Georgia blames the correctional officers for their own deaths.
Inmates: Rowe, 43, has been serving life without parole since 2002, and Dubose, 24, began a 20-year sentence in 2015. Both were convicted of armed robbery and other violent crimes. They have been cellmates more than once in Georgia's prisons, had known each other for "quite a while" and may have planned the escape together, Department of Corrections Assistant Commissioner Ricky Myrick said.
It is Interesting that the two "so called violent" prison escapees did NOT go on a killing spree from Georgia to Tennessee. In reality, Rowe and Dubose were never "killers" prior to their Georgia sentencing. So what does that say about the Georgia Department of Corrections?
So let's recap again: Georgia's excessive sentencing caused the escapees' desperation for freedom at the cost of the correctional staff's lives, and then Georgia Department of Corrections blame the dead correctional officers for being dead.
Putnam County prosecutor (i.e. the State of Georgia) now is considering another excessive sentencing for the two prison escapees. The death penalty? Why? You just blamed the dead officers for their own death. The Escapees did not kill anyone else. So where is the logic?
Georgia is NOT taking ownership of how they need prison sentencing reform at the court level. They are sentencing too many people for life that ARE NOT KILLERS.
People habitually carry concealed weapons with or without a permit. "Armed" is commonplace in 2017. Let's look at "Robbery?" Bank levies are legalized robberies of your bank account. Everyday Americans are constantly being robbed by poor decisions and capitalists take advantage of it. White collar robberies are happening just as much as blue collar petty scams.
So everyone is trying to get their taste of the American dream sometimes legally, but by unethically means like bank levies and sometimes, it is just that good ole illegal heist mentality that continues from the days of Christopher Columbus.
It is all the same thing. Georgia needs prison sentencing reform. The sentencing computation no longer computes to correct anything.
