Jeff Landry on Crime

 

 


Reduce juvenile crime without placing them in adult prisons

We have opened a Multi-Agency Resource Center to reduce juvenile crime through early assessment and guidance--partnering with our Community and Technical College System to provide workforce training for young offenders. And contrary to George Soros and the money he spent lying to Louisiana citizens, had Amendment 3 passed we would have had 10's of millions of dollars more to invest in rehabilitation services, and not one juvenile would have been placed in an adult prison!

Real leaders need to step in against mayors & "woke" DA's

Sadly, crime has taken hold today while incompetent mayors and "woke" district attorneys are playing a dangerous game of "catch and release." In New Orleans, people are scared to pump gas or walk to their cars. Our capital city has one of the highest murder rates in the nation. And other cities around our state aren't far behind. Jeff believes every family deserves a safe neighborhood, and if those chosen to run these cities won't protect their citizens, then real leaders need to step in.

Supports capital punishment for certain crimes.

Landry supports the CC survey question on capital punishment

The Christian Coalition voter guide [is] one of the most powerful tools Christians have ever had to impact our society during elections. This simple tool has helped educate tens of millions of citizens across this nation as to where candidates for public office stand on key faith and family issues.

The CC survey summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: "Capital punishment for certain crimes, such as first degree murder & terrorism"
