C.D. Wilkinson: The proof’s in the pictures, criminals being released
Re “Car Theft Suspects” (Page B2, Nov. 15): Numbers don’t lie: From Oct. 30 through Nov. 12, a dozen people were arrested for auto theft. Of the 12, seven were on probation for other offenses, possibly a previous auto theft charge. Yet, our correctional system is turning criminals back onto the streets by the hundreds. What’s wrong with this picture?
