How does this not care for the innocent. If accused, they can usually post bond.What am I supposed to do, slap the policeman on the hand and let the perp walk. The dude has been arrested, that ends the issue until it is adjudicated. My goal was to get people (perps and all) out of the jails and justice system as quickly as possible. Usually what will happen is the perp will appear before the judge and if he pleads innocent, the judge can then hear his story, remembering that it is on the record, and then: 1) Let him go, or 2) Set bail, or 3) Remand Him. I was providing a new option for those who as plead guilty. The Judge can: 1) Sentence him 2) Put him on probation or 3) Give him stripes and send him home. Anything to keep the riff raff out of the jail system. We need not fill the jails with petty punks. BESIDES: When the perp appears before the judge, the officer is frequently not there. In the absence of the officer the case will be put over for a date when the officer can be there. One or two no-shows by the officer and the perp walks anyway. I know, I had done that for a red light violation which was BOGUS and the officer knew it would not stand up. ROAR |
