State Corrections brass wants fewer prisoners. :: 12/01/2013

We're not sure how Wetzel can be amazed that6 out of 10 prisoners aren't attending their first rodeo. Seems to us, if you want fewer residents at the various State run Iron Bar Hotels and Motels, you might consider shrinking the pool of recidivists. 55% of those who apply for parole get it the first time they apply. If you think about it, prison is hard to get into, and fairly easy to get out of. His complaint of 35 grand a year per inmate is easily remedied. Tent cities, baloney sandwiches, and the prisoners have to pay for lunch and lodging, too. Liberals like to feel good, we think, by letting crime slide. Wetzel should take a lesson from Sherriff Joe Arpaio in Maricopa County, AZ.
