Mexico justice means catch and release

Submitted by dguard on
Prohibitionist justice doesn't seem to work very well. Records obtained by The Associated Press show that the Mexican government arrested 226,667 drug suspects between December 2006 and September 2009. Less than a quarter of them were charged and only 15 percent saw a verdict (and the Mexican attorney general's office won't say how many of those were guilty).
