Some criminals seem to get into a cycle of in and out of prison multiple times over a period of years.

Sheriff Millsap said even the judge’s hands are tied in some circumstances….
He said he feels that the remedy for certain repeat offenders should be simple…
Millsap said he would like to see “truth in sentencing” to follow the federal model.
