Let's play a game called What's the Point.
According to CNN A 71 year old man was arrested after being on the run for 30 years. The guy was wanted on a Canadian warrant for smuggling 500 pounds of marijuana. He faked a heart attack before extradition and escaped from a hospital.
What's the point of arresting this guy? At 71 years old, what life can you possibly take away from him? Further, he's managed to stay out of trouble for the past thirty years. Isn't the point of prison to rehabilitate people? Looks like he found a workaround. I think they should just punch him one good time in the gut for making the cops who let him escape look bad and then send him back on his merry way. Instead, they'll bother with a trial, put him in jail and make him a burden on the state.
What's the point?
