10 pages at least, i’ll get the biscuits….
In all seriousness though, if you talk to most coppers they will tell you who is committing the most crime in their area, repeat offenders tend to be neither clever nor repentant….it makes sense that if they are locked away then crime falls….
…however there is always someone to replace them and always a first time offender somewhere….we’ve had crime for as long as we’ve had people.
Depends how you see prison also….is it about rehabilitating the crims?….or simply keeping them away from the law abiding?….i’d like to think a bit of both but thankfully i dont have any first hand experience!
