A Good Judge

Many complain that the judges in this country are out of touch, or trying to set their own agendas.  In some ways that may be true, but its not necessarily a bad thing.

Take a look at Judge Olszewski in Pennsylvania.  He recently sentenced three teenage latinos to get GEDs and learn English.  The men were convicted of committing some (relatively) minor street crimes.  They needed translators during the court proceedings.  Obviously locking these guys up for 2 years is going to cost the commonwealth a lot of money and may turn them into career criminals.  This ruling could turn them into more productive citizens and I'm all for it.
