I really hope I`m not being repetitive but it seems that cases like this are more frequent than perhaps a decade ago. Even if that is not the case the process of dealing with them has failed, is failing and will continue to fail until old ideas are swept away. As with 70% of such offending alcohol and/or drugs are responsible for the recidivism. Only by treating that underlying cause in a new and radical fashion will there be a possibility of rehabilitating such people. The current so called choices for sentencers and probation service are next to useless. I have argued here for many years that that new form of institution required to carry out treatments for such offenders must have them under lock and key and subject to compulsory detox procedures. Write "workhouse " in the search box and take your choice of posts. Dismiss the underlying theme as is your wont but consider how you would address the problem. Add the comments to your reading. Apart from the ill informed ones most of the them indicate a legal failure to deal with the issue. Public lack of confidence in our judicial system which these comments represent is another crack in the justice pillar which is the mainstay of democracy.
