our justice system under liberal leadership.

[Army Guy]

The article takes a glance at our current justice system and how many times Canadian criminals have serious contact with our police and justice system...I find these numbers a bit on the side of crazy town....But liberals will continue to say our justice system is working just fine....Well the numbers do not lie...

OK, Canada. If you don’t like three-strikes-and-you’re-out, how about 26?

A Statistics Canada study by StatCan analyst Laura Savage that was released in early December provides some jaw-dropping numbers on nine-year “re-contact” rates by Canadians who had contact with the police in the calendar year 2014. A contact isn’t just waving at the town cop as he or she drives by on patrol or being in a doughnut shop at cop coffee time. It’s “an official intervention with police as an accused person in relation to a criminal incident,” which in turn is defined as “a violent, property or other Criminal Code … offence,” not including drug and traffic offences.

Re-contacts are defined to the same level of seriousness. The study tracks them for nine years following 2014, focusing on rural Canada though also reporting lots of data for our cities, too.

Over the next nine years, 60 per cent of these people (261,142) had re-contact with the police. Among these 60 per cent, however, only a quarter had just one re-contact. Thirty-five per cent had “between two and five re-contacts, 16 per cent had between six and 10 re-contacts, and 26 per cent had more than 10 re-contacts.”

If you’ve ever had to supervise employees, you know that 20 per cent of your people give you 80 per cent of your problems. It seems crime is the same. As the study reports: “The 66,649 individuals who had more than 10 re-contacts were responsible for 1,702,989 contacts with police during the reference period, translating to an average of 26 contacts per accused person.”

William Watson: Think three-strikes-and-you’re-out is unfair? How about 26?

Sadly, most people on the left don't have an issue with the current system. 26 contacts per offender and still little to no chance of serious jail time.

Pathetic.

Quite aside from the damage and harm these defective people commit, we spend a fortune on repeatedly arresting and processing them through the system when it's clear there is no place for them in our society. The fact that most of them were born elsewhere just makes it that much more insane. Anyone who comes here from somewhere else who commits crimes should be deported. If they have gotten citizenship, it should be removed, and then they should be booted out. For those we can't get rid of, we should open some kind of prison farm in the middle of nowhere. They can do manual labour for the rest of their lives. Or maybe we can just ship them somewhere in the Middle East to be slaves or something.

It is not just Canada, it is America too. 

You start looking at the criminal history of these people and you can see a lifetime of repeat offenses, often escalating until they finally get caught for something really bad like Murder. 

The entire concept of jail being a place to reform people, to get them back out on parole, etc... has failed miserably. 

It doesn't help that we have also gotten rid of mental institutions where we involuntarily commit people, and instead let them roam the streets now. Not sure if you do that up in Canada too or not, but some of the recent stabbings and burtual murders and attacks that went viral here in America are from crazy people that the system just lets go back out on the streets over and over again. They attack people, harm them, then are just right back out on the streets. 

Hell, the big wake up moment for me was watching an episode of COPS 20 years ago now, and they were chasing down someone who stole a car. This guy crashed the car and endandgered lives and when the police caught him, turned out it was some kid, who had been caught 5 times before this for doing the same thing. The Police were like, well, guess we will see him back out on the streets doing this again soon...

I knew a home burglarly detective, retired, spent almost 30 years of his life as an Officer, most of it as a detective investigating property crime... all he did was paperwork, out of 700 home break ins a year, they had a team of 3 detectives, you do the math. They showed up, filled out paperwork, and then on to the next house. Unless someone left a bloody handprint behind, they never caught anyone. 

The few times they did catch someone, because it was just a home break in property crime, they were back on the streets in less than a year. At most it was a 1-2 year sentence and usually out on parole for good behavior after 6 months. Then they are back to stealing again. 

Say what you will about Sheriff Joe Arapio he wrote a great book on this, that prison was just a moment in time for career criminals. It was a small stop where they got free food, exercise, cable TV, health care, and then they were off to the next criminal activity when they got out. Which is exactly why he wanted to make jail miserable.
