Criminaless Crimes

A long thumbsucker in the always sucking Times today-- Farm Felons Pick Off California Crops, reminds us that not all crimes have criminals. Crimes in which the criminals might be an ethnic group under the protection of the Times become simply crimes without criminals.
Sergeant Reed — who eventually arrested a suspect after staking out a Kern County vineyard — is just one of dozens of deputies on the front lines of agricultural crime in California, home to the nation’s most productive farms and the people who prey on them. While thievery has long been a fact of life in the country, such crimes are on the rise and fighting them has become harder in many parts of California as many grants for rural law enforcement have withered on the vine.

Whodunit? JESSE McKINLEY, the Times reporter, really can't say. Does he know? Si, si, senor.

Exactly, and it wasn't a black man who stole those manhole covers in Sacramento.

Stop giving the courts someone to release into these programs. Catch the perp in the act, disappear them. Or leaave them there with the goods for the po-lice to find.
