Crime and punishment
I am one of those people who
would like to see changes made to current types of punishment in the criminal
justice system. It would surely be better to sentence minor offenders to
community service of some kind, rather than giving them fines or prison
sentences. That way they would at least do something useful, and the justice
system would also save money. I would also imagine that this would work better
for young offenders, as they wouldn’t feel “cool” or fashionably “bad” while
they helped an old person or cleaned the streets. Of course, a system of this
kind wouldn’t work effectively without some thought being given to the tasks
which offenders were asked to perform. There would obviously be more benefit to
be gained from work which involved responsibility, and where offenders had to
mix with others and communicate with them. Some people also think that
offenders should meet and talk to their victims, and be more involved with
compensating and even helping them. This would certainly help to make offenders
realize the consequence of their actions, and that might well stop them
offending again.
