Is drug addiction a crime?

When people are just simply placed into prison vs. drug treatment, they will most likely not get the help they need to deal with the issues that causes people to have a drug addiction. Once released from the correctional institute, most will go right back to their old habits and continue their path of destruction only to end up in the system again to serve even more time.

About Me

View my complete profile

I have noticed many readers but no comments, please feel free to leave a comment good or bad. I appreciate your time in reading. I don't offend easily...I have heard it all from "He got what he deserved" to "A criminal is a criminal". I in no way condone the actions of my husband but I do feel the punishment should fit the crime. In a state that offers probation for murder and lately dismissed thousands of cases because the suspect had not been apprehended, the sentence seems a little harsh.
