I understand the tougher stance on drugs in Florida and other states, but there should be some sort of equality here. If there are these types of sentences for people who deal there should be stiffer sentences for child molesters, murderers (manslaughter included), etc...
I spent some time today on the Florida DOC website, trying to find inmates serving 15 years and up for trafficking. I found one (although I know there's more, I didn't spend all day looking). This inmate had a 25 year sentence for trafficking cocaine, I believe it was 30 kilos, but am not sure (it was a lot). Anyway, most of the trafficking violators had a 3-4 year sentence. One female had one trafficking charge, a sale/manufacture charge and two other felony charges...she was serving 4 years.
I ran across a female convicted of voluntary manslaughter serving six years, she'll be out in 4 with good time.
Tough on crime is fine, but make it applicable to all.
