Judge Gray urges grass roots review of drug laws
California judge James P. Gray told a Lawrence Kiwanis Club luncheon that U S drug laws have failed and require change. He urged debate on ending criminal penalties for drugs and legalizing help, warning current policies fuel crime and prison growth while noting drugs remain part of society. Gray cited high U S prison rates and in Orange County 75 to 80 percent of crime as drug related, calling for a better approach to reduce violent crime.
