Review of fox chicago news::Hee Haw Honeys?
What a number! 250 arrests for one Chicago man. Some may see this as a shame, but apparently the man is going for a record to be number 1 in the Guinness Book of World Records. The only thing is, however, the Guinness Book of World Records only records feats in the measure of fastest, longest, largest or smallest, but not most apparently. Perhaps this Chicago criminal will therefore set two records. One being his own tally of arrests, while the other being the implementation of another measure of recording. Of course, this wasn't the initial goal, but as the numbers have grown, why look back? Reports from sources like ThinkTaylor of therandomforest.com and the MyFoxnewsstation stated that a Chicago man was arrested for trespassing at O'Hare Airport in Chicago while apparently trying to solicit services for money. Upon his court date, everyone was surprised to see so many arrests under the man's belt. The bigger question, however, is how has this number been achieved? Perhaps it's not so much the man's fault as it is the judicial system. Even though the batch of charges against the man have been minor offenses, a collected amount would almost guarantee anyone some substantial jail time. Particularly if the criminal is a repeat offender of the same crime. Trespassing in an airport! I guess not for this man. It seems that he has been able to slip through the cracks of the judicial system at least 250 times. The Chicago crook is 53 years old, so he has had a significant amount of time to build his portfolio of arrests, but again, who lets a person go through 250 arrests without major consequences? Surely it has proved to be a joke for the man, as he continues his reign of terror on society, with the knowledge that there will be minimal penalty. Every state has some form of judicial practice for repeat offenders and it typically involves substantial jail time. This is to deter the criminal from continuing his spree of criminal acts and also keeps him off of the streets and decreases the crime rate. At least in society! In many states there is the 3-strike rule. This is a law that mainly affects criminals who are arrested for felony crimes. So, in the case of the 53-year-old man who commits mostly misdemeanors, the three strike rule may not apply. However, there are laws for repeat offenders of any particular crime, that may not necessarily mandate a life sentence, which is what the three-strike rule incorporates, but a judge who sees a history of crime of the same or similar offense will typically sentence a criminal accordingly. There is nothing accordingly done about 250 arrests, which is what the baffling part is, as many people would say that there should be no reason or possibility for a person to be able to commit that many crimes. It is for reasons like this that the judicial system cracks down on criminals who seem not to care about anything. In the case of this man with 250 arrests, the motivation here seems to be monetary. Apparently a normal job doesn't suffice and, with so many offenses, who will actually hire him? It's a catch-22 in this case, and therefore almost a guarantee that the criminal will return to what he knows best: illegal activity! The scary thing is that there is a potential for crimes of much more aggression and violence by this man; if the judicial system perhaps had jailed him early on and even offered something like a work release program, there would be little to no chance for the motivation for this man to return to a life of crime. Will the 250-arrests man make it? Will he reach his goal as the first in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most arrests? The ironic thing is, the name of this man is Elijah Goodlett, but there is certainly nothing Good about him in this case. Go Figure!
