Wonder if Mike Farrell and his friends would have Tookie over for dinner at their fancy houses or allow him to read bedtime stories to their children alone...NOT!
Hey Hollywood: if you wouldn't welcome this guy into your own house, why on earth would you plead to let him back out on the streets?""
That has been my point for years.
My solution:
ANY lawyer who wants to plea bargain and get a perp released, the LAWYER has to take the PERP into his house, supply food, board, and have this perp inside the family with the lawyer and his family.
If the perp follows his criminal traits and screws up. LAWYER loses his license for life. Perp goes back to jail.
Judges who let perps off easy: They get one warning after the first perp screws up, then the second one who messes up the good thoughts of the judge, the judge gets booted off the bench for life, and he cannot work as lawyer, either.
With those rules in place, I wonder just how many perps will get pleaded down or turned out on OR?
