Next, the defense team will be crying for leniency in sentencing because it was in their genes! I bet child molesters will get tied into this somehow.

Things were never the same after Levi Strauss & Company moved to China.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Have no doubt the study is correct - in fact surprised they needed a study to find it out - most people have known families where unfortunate traits are handed down - but letting it influence sentencing would be as stupid as being more lenient because the offender was under the influence of drink or drugs. My inclination when I hear about 'mitigating factors' is that often the sentence should be increased.

I would like to see that people with problems should alert authorities when they first show signs of inclinations or problems. Then, if and when they get caught, there is a reduction of sentence.

This would allow authorities to keep an eye out or know who to call on once something happens. Failure to alert means full sentences or more.

Why would someone contemplating committing a crime alert the authorities? If the threat of the full sentence wouldn't be enough to deter him without reporting why would it induce him to make detection of his crime a near-certainty? (Obviously we're talking about someone here who won't be prevented from committing the crime based on moral considerations or else he wouldn't commit the crime with or without self-reporting.)

Would you like to see the report on how the government has changed the public’s DNA?
