Screw all the judges who just throw them back into the world with zero fucks given.

Yeah, well, people vote for those lenient Superior Court Judges.  And they vote for in support of the Appellate Judges nominated by the governor.  

It's the "will of the people"... at least it is here in the DPRK.

Yep, or in other states it’s just laziness…”oh they’re the incumbent? Sure, why not”

Excellent.

“It’s a foregone conclusion that at a minimum, this guy is going to be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. The only question is how many more years there will be in addition to that there will be, and our office’s goal is to get every single of of them,” 23rd Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler said.

DUI/DWI penalties, especially for repeat offenders and first time offenders resulting in severe bodily harm/death, need to be multiple orders of magnitude worse. It is despicable how little punishment DUI offenders receive. Screw all the judges who just throw them back into the world with zero fucks given.

Second offense, permanent loss of license. 

You get to be dumb once. After that it's intentional.

From a philosophical standpoint I don't understand life in prison with hundreds of extra years versus the death penalty.  Seems cruel to the offender and unsatisfying for victims. Just kill them.  What am I missing about the utility of this punishment?

I'd vote for that.  With extra penalties if you hurt someone.
