Is the 80-20 Policy part of the problem here?
It is my perception that criminal activity is rapidly spiking in urban areas throughout Montana. So, I find myself asking why?
It isn't just Great Falls, although we have a healthy share of the problem.
I submit to you that it is now the policy of the State Department of Corrections that only 20% of the individuals "in" the Department to be incarcerated. Too many criminals are being wholesale released from prison so that the DoC can meet this threshold.
If this is going to be our Governor's policy, he needs to provide our communities with extra funds for more parole and police officers.
