Castillo claims she didn't know about the drug operation, but agents said she should have known something was wrong when quantities of money and drugs were repeatedly found on the coaches.
It's sad she went to prison, but if the jury came back with a guilty verdict, blame them, because they believed that she knew that the drugs and money were on the coaches.

So, in the Economics of Crime, your perverse incentives if you are even tangentially related to the drug trade are:
a) go all in, (become a kingpin, hit man, anyone with info)
or
b) If you're going to be arrested, and you don't know much, don't go quietly: start shooting. Because really, the only sentence worse than life in prison is death row, and statistically it's still pretty hard to get on that list. Who knows, you might get away, and while you might have been able to do 1, 2, 3, or even 5 years if that was an option, life without parole is a pretty heavy sentence.
\At some point aren't the officers involved fearful of these types of mandatory sentences, for fear of their own well being?

I would have thought the same. But the creeping militarization of the police forces means they have much better equipment and likely have less to fear from a suspect shooting at them. Body armor, automatic weapons, tear gas, tazers, etc.

Oh, the stats are completely the other way around, which is why the drug war is so racist, and anyone that supports the drug war... or votes for someone who does... is also quite racist in my opinion.
But as for an individual, black+hispanic is 50%, so there's not much of a leap there.

Exactly. Read a comment on some site (oddly, not here) that said she was 18 and couldn't wait until her baby came in a few months so she could be a MILF.
Completely ignoring the fact that the "I" is subjective, of course.
The "M" should stand for maturity, and not motherhood.

Are you a completely illiterate moron?
Convicted in a drug-smuggling conspiracy, 56-year-old Castillo maintains that she didn't know she was being used as a pawn in a cocaine trafficking operation between Mexico and Houston. Given her alleged role as a low-level player in the conspiracy, it makes sense that she was not privy to — and therefore could not provide — any valuable information to federal agents that could lead to the arrest and prosecution of the leaders or other high level members of the alleged conspiracy. Since she was of no help to the government, Castillo received the harshest sentence of the approximately 68 people involved in the scheme, despite being a first-time offender who never saw the drugs she was accused of trafficking.

You might think that being a grandmother is somehow a mitigating factor to smuggling a ton of cocaine from mexico to the US in a fake bus company. You might think beleivng in law and order makes someone a "psycho".. but you'd be wrong.
in fact, the medical definiton of psychosis is grounded on a loss of contact with reality, where one has fixed and false beliefs - which are called delusions - about what is actually occurring typically with some amount of visual and auditory hallucinations.
You've got the delusional part down perfectly.

You're delusional for thinking LWOP is an appropriate punishment for what she did.
And, sorry, but no. That's not "law and order".

It's amazing to me that even phil is more reasonable than gahbrone sometimes.

Oh, he's just kidding. Gahbrone's a total pothead, yknow. He's been arrested on a possession charge thrice, but he's white....so medical school.

You might pretend that smuggling a ton of cocaine from mexico to the US via a fake bus company is a small crime, but that would be as delusional as the direct implication that being a "grandmother" is a mitigating factor to a crime.

quick1: Somehow I'm not shocked that you would call people who believe the War on Drugs is a stupid ass idea "brain damaged".
I would call the people who believe the War on Drugs is a stupid ass idea and then who vote for more of it "brain damaged".

Oh, so she loaded the ton of cocaine on the bus, then drove the bus herself from Mexico into the US?
I missed that part of the article.
And even if she had done those things, LWOP is not fucking appropriate.

I think making a distinction between the workers and the executives is counter-productive as it prevents us from indicting CEOs.

By your brain damaged logic, she could have ordered and paid for a hit on her husband but never touched the weapon or pulled the trigger and thus been innocent.
Seek professional help, since you clearly function with the brain of a 5 year old.

gahbrone: Because these are not the image the headline evokes for anyone not brain damaged (that is not a liberal):
