When is somebody going to want them to do their time and stay in jail until their trial . Wake TF up woke democrats . These people are habitual offenders who will never amount to anything other than what they are – CRIMINALS .
Criminals belong in jail . If we don’t have enough cells for them , send them to El Salvador .
