Former Vice President Joe Biden has chosen Ketanji Brown Jackson as his nominee to the Supreme Court, filling the seat that will be left by Justice Breyer’s retirement from the court. I didn’t know how I felt about that announcement when it was made because I wasn’t too familiar with her, but revelations like this make me, shall we say, far from excited for her to ascend to the highest court in the nation.

Originally uncovered by the American Accountability Foundation, the Post Millennial reports that Judge Jackson once wrote in Harvard Law Review, arguing that the measures taken to prevent sex offenders from reoffending—such as registration, DNA identification, and notifying neighbors—“unfair and unnecessarily burdensome.” She wrote:

“Judges should abandon the prevention/punishment analyses that rely on legislative intent, that routinely apply the Kennedy factors, and that assess the ‘excessiveness’ of a sex offender statute's punitive effects in favor of a more principled approach to characterization. […] a principled approach in­volves assessing the impact of sex offender statutes and deeming the laws "punitive" to the extent that they operate to deprive sex criminals of a legal right in a manner that primarily has retributive or general­ deterrent effects.”

For me—and I think most decent people—I couldn’t care less if sex offenders were literally sentenced to life in prison without parole. They should be counting their blessings if they’re ever let out of prison. I’m a fan of the Russian model, in this regard. Both Russian models. And if the punishment is a lifetime of dealing with the shame and weight of one’s decision to sexually violate another person, so be it. I see nothing wrong with it.

What is alarming to me is the way Judge Jackson does see something wrong with it. The justice system regularly hands down life sentences. Although, I’m sure Jackson has written about the need for criminal justice reform in this area, as well.

But as crime surges in cities around the country, the last thing we need is another justice manning the bench, looking to allow sex offenders, or any criminal for that matter, to walk with lesser punishments. Law and order must be restored not loosened.

Jackson can look forward to an easy confirmation, though. Unless a handful of Democrats choose to turncoat on their radical brethren (which isn’t about to happen), Jackson will be sitting on the Supreme Court in no time.

God, help us.
