DOUBLE CENTURY FOR KEVIN

Kevin Holder is in biiiiiig trouble if Nebraska ever introduces a 227 strikes law:

Kevin Holder’s rap sheet is 43 pages long, dating back to 1980, and he just got another entry - his 226th arrest. Police say they caught him Sunday morning after a brief chase and found burglar tools in his possession.

“He’s very well-known to Lincoln police officers,” Police Chief Tom Casady said.

You don’t say. Incredibly, Holder isn’t a record-holder, not even in Lincoln-Lancaster County. Read on for details.

  2. But you have to ask yourself-who is the real victim here?

  3. ...prosecutors will urge a judge to treat Holder as a habitual criminal.

    Gee, ya think?!? Seems like they might have considered that back when he was still in double digits.

  4. Even more amazing: the University of Nebraska never offered him a football scholarship.

  5. This is probably the norm everywhere, unnoticed by most law-abiding citizens.  It’s a pretty good argument for the three-strikes law, too.

    So true. How did this valuable asset to Cornhusker football, ever escape their grasp?

  7. What about root causes?. C’mon people, it’s always someone elses fault.

  8. Personally, I blame the manufacturers of burglar’s tools.

  9. Heck, I blame the builders of houses.

  10. I’ve seen more than a few guys with 100+ charges on their rap sheets in my work as a criminal defense lawyer.  They just can not keep out of trouble.  I’ve dealth with guys who got arrested they day they were released and some who got new charges in jail and prison.

    Of course I should mention the story of a notorious probation oficer.  If the defendant had a lengthy record, when the judge asked about the record, the officer would let the recors unfold its full length (this was when they were printed on continuous sheets).

  11. This is why I favor a point system. Every crime is rated for points. Toss your fast-food bag out of your car window? Three points. Steal a car stereo? Ten points. Burglary? Twenty points. Forcible rape? Fifty points. Murder? Ninety points.

    If you hit 100, you’re executed.

    Total point accumulation is reduced by 10% per year, so if you turn your life around and behave, you can knock it down.

  12. It sounds like someone needs a booting.

  13. Dave S., any points for:

    Taking the tots to protest marches?
    Telling people not to drive SUVs whilst driving them yourself?
    Deliberately and with malice aforethought looking unattractive?
    Annoying others with one’s veganism by being so damn loud about it?

  14. JAWolf - now that’s my kind of probation officer! 

    Did he have anyone behind him, when the thing was unfolding, whisper loudly “flip… flip… flip… flip… flip…”

  15. I blame lock manufacturers.  Without locks no one would need burglar tools.

    My brother is a retired cop and he says only two things stop burglars: being in prison and dying.

  16. 34 fast food bags tossed = death? I guess that’s what they call tough love.
