This guy is back out on the streets someplace in LA. The DA's office will not tell me where he is living. The evening that he broke into my home, he was completely drunk. He obviously has an anger management issue and claims to suffer from PTSD from battle. The guy is dangerous and based on his training, he is a deadly weapon.

I was disgusted with my experience with the DA's office. All they want is a conviction of any kind and since this was not a violent crime, by their definition, I guess it did not warrant spending the time and money to prosecute. I had to put incredible amounts of pressure the entire time to get them to prosecute on any level. The system is set up to punish after the fact and not so much to discourage or prevent crimes.

Without help this guy will kill someone one day and if they care, it will rest of the the DA's office and to a lesser degree, the judge who did the sentencing.
