Hi, this is conservative candor and I'm Dr. Carl Mumpower...
One of the more destructive forces in our culture receives very little scrutiny and even less accountability. Our judicial system, like much of society's foundation, has become morally corrupt. In one representative state, North Carolina, repetitive delays are the routine for a system that is about as technically efficient as a plumber's cigar box. Most districts plea bargain 95 plus percent of their cases - a figure having more in common with spring cleaning than justice. There are reasons beyond self-service that lawbreakers hold our court system in almost universal contempt - these professionals recognize criminal enterprise when they see it. Those who violate the law do not all need to go to jail, but they do need timely and reasoned consequence. Multiple delays, purchased deals, and absence of jail space and alternative sentencing assure that most courthouse visitors come away feeling mugged versus adjudicated. Solutions will not come from the primary beneficiaries of these inefficiencies. When the chauffeurs are making $250 plus an hour, it's clear why the wheels of justice turn slowly.
I'm Dr. Carl Mumpower and you just spent a minute with a candid conservative...
