[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need 20-30 year mandatory minimum sentences for any car theft. Period. [/quote] The Supreme Court would disagree with you! Moreover, that is cruel & unusual punishment. We need more social services and campaign push for helping fathers parent. Many of the kids stealing probably don't have fathers in the home because the fathers are away in jail. More jail will not resolve the issue. [/quote] Their fathers are not at home, but few are in jail, at least in DC. And more jail time would absolutely solve this. A high percentage of crime in DC is committed by people with pending cases or recent cases. They don't care. You would think that people who are facing current charges would be on their best behavior to get a good plea deal or a lenient sentence -- for many it's the opposite. DC needs some version of a three strikes law. And 24-26 year olds are not children--they are men and the YRA needs to be repealed.[/quote]
