Since this thread is about how messed up our society is when dealing with criminal elements, below is another example of it (published in a Detroit newspaper little while back):
---------
"A federal appeals panel today threw out the 2001 first-degree murder conviction of a Detroit man who gunned down a liquor store customer because the man accidentally bumped into him.
The U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals said Reginald Walker, 57, of Detroit was the victim of bad lawyering. It said his lawyer failed to pursue an insanity defense in the April 2000 slaying of Larry Troup despite Walker’s lengthy history of mental problems.
“There is an overwhelming probability that knowledge of Walker’s history of severe mental illness would have shed a different light for the jury on witness testimony regarding the facts of the crime,” the panel said in a 2-1 decision signed by Appeals Judges Damon Keith"
-----
Judge Damon Keith would allow Mr. Walker, a person who the judge admits has a "history of severe mental illness", to walk the streets again. This is a guy who KILLED SOMEONE BECAUSE THEY BUMPED INTO HIM IN LINE! So there is a possibility he'll be in line again soon at a liquor store near you. Take a good look at his picture on Michigan's Corrections Database OTIS, so you'll be sure not to accidentally bump into him.
I don't care whether he has a mental illness or not, the guy should not be walking around in society. Period.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
