(1,451 posts)It is how it starts. Its how the deck gets stacked. always look at their websites and see who is endorsing. republican cohorts put money and brag on their judges. they usually work with people in some way in the For-Profit-Prison systems. Gov. Jan Brewer signed that ridiculous law just for her buddies to get paid off our tax dollars. Christie did it for his buddy in the halfway home business. Judges do it to Juveniles to help keep detention centers at capacity. Too many horror stories. Its one of the reasons these 3 strike laws are in effect in a lot of States. America has one of the highest prison populations in the World. Because its a business. They don't build new jails unless they expect occupancy. takes a judge to make that process happen.
