Garcia served most of his sentence and was released all of one hundred days early before his flat line date. <br /><br />Bottom line: Garcia would have been on the street to kill these men with or without parole.

He served a year and half longer because of the parole board. He was paroled when his release was imminent. In doing so, he had to have an address that was approved and investigated to go to --- if he had not been paroled he would have been free with no forwarding address. Sounds like good judgment to me.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-13650810316355545742016-12-22T14:47:54.892-06:002016-12-22T14:47:54.892-06:00Steve Pickett is not to blame here.

There are four other members of the Parole Board, and Pickett was not a member during all of the time this guy was incarcerated or could have been. The Legislature had it right for about ten years there when the 85-percent rule was law. However, they couldn't stick with it and changed it back to a looser parole system that exists now. <br /><br />Thus someone is always going to get paroled, and it may be the two- or three-time property crime offenders. And some who get parole are going to end up killing someone. Two and only two solutions exist: either curtail or eliminate parole (i.e. the 85% Rule) or allow it and understand that mistakes will be made, because no one can 100% predict the future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-15431927562068380442016-12-22T12:06:13.404-06:002016-12-22T12:06:13.404-06:00agree with 11:04agree with 11:04Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-52853784690660175322016-12-22T11:04:31.337-06:002016-12-22T11:04:31.337-06:00Habitual offenders should be sentenced to death. ...Habitual offenders should be sentenced to death.

I've carefully studied the decriminalization of marijuana but know that it creates more neglected children, abused spouses, and almost total loss of ambition, not to mention all the substances that create im-paired driving. It is profiling, but anyone with Garcia's record and tattoos is a red flag walking. A crime waiting to happen. We know many of societies misfits are those who escalate into worse crimes. Yet we cannot achieve balance in who will prosper with freedom and who should remain incarcerated.

I don't think that ANY drug crime (selling, possession, using), unless it is coupled with another crime, should count towards habitual offender status. I think it's wrong that anyone should serve life in prison without parole where one of the three convictions was just a drug crime. I also don't think that it's a good use of taxpayer dollars that we should house those people for the rest of their natural lives because of it. If you are the type that makes anyone feel violated (I include car burglaries in this category), the first offense should be very high, including mandatory prison time. Any further offenses should be even steeper, to include life in prison. As someone much smarter than me once said, it's time we start locking up the people we are scared of rather than the people we are mad at.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-87815296132914998162016-12-22T09:48:43.291-06:002016-12-22T09:48:43.291-06:00The city of Jackson (Yarber or another member on t...The city of Jackson (Yarber or another member on the council)wants to hired thugs like this.
