I agree with jon Boy, its the leniency and lattitude the courts have shown to this person, not the fact he is a drug addict per se
He has been released on bail and everytime has gone on to commit further offences
Your average person in the street, for doing the same thing, would have their bail revoked so fast it would make their head spin
Sending addicts to jail serves little purpose as drugs are actually easier to get inside and they are still addicts upon release
This guy has had the opportunity on numerous occasions to take advantage of rehab, opportunities most other addicts never get, and has wasted them
Let him rot in jail
