I don't believe in parole or time off for good behavior. If your given 20 years, you should do twenty years. If you "misbehave" and break the rules, you do 30 days on bread and water in solitary, with the 30 days added to your 20 years.

When I was in the service, if you went to the brig, each day in the brig was added to your enlistment time. I had a guy come into my squad in Viet Nam that already had 3 1/2 years in on a 3 year enlistment, and had 13 months to do in Viet Nam. He was making up his "bad" time.

. "Up to the mid-1960s, we saw few juvenile sex offenders," reports veteran forensic psychologist John Cochran. "Today, there's a flood."

Raising children without fathers, and a sexualized culture do this.

I am sickened by this and outraged. If the prisons are too crowded then build more or impose the death penalty to all rapists, molestors and murderers and it will create vacancies real quick in the prisons we already!
Saving taxpayers lots of money at the same time! When are people going to wake up and smell the coffee of reality.

Maybe the trash compactor from Star Wars is needed to put a squeeze on these lemons.

One more thing. When a kid is molesting other kids there is a very high chance he was molested.

Find that person as well.

I think that's exactly how it should be. Why should someone get rewarded for good behavior in jail? This after they've murdered or raped. It's immoral and wrong.

No, but then I'm not a movie buff. No more than I am a TV watcher.

Our politicians both parties play at getting tough on crime. And we the citizens never seem to hold their feet to the fire over their inactions or 'feel good' laws that are supposed to "fix" the problem.

The inmates run the prisons and the injustice system. Recidivisim rate is 68%

My child's killer will probably be released this Nov, as he has "maxed" out his 20 year plea bargain. We have fought 5 parole hearings. The most we can gain by fighting a 6th is an additional 6 months. Weighing the odds even if we did fight the parole hearing the probability of them refusing to grant him parole are slim with so little time left. They wanted VERY, VERY badly to parole him 2 years ago. Dennis and I have assessed the emotional, physical and financial toll it would take to fight what is in all a high probability a losing battle and have decided we will not oppose his parole. It will buy him a year of parole supervision versus no supervision at all. We do not see it as giving up on keeping Jeremy's killer locked up for as long as possible. The odds are very much against us. We fought and won 5 parole hearings. The very first was 10 months after our Jeremy's killer was sentenced.

It takes a lot of work to fight these hearings, it takes a lot of public involvement, which we get very little of BTW. A simple letter to a parole board goes a long way into keeping these killers in prison.

We can't lock these violent, life-destroying offenders up for too long or we'll run the risk of running out of prison space needed for all the pot smokers and other people convicted of victimless crimes.

I believe your post is one of the most important posts of what has been a year of important posts.

Not only is it an outrage beyond belief that we may have as many as 800,000 murderers out roaming the streets of America (from your website), or that your son's brute thug killer is about to go on parole in Nov, 2002, or that sexual predators continue to be coddles and/or released only to commit more heinous crimes like those we have seen in the past months - BUT THE DEMOCRATIC CRIME ORGANIZATION IS ACTIVELY RECRUITING VOTERS FROM THE FELON POPULATION OF THIS COUNTRY - AND ITS CHIEF FINANCIAL SUPPORTING GROUP - TRIAL LAWYERS - WORK PRIMARILY AGAINST THE INCREASE OF TRUE JUSTICE for violent criminals rather than for it - either as defense lawyers or as liberal judges or as legislators who smirk and smile at murderers and who tolerate one in their own midst!!! and who tolerated a serial rapist as the head of their party!!!

Gail - there are so many "just causes" = but finding a way to somehow take this nation to a place where its justice system actually punishes severely violent criminals - eliminating from this earth those who do what was done to your son - and the same for serial sexual predators (which would, of course, include the former inhabitant of OUR WHITE HOUSE).....has to be top priority.

Thank you for taking the trouble to post this. Everybody should read it and bookmark it, print it out (and the associated articles within) to distribute, and/or email. Such important work. So much is at stake. Innocent lives. A sense of justice. The future of our country if Felons are allowed to vote legally!!!

So do I. Prayer and your good work and perhaps the outrage being caused by the murders of these little girls MAY spur some calls for action - from our JUDGES - that is just a hope. God bless, keep, strengthen, and comfort you - and keep you safe.
