The written procedures should continue as written. However, the problems arise when not followed as in the case of Trump during his election of 2016 and Hillary Clinton. That resulted in a win for Trump. We are all aware how badly that was for this country.

only in a state like Oregon would democrats vote to NOT penalize people that brutally beat people to the degree they have life altering injuries. How is this even real. This should be voted on with 100% support. The question you need to ask is why?

I vote for tougher penalties on crime altogether. Especially violent crime towards children. Anyone who harms a child like Ezra should never see the light of day again. Stop this soft on crime BS. DA's and judges should be permanently removed from office.

Oregon is far too soft on crime in general, the courts need to step it up and do their job, one should not have a dozen parole/probation violations before they just simply get locked up for a spell, this should have happened the first violation!!

Yes definitely, that poor child's life has been terribly altered! We need much tougher serious crime punishments, the soft on crime left proves it is deeply hurting America. Dangerous criminal walking the streets and hurting more people is seriously unbelievable, the D A ,s should be charged!

He shot the boy because he was black. If the boy was white we would not be having a debate right now. He should be charged with attempted murder.

KMIZ and other news media are not bothering to inform the public that Lester is an 84-year-old dementia patient.
