GET TOUGHER ON DRUG DEALERS

Involving the police, government, neighborhood representatives along
with the apartment owners is a very important step in controlling the
drug houses.

Using the plan that number of cities have in effect sounds like a good
beginning.

Playing the devil's advocate, the thought I had is where did these
drug dealers come from?

Could it be possible that a number came from cities that used this set
of laws?

Where do these drug dealers go after they are evicted? Do they just
move to another community that doesn't have the eviction process?

Another question is that if the police have enough information that
will allow an eviction for drug dealing, why aren't drug dealers
charged in court and made to suffer the penalty for their illegal
sales of drugs?

Or perhaps, it's enough to get these criminals to move on to another
community is enough.

Yes, serious crime is down in Wisconsin.
