Part 8/13:

Adding to the crisis, recent cases highlight failures at various levels of law enforcement and judicial systems. A disturbing example involves a sexual predator, Abd Mahhat Billy Muhammad, who, despite multiple heinous crimes—including assaults on minors—was released early due to plea deals that credited him with time served. Such leniency fosters widespread public disillusionment, especially when victims are left without justice.

Local prosecutors and district attorneys, often influenced by policies promoting leniency or racial equity concerns, are shown to be soft on crime, releasing violent offenders back into the community. The judiciary often appears out of step with public expectations of justice, leading to increased crime and societal instability.
