Wow, what a record.
Here's the problem: He was sentenced to many more years than he actually served in prison. Why? Because the sentences were all CONCURRENT. I say it's time to eliminate concurrent sentencing and make it mandatory to make all sentences CONSECUTIVE. If that had been the case, this crime would not have been committed. The police can only do so much - it's the court system that needs to man up and fix the crime problem.
