However, the judicial system in this country is not handling these issues in a way that shows we mean business—that no one will ever think of doing this again! We are not even close to that.
Where are the teens who were torturing the disabled man, or the drowning man, or the girl being raped?? Have they all been arrested? Are they in jail? Will there be a speedy trial and just punishment for what they did? Or will this linger for years and we probably won’t hear about it again? Maybe the scope of “cruel and unusual punishment” needs to be examined again; because whatever is being used for punishment now is not working.
