Surely a rehabilitated offender would be less likely to commit crimes.
Also, having served their time, why should they be punished further?

ah, so nobody ever goes on to commit another crime after being supposedly rehabilitated?
"got it".

Is rehabilitation not a part of our criminal justice system?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Wed 1 Oct 2014, 13:32, Reply)

are you saying it's 100% effective?

( rachelswipe with a fork, Wed 1 Oct 2014, 13:33, Reply)

Not at all.
In fact I think we should probably invest more money into it.
We could fund this with an increase in the top rate of tax.

Norway has some of the lowest rates of recidivism
and has a prison system that is seen as soft... i.e. only being able to give Anders LOL MASTER Brevik 25 years

I don't think you understand how a democracy is supposed to work.

No one is saying that.

not really unfortunately
i'd split sentences into halves, first half, awful punishment second half proper rehabilitation and slow reintroduction into civilian life with proper housing and job finding support

really? I'm pretty sure that serial rapists retain the rape urge after they leave prison, that's why we have the sex offenders list and control orders
or are you saying once crims get out of prison they never ever commit another crime?
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 1 Oct 2014, 13:30, Reply)

i think he's saying we can totally trust the assessments of people who consider them to be rehabilitated
one of my friends does this job. she's just settled down with a man who met her when he was married, lied to her and his wife for 4 years, including such gems for why he couldn't leave the wife as "my dad's dying of cancer" (he wasn't), "my wife will hurt the child, she has mental health issues" (she doesn't), "the kid burned itself and we're in A&E" (it hadn't), "i'm moving to china with work" (he was in derby all along)... then came back to her when his wife booted him out. and she believes he'll never lie or cheat on her.

i really hope she's not representative of their gullibility.

it's key word "barnes" now, the cunt's moved down here and she's moved down with him
if you and mrs ape had split up, would you voluntarily move 200 miles away from the mini apes, so you only saw them once a fortnight? i think the fact that he's done this is proof that he's not normal...
