Whatever happened to that 3 strikes and you're out law. Was that only committing a crime with a weapon?
ReplyDeleteI am not sure about that Law but I think every State is different. Will do some checking on it. This is a guy who has committed multiple crimes and is an habitual offender. He needs to stay in jail.
ReplyDeleteHow did Commissioner Jennings vote on the gang Task Force? She is a big advocate for freedoom of movement, and Very vocal about her opposition to the Sheriff! Glad the guy was caught! Too bad the crime is spreading!
ReplyDeleteThis creep lives in LW at 605 S PINE ST #8. This is right off of 6th Avenue South east of the RR tracks at I-95.
ReplyDeleteI agree with above poster. This guy has a death wish and law enforcement should provide it.
