Every time I see things like this, I can not help but wonder that in the case of the victim in these cases, where the out cry of cruel and unusual punishment for them was?
It is absolutely obscene to see what these Criminals are doing to the Court System, by playing Jail House Lawyer.
Our Criminal Justice System is both a farce and injustice, abused by both the Courts, and the criminals, the judges are letting convicted rapist off with a slap on the wrist, Child Molesters are put on probation which they fail to do or find a way around it, people that are guilty of and have been convicted of murder are serving less time than a petty shoplifter.
The bottom line is pretty simple if you can find, or afford the right lawyer you are pretty sure they will if at all possible shop for the best, most sympathetic judge for your case and in most of those cases the criminal will serve none to little time.
I am not very tolerant of these situations, and to be perfectly honest with you I think that if a Police Officer and his partner witness a criminal kill a person they should be allowed to kill them on the spot, done deal! I can already hear the out cry to my statement, of how wrong that would be to deny the criminal his day in court but how about the person that criminal just killed where is their chance to be represented by a higher authority to repeal their death at the hands of the criminal, to the best of my knowledge if you are killed there is no do over available as a second chance!
