Sorry trying to type and feed the baby at the same time, in order to rehabilitate prisoners they must want to be rehabilitated. Its a way of life for some of them.
I kind of agree Falk, but how many people in prison really benefit from it? Those serving short sentences won't get the help required because they're not there long enough for that help to be of benefit. Its those with longer sentences that benefit the most taking it the staff and support are there
Beginning in the early 1990s, the USA began to enact mandatory sentencing laws for repeat criminal offenders. These statutes came to be known as "three strikes laws," because they were invoked when offenders committed their third offense. By 2003 over half the states and the federal government in the USA had enacted three strikes laws. The belief behind the laws was that getting career criminals off the streets was good public policy.
Do YOU think it would be good public policy in the UK? WE HAVE A THREAD ON IT! Chime in with your views!
