Thanks for the reply. My question is: How can you expect to rehabilitate offenders outside the prison system after they are locked away like animals for many years in the company of other criminals. Try locking up a dog in a tiny cell and then letting him back out on the street, I wouldn't to be the person opening the door. The rehabilitation process should be part, and the main goal of the prison system - they cannot be separated. Western countries such as Finland, Sweden, and Norway who treat prisoners like human beings and give them life skills and work expereince while in prison, experience the lowest recidivism rates.
