How do you serve 7 years for crimes of that magnitude that exhibit such a lack of respect for others and suitability for society. Everytime I read a story like this, it makes me want to crusade for the elimination of locking up people in victimless drug cases. Drug inmates account for 60% of the prison population and it is due to overcrowding that we are not able to sufficiently punish very dangerous people and protect society from them. I know of cases of people who are convicted of killing people and serve less than 10 years. This guy should not be back on the streets where the people in his life are forced to deal with him along with whatever baggage he picked up in prison.
I agree with you. IMO, I think we ought to pack the sheriff in Arizona in charge of all prisons nationwide. If prison were more difficult, these guys would be less apt to be repeat offenders. Arizona crime rate has lowered since Arpaio (sp?) became the head sheriff.

I couldn't believe some of the things he was doing. I liked it, but from what I read, the people in his jurisdiction are pretty fed up with him now. It appears that he may be a bit of a cowboy across the board. I like the tent city and some of his other things.

When I read that, this is what comes to my mind:
The man was criminal minded, clearly. These days women need to take a good look at who they're bringing into their lives, especially who they're bringing into their kids' lives. Right now it seems likely that a hoodlum she brought into her life has killed her child, her mother, and her brother.
If the women themselves don't do a background check on the guy, in some cases it might behoove the parents to do it for them... so at least their daughter will be going in with full knowledge of whom they're dating.

Yeah, I thought that myself but just didn't say anything at the time. I want to be sensitive to the amount of trauma the young lady is going through now, but if things are as they seem, it does seem like she allowed a very dangerous person into her and her family's lives.
Perhaps she will use this as a vehicle to speak out and help other young people from making the same kind of mistake. It happens far too often.

What's more frightening than that is that women will take these bums in as daddies and pseudo-husbands who end up just making them victims as well.
And the women defend their actions with, "Everyone makes mistakes and we all need someone to just give us a chance..." blah, blah, blah...

Re: *Breaking* Jennifer Hudsons Mother found Murde
Looks like they've found the gun involved...
And the cops seem to think more than one person committed the crime. I'm starting to wonder if this killing was drug related.
CHICAGO (CBS) ― Chicago Police have located what they believe was the gun used in all three murders of actress Jennifer Hudson's family on Wednesday afternoon.
Police discovered the weapon in an abandoned West Side lot not far from where the body of Julian King was discovered in a white SUV on Monday. Investigators were seen placing the weapon into a cardboard box and taking it into a waiting vehicle.
Police say it appears that more than one person killed actress Jennifer Hudson's nephew, mother and brother, and damaging information continues to emerge about William Balfour, the man at the center of the investigation into the crimes.
