When you're a drug addict, the idea is to not throw the book at you. You understand that much. Why would you want a person with addiction issues to be sent to a place where there is nothing but drug dealers and other addicts?
I know people who have had troubled pasts, got 5 felonies for pawning items that were not theirs. In the end, the court game them the option of treatment and upon completion the chrages would be reduced to misdemeanor of some kind and a big fine.
Should they have just thrown her into prison for a decade or let her continue as a contributing member of society? High functioning drug addict that works, pays rent, etc. Spent 3 or 4 months in jail awaiting trial, too.
What should the judge do? Reduce them to cinder?
We're well past "dont break the law".
