61-year-old woman ‘not expected to survive’ after being savagely beaten on a CTA train in the Loop: prosecutors
CHICAGO — Prosecutors say a 61-year-old woman is brain dead and will likely die after an eight-time felon, on parole for robbing an undercover CPD narcotics officer, savagely beat her during a robbery aboard a Red Line train in downtown Chicago.
Judge William Fahy granted the state’s petition to detain Mijawon Johnson, 36, as a public safety threat during a hearing at the Leighton Criminal Courthouse. State officials have also moved to revoke his parole.
Surveillance video showed Johnson trying to steal the Uptown woman’s bag on a train car near State-Lake around 1:33 a.m. on January 4, officials said. He soon launched a violent attack, pinning her head on a seat and repeatedly punching her in the head and stomach, the detention petition said. Officials said he “stomped” on her body and left her on the train.

Multiple times, absolutely. Aren't you done with criminals beating people to death. Do we give them a freebie. Like a dog getting one free bite. One free kill, then we really start paying attention.So capital punishment for aggravated assault. Wow.
Yeah, your fellow conservative thinks it’s a one and done:Multiple times, absolutely. Aren't you done with criminals beating people to death. Do we give them a freebie. Like a dog getting one free bite. One free kill, then we really start paying attention.
I think you’re right if it’s a 3rd strike offense...Crimes involving weapons, should all be facing the death penalty.
Really? *See below....can’t go along with that. Not a fan of the death penalty for one thing;
In those circumstances, it isn't clear-cut.for another, if you used a 2 X 4 to hit someone during a fight.. the death penalty seems harsh.
One wonders sometimes if that is their thought process.You are right, men that put a knife to a 12 year old girl's throat while violently raping her deserve many chances. At least three or four.
What is your hang-up on right-wingers?Another right winger hung up on kids and sex.
* Your Avatar begs me to ask if you think the fact that Palestinians in Gaza wake up every morning warrants their extermination or not?Do you think he scenario I gave warrants a death penalty?
So the idea here is we are going to punish people for what they might do rather than what they have done. Did you really think that one through?Multiple times, absolutely. Aren't you done with criminals beating people to death. Do we give them a freebie. Like a dog getting one free bite. One free kill, then we really start paying attention.
There will always be problems with any system we choose. Things like 3-strikes impose a one size fits all solution which has been a failure. I don’t think a judicial oversight panel is the answer.Maybe I'm missing something but we've had 3 strike laws for decades. The problem was they were so generically written that it ended up filling the prisons with minor drug offenders. What we need IMO are judicial oversight committees who can review cases of VIOLENT criminals and make sure the judge's ruling makes sense. All too often we see repeat violent offenders finally killing someone and then everyone asks "how is this guy back on the street"?
No. They would be punished for three or more violent assaults. It's called a three strikes law for a reason.So the idea here is we are going to punish people for what they might do rather than what they have done. Did you really think that one through?
I suggest judicial oversight panels because the 3 strike laws have been a failure as you agree. The oversight panels would bring another set of legal eyes to these WTF? cases that result in violent criminals being released on the public. I don't see what the downside would be.There will always be problems with any system we choose. Things like 3-strikes impose a one size fits all solution which has been a failure.

What criminals have done is a good predictor of what they will do. REhabilitation is rarely effective.So the idea here is we are going to punish people for what they might do rather than what they have done. Did you really think that one through?
You’re second sentence is arguable.What criminals have done is a good predictor of what they will do. REhabilitation is rarely effective.
I do not want to take chances on someone who is worthless and dangerous.You’re second sentence is arguable.
But the biggest issue is punishing people (or executing them) on the basis of what they MIGHT do…good lord, that’s the stuff of science fiction! Think it through!
The problem with that attitude is that by the time a criminal is convicted of three felonies, he’s had several dozen or more pled down to misdemeanors. D.A.s plead down far more cases than they take to trial.I have to agree with you. But I would stipulate the class of felony convictions be taken into account.
State Jail Felonies for example; that often involves having narcotics. I understand that you can get felony DWI convictions. Should someone go away for life if their third strike is a non-violent crime? I think any gun crime should be one and done if the gun is brandished during the crime (it doesn’t have to be fired).
I agree with the idea...3 strikes and you’re out. But I’m not sure that life in prison is the right sentence in all crimes. I’d say a minimum of 20 years/mandatory 15.
DWI felonies are violent crimes.I have to agree with you. But I would stipulate the class of felony convictions be taken into account.

No they're not.DWI felonies are violent crimes.
Heroin (as it is spelled in English) is a schedule I narcotic.Narcotics, Heroine, those are extremely dangerous people. If you get 3 felony narcotic convictions, hell yea, you need to be locked up forever.
Robbery is usually a felony 2 so yep... mere possession? Nope.Hooked on heroine, is no joke, they may not be violent, but if they get convicted of a felony narcotic charge it is because they did do something extremely dangerous or were caught while committing another felony like robbery.
candycorn, you could not be more ignorant.DWI felonies are violent crimes.
No they're not
Were you dropped on your head at birth? You said DWI was a violent crime. You didn’t mention anyone else being involved.candycorn, you could not be more ignorant.
Driving while intoxicated is a Misdemeanor.
Killing or injuring a person, driving while intoxicated is a felony.
Anyone driving under the influence is risking murdering other people. Driving is dangerous at any time, driving impaired is criminally stupid. So yes, at least in my opinion, DUI is a violent crime.No they're not.
