Obamaville: Woman Arrested 396 Times

From the Chicago Tribune: The Chicago woman who has robbed and assaulted her way to 396 arrests may be released from prison earlier than November — that is, if she’s accepted into a state-approved mental health and substance abuse program.

Shermain Miles appeared before the Illinois Prisoner Review Board on Tuesday in Downstate Lincoln. Chairman Adam Monreal said the board received an update from Miles’ counselor, who said the 51-year-old woman has been “very cooperative and informed,” receiving mental health care while at the Logan Correctional Center, and is even doing some outreach activities with recent females who come into the prison.....

Since 1978, Chicago Police alone have arrested Miles 396 times, mostly on the North Side — under at least 83 different aliases. Those arrests include 92 for theft, 65 for disorderly conduct, 59 for prostitution-related crimes and five for robbery or attempted robbery.  http://www.suntimes.com/21507807-761/woman-arrested-396-times-may-move-to-mental-health-facility.html

At what point do you say that a person forfeits their right to live freely in society?  100 arrests?  200 arrests?  400 arrests?

Clearly, this woman wants to be institutionalized and will do anything, including robbing and assaulting someone to get back into jail.

Just keep her locked up.

Just another day in Obamaville.
