"The record was held by Edward Rooks, who died in 2004, with 652 arrests."

Did he die in jail?

"Your average Nebraskan thinks after a prisoner has committed a certain number of crimes (he) will be put away for a long period of time. That doesn't happen," Casady said.

Maybe Nebraskans ought to replace their Judges.

Dems would love to get him on the voter roll the same number of times he's been arrested. And probably have!

They need a "three strike" law.

I wonder what the tally would be if you added up all the money it took to arrest him every time.

the police salaries, the judge salaries, the court costs, the gas in the police cars, the meals in jail...every penny.

Our tax dollars hard at work. 226 arrests. I predict he will be told not to do it again and be released and have #227 by Saturday.

I would be pretty sure it's far cheaper to pay for putting him on trial, no plea bargain, and put him away for the max, than the cost of repeated arrests and all the crime he does on the outside

Holder's list of arrests doesn't come close to setting a record for Lincoln-Lancaster County. He's No. 40, police spokeswoman Katherine Finnell said Tuesday.

A number of people have more than 500 arrests in the city of 226,000 people. The record was held by Edward Rooks, who died in 2004, with 652 arrests.

Well, at least Holder now has a goal to shoot for.

Paperwork is what gov't parasites feed on, and on, and on.
No Kevin Holder; no gov't paychecks. How obscene is that?

Rule Number ONE: If it is FEDERAL TAXPAYER DOLLARS, it's fair game...Just look at this guy's bio, somebody here had a vested interest. Why does this kid warrant a front page bio? Ummmm, 'cuz he fits the profile?

He has spent about 2/3 of one year just being arrested and booked. Imagine how many days he has spent incarcerated, awaiting trial and serving sentences.
