Courts criticize handling of narcotics arrests by courts
DEA Administrator Peter Bensinger told the International Association of Chiefs of Police that court rulings on narcotics cases undermine public concern over hard drug abuse. He cited widespread low bonds and short jail terms, noting about one third of federal narcotics convictions last year led to probation and many prisoners for heroin or cocaine faced three years or less. He warned that over 2,000 of 3,980 convicted in 1975 were back on the streets within a year. President Ford urged priority to anti crime legislation, including mandatory minimums and more federal judges. Bensinger called the situation a morale problem for officers while prison overcrowding exists.
