She might be alive if Three Strikes had been around longer

Joseph Brider raped and murdered Juliana Herrera just 72 days after he was released on parole for an earlier rape. His full criminal history is unknown, but what we do know is:
- Convicted of rape in 2014
- 27 previous convictions
- 10 police call outs for domestic violence on a previous partner
- Convicted of assaulted “a number of times” for assaulting the previous partner
He started planning his rape of Herrera within a week of being released. He is one of those recidivists who the moment he is free, he is looking for his next victim. The quicker they get out, the quicker they create a new victim.
If his earlier assaults had qualified as strikes (which is likely) then his 2014 rape would have seen him locked up for 20 years, not seven.
