A couple of these names are recent repeat offenders ... similar crimes, similar crimes, different locations - and there is one I have first hand knowledge of having done State time for similar repeat offenses in the past. Why are these folks still out committing these crimes? Incarceration may not be the answer, but there has to be something out there that will work.
