Do you need a 100 percent guarantee that this will solve every crime before you’re willing to consider it?
I truly hope that no son, daughter or grandchild of yours is ever victimized by somebody who has had multiple arrests but the backed-up court system has yet to put them behind bars or they repeatedly plea to a lesser charge.
I can tell you from personal experience, it really hurts when that happens. You feel very let down by our criminal justice system.
