All four are expected to be arraigned in Brattleboro criminal court with Jackson scheduled to be in court Aug. 12 and Martin and Brooks Sept. 2.

BIG DEAL- This is just a PR thing for the police to say they are making arrests and lead the public to believe they are doing something when in fact they were all let out and ALL will be let off by the judges with a slap on the wrist. Wake up everyone!
ReplyDeleteI just don't understand why Vermont is so scared to incarcerate criminals. Please save me the crap about repeat offending etc etc. Statistics say this. criminals will flock to the spot with least resistance and the least amount of punishment. If the drug community realizes they will be hit with maximum sentences with no leniency then they will move on to the weaker spot on the map. This is common sense.
Right on.....

ReplyDeleteHmmm I wonder why??? Doesn't take a smart person to figure that one out.
