UNEQUAL JUSTICE

In a response to a recent letter on letting Judge Gilbert off, the writer
might want to talk to the few who have had an injustice done on them by our
judicial system.

A few months ago someone I know had been arrested on the charges he was
smoking marijuana in his home. This man is an older man who has many
physical pains because of his past injuries. That does not justify him to
have illegal drugs in his home. He made a mistake, too, and he also
acknowledged it, but he is in jail. Did Judge Gilbert go to jail for his
mistakes? This man had to put up his home for bail and had to refinance it!
Did Judge Gilbert have to put up bail? He went to rehab, but who paid for
it?

There is no difference in the crime except for the punishment! Here is one
person who is a disabled person in pain and the other a judge!
