thleen McLaughlin says her 'clients' are spending less time in jail. She is right. They are spending less time in jail because APD won't bother arresting them, the judicial system won't bother charging them, and our duly-elected 'representatives' gave us all an albatross around our collective necks by issuing 'Get-out-of-Jail FREE' cards to repeat offenders who do NO TIME for *anything* short of MURDER. And had the so-called 'Justice System' been doing what NEEDED to be done, Gregory Gill would still be alive, instead of the junkie that killed him.

The crime wave started before SB91, that I will concede. SB91, however, released the brakes on a locomotive starting down the hill. The shoplifters, thieves, burglars, car thieves, heroin junkies, and methheads have more rights that the law-abiding citizens, and they steal all day with impunity while APD does -

Nothing.

McLaughlin asks, "increased incarceration, do we really want that?"

If it will stop this mess, YES.

Yes - I - Do.
