Rogers County DA program allows low-level offenders to do community service, for a fee

For years, a northeastern Oklahoma district attorney’s office has operated a program that requires low-level offenders to pay a monthly fee in order to participate in court-ordered community service, generating hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue for the prosecutor’s office and providing labor assistance to local nonprofit and government agencies.

    double jeopardy, its one thing to make a law breaker do community service , its another thing to make them pay on top of this injustice , even though they broke the law , their time should be worth something ? but apparently their service is worth 0 .
