Quoting from text accompanying video:

"Hill has been arrested 15 other times in South Florida since 2011 on various charges, including petty theft, grand theft, burglary and robbery.

Hill has been in jail without bond since his arrest. He is being charged as an adult and could face life in prison if convicted."

I have two questions. They're pretty much rhetorical questions, because I don't expect any forum members have the answers.

My questions are:

Why was Hill out of jail roaming the streets in the first place?

And...

Florida has the death penalty. Why didn't the district attorney pursue that as a sentence instead of this thing of he "could face life in prison"?

We see this same level of recidivism by the hoodlums and poor decision making on the part of the district attorney here. And we see it on an almost weekly basis. Just a week or so, we had a guy charged with first degree murder. The judge set bail, his family put up the money, and he bonded out in two days.

What's wrong with this picture?

It's a sad state of affairs.
