as a former resident of Nashville Arkansas, I do not see how the justice system claims to be unbiased. Mr. Steel has been in two seperate alcohol related accidents and yet he is still driving around with the potential to kill innocent people and my son is in jail for a much lesser charge. What gives with Mr.Steel and what makes him so special?

The answer to Denises question is everything is political in this town. From school sports to Judges. If you have the right name or plenty of money you can do anything and get away with it. A regular person in this town does not stand a chance in the world. Plus Steele is one of the oldest names here they are all lawyers and Judges. His daughter is a Judge at 30.
