There's very little you can do, and you'll get a mixed view from police officers about this. I know many inmates, and a lot of these fellows go to jail, and they're going to try to turn themselves around. If you remove any hope at all of perhaps some good time when you're in jail, it's a problem. But I'll tell you it's staggering to see someone with a five-year sentence be out in six to eight months. That's a little unusual. It happens.
