North Pole police officer Phil McBroom, best friend of Sgt. Allen Brandt, was clearly addressing Sen. John Coghill's signature crime reform bill, SB-91, while speaking at yesterday's memorial: 

"...Same individuals are arrested and turned back on to the streets with no fear of repercussion because there is little penalty for wrong doing... Today I will bury my best friend- and my brother- and there is no dollar savings and no amount of social experimentation that could make that worthwhile."
