When I turn on the news in the evenings I hear men raping girls and men child molesting kids they only get less then 7 years in prison.

But people who sell drugs like meth, crack, heroin, 10-20+

I think it is bull because the girls/kids will be emotionally scared for the rest of their lives.

I am just wondering because I have a friend who is in trouble for 3 theft charges and one petty theft, that is what the municipal court website says anyway. She says that she wrote 3 bad checks and she is getting charged with theft. But I thought she would get charged with bad checks. What is the differenece? Also these crimes occured back in 2006, this time last year actually, so why on the court docket is everything dated for this year?

There are several repeat offenders, If you Kill someone who is committing serious crimes, they will never commit a crime again, and you have stopped all future crimes commited by the individual.

Of course the death penalty works, isn't it ridiculous to believe otherwise? is it just wishful thinking? Do people just like to believe that killing another human is so wrong that it couldn't possibly be justified? Personally I think some of them need to get out of Disney land and realize that sometimes, people are better off dead.

It's almost impossible not to find a repeat offender, i'm sure a murderer doesn't just kill 1 person and become satisfied and then hold up a regular office job and attend church all day, and never do it again. He'll kill again,He'll rape again, or sell drugs again again. Whether or not the death penality will "Deter" crime, is *possibly* debatably, but it would'nt it be safe to say it Prevents it?

I've already made up my mind, but I have some problems: even though my father has agreed to pay me about one thousand dollars to support me, is my mom required to do so as well? where do I find fitting housing? if I do find a decent one bedroom apartment, is the landlord justified to rent to a minor of sixteen years old?

I routinely work 6 hour shifts without a break, in fact I'm told by management that I don't get a break for working 6 hours. I know in some states this is illegal. Is it illegal for my employers to do this? I live in Illinois if that helps at all.

Thanks!

My father passed away suddenly. He and my Mom live in another state. I have a brother who is two hours from them. As soon as Dad passed, my brother drove to their home and retrieved the will. I have never seen it.My mother, though not physically well and mentally diminished, was named executor of the will, per my brother. She made my brother her power of attorney. They made all the funeral arrangements for my Dad and my brother moved my Mom into a nursing home 20 minutes from his home. I have been left out of loop, not kept informed, not included to help with the funeral, etc. It's been very frustrating and upsetting. I asked to see the will and I was ignored. I made a second request and weeks later, my brother tells me my mother won't let me see the will. I am very perplexed over this situation. Am I entitled to see the will?? I've also emailed 3 attorney's in their state and not one has contact me to help.

it is a fact, the death penalty saves up to 14 innocent people per execution...the independant studies are in...now when people argue they do not want to take the chance of executing an innocent person, ask if they want to take the chance of executing 14 innocents..
these studies were also reported by anti death penality scientists..they admitted they were not happy with the results, but the truth needs to be known!

My ex-boyfriend has been trying to contact me for six months, and I'm wondering if what he is doing can be considered harassment, and what I can do about it.
He says he wants "to talk," but after the emotional abuse he put me through for 2 years, I have been unwilling to take his calls. Six months ago he started calling and text messaging me daily, having his friends call me, and using his friends' cell phones so that I wouldn't recognize the number. One night a few months ago, he called me over 60 times in an attempt to talk to me. He's gotten better now (he only calls every week or so), but he has recently started e-mailing my mom and my friends and asking them questions about where he can find me. So, the question is...is this serious enough to go to the police? Is this considered harassment? Or is it just an "annoyance" that I should put up with? I'm moving on with my life and am not willing to talk to him...so what can I do to keep him from contacting me?

This is a story meant as a joke but I'm not sure if it could turn out real and would like to have your opinion.

A guy buys insurance for a carton of cigarettes to protect them from damage, intentional or otherwise. He then goes on to light them, ie smokes them and tried to claim the insurance, since after smoking them, it is technically "damaged". He successfully claimed the insurance for the item but once the damage was paid out, the insurance company sued him for arson. He was jailed for 2 years.

Is such a scenario possible in the United States?

Well one Thursday after school, me and my friends and other girls were talking and we realized, we had no homework or upcoming tests. My friend and three other girls were going to go home, change clothes, and eat at Buffalo Wild Wings at 6:00 and then head to the mall. I wanted to go, but I had to help tutor until 5:30. Then said they'd come by the school then and we'd all walk there together. So they came and I was the only one still in my school uniform. We ate and got to the mall at 7:15. We were walking around when my friend Libby saw two boys she knew. She was talking to them, but me and the other girls just waited behind her. During this, a cop came up to us. He told me to stand against the wall. I was handcuffed and led around the mall to the security office. I was then placed in an isolated room (with the cuffs still on). After about an hour, the officer said my friends paid a "releasing fee" and since this was a first time offense, nothing would be recorded.
