November 16, 200718 yr Author If the overcrowding exists than don't give her the punishment to spend a day in jail and then let her go after 84 minutes and make a mockery of the justice system. What I really would be for, stocks like they did in the city square 100 years ago. Give her a day in a set of those. Better yet, make her star in a Michael Moore movie. NOW THAT is a serious punishment.
November 16, 200718 yr And that's where you're wrong. It's everyone's problem. So you wouldn't mind paying more in taxes to build that prison? A prison or jail in Louisville Metro to hold every person for the full term of there sentence would fill U of L and cost billions, you gonna help pay for it? So exactly how would I fix this problem?
November 16, 200718 yr Author So exactly how would I fix this problem? Large auditorum and make them watch reruns of all the presidential debates and televised speeches.:lol:

November 16, 200718 yr If the overcrowding exists than don't give her the punishment to spend a day in jail and then let her go after 84 minutes and make a mockery of the justice system. See now you're getting back to the problem we face here every day. What do you do? We have had to cut programs b/c we have no money. We have had to close down units of our jails b/c of no money, the main county jail is so overcrowded we leased cells in Butler county to hold them and we just had to get out of that lease b/c we can't pay it any more. This is all part of a MUCH larger problem. The bottom line is she didn't get any preferential treatment, this kind of thing happens, and I'm serious, thousands of times every day across the country. What do you do? That should be such an easy question, but there is no easy answer.
November 16, 200718 yr Author Nice one LBBC :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: ACLU would never allow it. Cruel and inhumane punishment.

What do you do? That should be such an easy question, but there is no easy answer. My problem with it is, if you know it is a problem (and I know we are talking two different parties here) and that she is going to get out in 84 minutes, don't make her go at all. Serving 84 minutes just makes a mockery of the whole system. And I deal with the ones BEFORE they get to you. And their view? There are NO CONSEQUENCES to their actions because they NEVER get sent off regardless of how many times the judge threatens to send them off.

November 16, 200718 yr Are you really taking that approach? Do you vote? I am not allowed to vote ever since I went into the witness protection program...:lol::lol::lol: Since your cage is rattled by this thread I will be serious for a minute. I have a problem with people getting special treatment in these type cases. One of the reasons that you see the same stars in trouble on a regular basis. If this was me you can bet that I would not be out in 84 minutes....I'd still be sitting there until sometime Monday I bet. She learns nothing from this and will contine to screw up.....wasting MORE of our tax dollars. I get and agree with you about overcrowding of jails. What is the best way to solve the problem...I don't know. What I do know is when I get in trouble for something, I go to great links to not make the same mistake twice.
November 16, 200718 yr If everyone that was sentenced to prison or jail in this country served there full term, we'd have to use entire cities to house them. Prison overcrowding is not just an excuse, most jails and prisons, especially in California are running at about 200% occupancy. They are unsafe already with how many extra people they have stuffed in them. If all criminals were actually held to their sentence and made to serve the actual penalty, there wouldn't be an overcrowding problem. Criminals would think about the penalty before thumbing their nose at justice.
November 16, 200718 yr If all criminals were actually held to their sentence and made to serve the actual penalty, there wouldn't be an overcrowding problem. Criminals would think about the penalty before thumbing their nose at justice. Did the death penalty stop murder? I'm sorry but that argument is ridiculous.

I see this stuff every day, I'm not just making it up. Normal Joe Schmoe gets the same deals. It happens, it has to in todays prison and jail culture.
