#1 Catch and release? Or will there be a stiff prison sentence, like 6 weeks?

#2 Unfortunately the efforts of the Minister of Interior will be nullified by those of the Minister of Justice who, traditionally is a bleeding heart liberal.

From these 4700 you can bet on the prosecution not pushing the case for about 2 thirds of them. That makes for only 1600. From these about 2 thirds will be realeased despite overwhelming evidence or get a suspended senytence. That makes for only 600 or so who will got to jail.

Furthermore the French jails are already overcrowded. They have been for years and of course, the "solution' has been to release the criminals on the genberal population. Nobody between the politicians and still more between the MSM points that there are two altrernative solutions for the problem of overcrowded jails: build more jails and Comrades Staline's solution.

#3 Have them on high profile work details repairing much of the damage that they caused.
For these young people to see that if they do the crime, they have to clean it up, may be especially effective in their own neighborhoods. A nice learning curve.
