Supposed to be 3 years in prison but got out in 11 months. After plea bargain lowered it and they didn’t put him in for “several” earlier crimes.

The alleged “system of justice” once again fails. I have been harping on that theme for a while and thought I might have overdone it. I was wrong.

If we are not going to “take the law into our own hands” as law enforcement and the judicial system’s wimpy cliche has it, then they had better stop letting felons go free or not keeping them in the first time (no bail or low bail).

AOC and others say we have too many black people in prison and we should release them (and let them vote again). I say stop committing so many crimes. Asians, Native Americans, Latinos and Whites are far down the list of criminal records on the Official Dept. of Justice website.

The alleged killer had a recidivist record, with multiple felony charges pending against him.

A repeat offender, Kelly was charged with attempted first-degree murder but had it downgraded to aggravated assault in a plea bargain in April 2021, Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland said during a press briefing. He was sentenced to three years in prison but was released eleven months later, Strickland said.——National Review article.

Time leads to fear. As we saw with Covid, fear leads to control. This is a win for them to ignore this.

“take the law into our own hands”

That' phrase is wrong (as you note). We're taking the law BACK into our own hands. We're taking the law BACK from our worthless servants in government, to whom we delegated the law, and who refuse to use it properly.

Remember: from dog-catcher to President, government employees are SERVANTS, not masters.

About time to include the ‘Defense “ lawyers in their part of the debacle.

They keep arguing these monsters are “just misunderstood”.

MAKE those lawyers house the perps under their roof-—with their family. Food/shelter/entertainment, etc.

Let’s see how long they will continue to DEFEND such monsters.
