If you don't keep violent criminals off the street, you will see more violence. The Many Mug Shots of a Killer : The Other McCain
This is about the person who killed Brianna Kupfer in Los Angeles. He was known to law enforcement.
Wednesday, he was identified as Shawn Laval Smith, 31, who has a criminal record in three states extending back at least to 2010. He was repeatedly arrested in Charleston County, S.C., as well as in Charlotte, N.C., before relocating to California sometime after 2019. Smith was arrested Wednesday in Pasadena, about 17 miles from the furniture store where Kupfer was stabbed to death last week.
He didn't start with murder, but he apparently ended there.
Murder is not usually an entry-level crime. If you can’t lock up perpetrators of so-called “minor” offenses — and firing a flare gun into somebody’s car is apparently “minor” — then you’re going to have a lot more murders.
It really isn't rocket science.
