young brother had to turn states witness.

When and only when the punishment fits the crime will we get folk like this off the streets....... Some say the death penalty is cruel. Think of the victims before you make that call. Nothing is more cruel than that.

Back in the late 70's I worked as a Military Police desk sergeant at Ft. Hood, TX. One of the MP's made an apprehension of an individual for committing armed robbery on the installation. A few days later I talked with the criminal investigator handing the case, he said they had identified him as the suspect in 7 other armed robberies and were still in the process of calling in victims from other cases to see if he was responsible for their robbery. 320 arrests are only the ones he was caught doing something illegal.
