Every year the U.S. averages nearly 1.4 million violent crimes, many of them by ex-cons. Many law-abiding citizens believe the American justice system needs an overhaul. Author Edwin J. Sprague has an innovative idea: a point system for violent criminal acts.

Outlined in his fictional book, based on real life, THE POINT GUARD and inspired by the O.J. Simpson trial, Sprague has a no-nonsense plan to get dangerous criminals off the streets for good. Sprague asks why give someone three strikes when you can put them away the first time?

Each Year 700,000 Criminals
Are Released Many of Whom Shouldn’t Be Let Out at All.
Is the Government Doing Enough to Protect You?

These are the details of Sprague’s vision of what American justice could and should look like:

• Every violent offense is issued points.

 • One hundred points before jail time.

• Every 10 points over 100 is one year mandatory jail time.

• A murder conviction is an automatic 90 years — and no parole.

• Multiple murders conviction — a 24-hour execution.

Sprague’s comprehensive program covers courtroom procedure and the impact on prisons. He suggests that taped courtroom procedures, devoid of theatrics, be shown to juries and changing prisons into profitable manufacturing facilities.
