Hard Time already served

Put the lady on probation and send her home. This is crazy. If she married, had kids and lived each day with this secret on her conscious, she has been punished enough. Isn't the reason for sending folks to jail, to punish them and hope they learn from their mistakes and don't do the crime again? I think this lady has learned her leason and I doubt very much she will repeat her crime. 32 years of her life has been affected already. I doubt it would serve the public or her any good to put her in jail and pay for housing her when our prisons are already overcrowded and we are letting rapists, murderers, and such out early to free up space. Get your head out of your rear and tell me exactly what sending her to jail would accomplish! Nothing, absolutely NOTHING! What a waste of tax payer money....!

Threading in forums

We are working on adding threading to the forums. Clicking on the headline of a post will now get you related posts in a few different ways.

- If the post was sent to us in response to an article, clicking on that post's headline will retrieve all comments on that article, and clicking on the "See related article" link will send you to the article itself.

- If the comment was submitted in response to a cybersurvey, clicking on the headline will take you to the cybersurvey and its related comments.

- If you click on the headline of a forum post that was simply posted in the forum, you will get all posts with that same headline.

If you want to add a comment to a thread in the forum, use the same headline as the post to which you want to respond.

If you find a problem, please tell us, and thanks in advance for your patience as we work to improve the forums for you.
