Part of the problem is that judges have to weigh the avaliable space in prisons to comply with court orders about prison crowding.

The way we elect judges isn't good, and it results in people who should not be on the bench making terrible decisions, however it's also not entirely the fault of judges when bad outcomes happen due lack of available prison space.

I am skipping over the rest of the race-based comments, just to say I am so glad they caught the ones responsible for this murder. I hope the entire bookshelf is thrown at them. The area around Temple seems to be getting worse and worse, certainly worse than when I took classes there back in the early 2000's
