In the US today “the average homicide suspect has been arrested 11 times prior to them committing a homicide.” (quoted from a video on Twitter, 3/6/23), “DC Police Chief Says Average Homicide Suspect Has Eleven Prior Arrests Before Committing a Murder”, Willl Potter, The Deily Mail, 3/8/3023. “Robert Cotee revealed that the average homicide suspect has a shocking eleven prior arrests before they commit a murder. Cotee’s comments came amid a spate of violent offenses being perpetrated across the US in recent months by criminals with lengthy rap sheets.”

And we now live in a nation in which over half of all murders are “unsolved,” i.e., most of those who commit murders aren’t arrested and indicted. And of those arrested and indicted, what percentage are prosecuted? And of those prosecuted, what percentage are convicted at trial or under a plea=bargain and sentenced to prison?

And Abigail, a first-offender convicted of a nonviolent and victimless and malum prohibitum felony, an intelligent and educated women who has never committed a violent or other serious crime in her life and never will and is not a “threat to society” or to anyone nor even a danger to re-offend by having sex with another young man under statutory age, was sentenced to 8-25 years in prison and a lifetime of quasi-totalitarian surveillance and persecution. And her sentence was twice upheld by the judge who initially had no discretion bot to impose this hideously draconian/Orwellian sentence.
