POLL: How do you feel about your MO Legislature preventing persistent DWI offenders from being sent to prision

시작 공유
The Missouri Legislature is in the process of creating new guidelines for parole. Senator Matt Bartle has proposed that persistent DWI offenders (4 or more DWI's) should not recieve prison time, regardless of the prison sentence imposed by a judge (i.e. if a judge senteces someone to 10 years in prison for his 6th DWI, he would be immediately placed on parole and released). The proposal would accomplish this goal by defining persisent DWI offenses as non-violent felonies. This would place a person committing thier 6th DWI offense in the same category as non-payment of child support. Do believe that persistent DWI offenders are "non-violent offenders" and not removed from society?
