Crime and Punishment
Jun. 2nd, 2005 10:55 amIn an article today regarding the recent Runaway Bride case, the closing paragraph was:
"Later recantation doesn't excuse you from the criminal behavior, under Georgia law," Gwinnett County District Attorney Danny Porter said. "That would be like stealing something and then putting it back. It doesn't help you to say, 'Oh, I put it back.' "
( Mr. Porter's statement bothers me. )
