That is why its one at a time.. Instead of 20,000 arrest there would be 150,000 arrest. THEY DON'T WANT THAT.

There are other reasons too. Nobody wants to help pay for a bigger jail in Louisville or anywhere else in this state. Not the Metro Council, Mayor, state legislature, Governor. or the US government. This city has a growing violent crime problem and the only thing our cheap and liberal politicians can do is let criminals go free. Thats not a good answer when the criminal is going to cost society a lot more money by killing people, robbing, stealing, raping, rioting, and getting kids hooked on drugs for life. The Mayor and Chief can save their breath trying to telling the licensed public to leave their guns at home like they tried last spring after the downtown race riots.

True, as far as letting people go with just a citation/court date or telling them to go have their traffic violation bench warrant redocketed. There are plenty of people who need to go to jail, but on a busy Friday night with minimum manpower to respond to calls, plus a two hour wait at Corrections.... I would totally be okay with seeing my tax dollars go toward a huge mega-jail and about 1,000 more corrections officers in Louisville Metro.
