The One-Size-Fits-All Columbia Candidate Survey
Also online at the Columbia Heart Beat

Welcome to the third annual One-Size-Fits-All Candidate Survey, where city council and school board candidates answer questions about issues that affect not just one, but BOTH organizations. We'll be releasing answers to five sets of questions over the course of the campaign.
This time, 2nd ward council candidates Jason Thornhill and Allan Sharrock tackle crime, along with school board candidates Sam Phillips and Michelle Pruitt. Their answers are below their names.
Adding Judges and Landlords to The Criminal Justice Equation
Gatehouse Apartments, at 2401 W. Broadway, has been featured in over a dozen news stories on rising crime in Columbia. Two weeks ago, Gatehouse Apartments resident Eric Kegler Lambert, 21, out on bond for a forgery violation two weeks earlier, was arrested again for probation and parole violations.
Lambert's had breaks by the bushel. In 2005, he faced 1st degree burglary and armed criminal action charges, later plea-bargained to 2nd degree burglary. After a stretch of -- not jail time but "home detention" at 1322 Raleigh Drive -- Boone County Judge Ellen Roper suspended Lambert's five-year prison sentence and placed him on probation. But after Lambert failed to show up for drug rehab at Reality House, Roper revoked his probation and reinstated his 5-year prison sentence.
That was in October 2006. It's February 2009, and for some reason, Eric Kegler Lambert is living, not at the Big House, but at Gatehouse.

are more violent and troubling illustrations of the role our courts and landlords should be playing to keep dangerous repeat offenders off the streets, away from our children, and out of our neighborhoods.
