A California man who racked up almost three-dozen charges and 10 arrests in the past month was most recently busted for allegedly driving a stolen car to the police station to pick up his personal property, cops say.

Local law enforcement is "very familiar" with Keith Chastain, Clovis police said in a statement.

The 38-year-old was booked into the Fresno County Jail 10 times between Feb. 19 and Tuesday, the department said. Six of those arrests happened in Clovis, just northeast of the City of Fresno.

The most recent came as officers intercepted a stolen vehicle and found him in the driver's seat, according to police.

Officers located the stolen truck and "initiated a high-risk traffic stop" right outside the Clovis Police Department building around 9:30 a.m. PT Thursday.

"He was the only person in the stolen truck and was actually on his way to pick up his personal property from our department when he was arrested," police said.

Between mid-February and this week, police say he racked up 18 felony charges and 15 misdemeanors. The cases involve six stolen cars, DUI, drugs, vandalism and fraud.

A rational society would have permanently rid itself of this person already.

He was arrested.

And then, the police offices applauded and shook the crook’s hand and let him out to continue his crime spree, after they washed and detailed the truck for him.

It’s L.A., so, why even bother arresting him?

I would not be shocked to learn that he is originally from Florida.

Mid-February to March 23
* 10 arrests
* 18 felony charges
* 15 misdemeanors
* six stolen cars, DUI, drugs, vandalism and fraud

Is our judicial system great or what?

I pity the poor cops doing their jobs and arresting this sleaze-bag ten times and watching the damn judges send him right out through the revolving door.

Is there a Soros DA in Clovis?

“It’s L.A.”

No, it’s Clovis, quite a long ways from LA.

The cops didn’t put him through the revolving door. The DA did. Big difference. The cops doing the ten collars are no doubt as sick about this as we are.

No wonder cities cannot hire new police recruits. Who wants a career where you are stymied at every turn?

Imagine this creeps street cred should he ever actually end up behind bars. He will get all the favors in the world by teaching this insanity, and at the same time fundraising for Soros type D.A.s in as many places as possible. Teach how to research and find D.A.s who also treat criminals to not just a revolving door, not a get out of jail free card, a no-jail-whatsoever card.

Not that the Republicans are capable of fighting at even 10% of Democrat levels, but if they were, I’d tell them that this guy is the PERFECT POSTER BOY for an advertising campaign aimed at Democrats, given his revolving door treatment and his lily-white skin.

They could CRUSH the Democrats just by listing what he was able to do in ONE MONTH.

...but they won’t, they never do.

Willie Horton was the last time Republicans went bare knuckles. It was a different era.

In Mayberry he could have checked himself into the jail cell like Otis and enjoyed a chicken dinner with mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet corn with butter, hot biscuits and apple pie and fresh squeezed lemonade, delivered by Aunt Bee in a red checkered cloth covered wicker basket.
