Police called me today and informed me she was found. I think she had been there since the last night I saw her. I'm a little disappointed nobody found her sooner.

I don't think the public wants a system that's more weighted to defending murderers, rapists, and child abusers than it is toward prosecuting them. The public safety is going to suffer unless and until the Legislature takes a totally different view of how we fund prosecutors' offices.

They called 911 and reported it to the police,

The joke used to be that a thug with a long police record could show up, run the 40 in 4.4 seconds and be a high draft choice. But that's not always the case anymore.

They were deported last night with a police escort after serving 12 years in a federal penitentiary.

Think of the police officer in the dead of night, working in the rain, and he sees that on someone. Think about what his reaction could be. That's a tragedy in the making.
