[quote]JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- His rap sheet is 31 pages long, and one businessman who has come face-to-face with him said he represents the crime problem in Jacksonville.
Now prosecutors said the man who has been in and out of jail could wind up spending a lot more time in jail.
Vincent Hudson, 30, has been arrested more than 40 times since he turned 18.
Nine of those arrests came since 2006 when he was shot inside that businessman's Murray Hill electronics store.
"This guy right here is the poster child, I believe, of the crime problem here in Jacksonville," businessman Doug Freeman said.
Freeman shot Hudson inside his because he said Hudson was following and threatening his daughter.
"I was in fear of my life, and I was in fear of everyone else's life," Freeman said at the time.
Hudson claimed he was the victim that day, but despite the violence, neither man was charged.

But Hudson's history of arrests, which, as an adult, date back to 1998, have continued.
Since the 2006 encounter, he's been put in the Duval County jail nine different times.
Each time, either through a plea deal or by charges being dropped, he's gotten out.
"Every time he's in the court system, nothing happens," Freeman said. "He's back out on the street committing other crimes."
Freeman said he's followed Hudson's path through the legal system because he's concerned. He said he's called the state attorney's office, sent e-mails and letters, but has not gotten a response about a man he believes is extremely dangerous.
"Something has to be done," he said.
Some of Hudson's charges are relatively minor, like giving a false name to police, disorderly intoxication and driving with a suspended license.
Others are more serious -- many are felonies, like strong armed robbery, drug possession, exposing himself, one felony he spent 36 days in jail for.
Freeman said he's concerned that something devastating will happen before Hudson is locked up long term.
"This guy out on the street is going to come back and bite the state," Freeman said. "It's just a matter of time. I'm surprised with his history something bad hasn't happened."
Hudson is currently in jail on charges of aggravated battery and robbery dating back to June. He will be in court on Tuesday, and the state said it wants his $10,000 bond revoked.
If Hudson is convicted on those two charges, he will be in jail for a mandatory 15 years and potentially 30 years, depending on the judge's sentence.[/quote]

Commit 50 crimes and the 51st doesn't have jail time.

Oh you know, lashes and stoning, shitty ass food, horrible cells, No TV (I have no fucking idea why there's TV in American Prisons), No interacting with other prisoners, etc.

They should just revert to Hammurabi's Code. Proved effective all that time ago. Maybe alter it so anything and everything is punished to the extreme :D
Only in Florida.

Hang that man.
Why is it that nearly every time you hear about this kind of thing the person involved is black? (I'm not trying to be racist, it's just something I've noticed.)
Um, why would you need to commit crime 44 times, and your not even [b]20[/b]?
Throw him in the nuthouse, I say!
Just fucking kill him already, he won't be missed.

Specifically jokes? I commented on it before your post.
That a fucking great plan Murray, announce on public television that it's your new life long goal to have a criminal with a history of armed crime and violence, who knows not just where you work but also where you and your family live, thrown in prison for 15 to 30 years.
12 years, 44 arrests? what the hell

Jail is supposed to teach you a lesson.
So you think "I don't ever want to go back there again"
He needs a new career, he seems shit at this one.

No, jail's supposed to re-habilitate you. To teach you that crime isn't the only way forward.
