Repeat offenders

Most people believe in offering a second chance but not a third, forth and so on. The Chicago Tribune reports that 1,400 individuals commit 85% of the crime. Police around the country complain that people they arrest are back on the street. It is not unusual to see situations where a person charged with a crime has a long record going back years. Many cities have no bail policies where offenders are back on the street the day they are arrested and all too often these are the repeat offenders.
