Linda Lingle on Drugs

Republican Governor (HI)


Addicts get treatment; dealers & repeat users get jail

Simple users, or addicts, should receive treatment. Drug dealers should be sent to jail. First time offenders for possession should be diverted to a treatment program with mandatory jail time as the alternative if they refuse treatment. Repeat offenders and those who fail treatment should get a mandatory prison term.
